From the last article, I hope you are now wondering “where do I get this awesome thing called S/MIME certificate!”, and the other kicker “What’s it going to cost me?” Well you are in luck because email certificates can be obtained for free! There are two site (that I know of) that provide free S/MIME email certificates: Instant SSL and Start SSL. [ Read More... ]
I spent two days working at Santa Catalina School, (Monterey, CA), and at the end of the second day I went out and capture some pictures of their facilities because I have never seen a K-12 school look so beautiful. This is what landscape architecture majors dream of designing. Unfortunately I didn’t may much attention to each shot as I had limited time, so most of the pictures were set for Auto at ISO 200.

I have had intentions for some time on using my site for something other than announcements of Macworld/MacTech sessions, photographs while traveling for my job, and a simple resume placeholder. Now that WWDC 2011 is over and Apple has announced that Lion will be released in July with iOS 5 coming “this fall”, it seems the perfect time to start sharing knowledge with anyone who cares (my guess a total of five… maybe six people). Note: I will not violate my NDA with Apple. I know there are plenty of other technical (and rumor) sites that are going to be first in releasing information of what is new or “how to” articles, but that is their choice… and that blatant disregard of an agreement is not for me.

This set contains pictures during my Alaska trip in 2011. My Alaskan family flew me out (along with a camera crew from National Geographic) out to their camp down the Squirrel River. It was a wonderful time, one of those memorable moments that you wish you could describe in words and capture in pictures knowing they will never do justice to the experience. [ Read More... ]
