On my other blog I’ll be writing a series of articles in November on improving your memory. I’m also giving away a classic book on the subject. It’s bloody easy to win: just head over to Memory Month Contest and post a comment.

Yesterday, two members of my team took me on a day trip to Golconda Fort and Charminar.

This weekend we celebrated Dan and Colin’s birthdays with a barbecue and a night of karaoke. Stellar.

I’m launching a new blog today: wondr.net. This won’t replace my current blog which will remain as my personal journal. The content on the new site will be for a wider audience and of a less personal nature. I hope to also have some guest bloggers in the not-too-distant future. So what is this new blog, you ask? Well..think of it as a less ambitious mix of BoingBoing, Lifehacker, and wikiHow–basically stuff I think is cool with a focus on great designs, tips to be more frugal with time and money, and neat tools.

I sang Johnny Cash this weekend. I sang “Folsom Prison Blues” and people at the karaoke bar cheered. Girls wanted to dance with me; guys told me I did a good job singing while they slapped me on the back. It wasn’t me they were cheering–it was the Man in Black. What was it about Johnny Cash that people respect? I have my own opinions, but tell my yours in a comment. I’ll give you a hint: he had a few traits that all of humanity respects and a few that all women adore and all men aspire to. And that’s why I’ll keep singing his songs. I’ve got a few songs of his in the playlist on my myspace profile if you need some reminders.
