What We Did on Our Christmas Holiday

Mt. Everest conquered!

Too many books, too few train rides

How is it possible that while commuting 4 hours per day (weekday that is), I could possibly say that there are too few train rides? Well, looking at my to read list there are easily five books that are either in process or awaiting to be read.

From Drucker and Schumpeter in business and economics to Daniel Pink's new book about motivation called Drive to completing Superfreakonomics in the business vein. Then there is the Sherlock Holmes collection and Pat Conroy's latest and a few sci fi titles always in the wings.

Yes, so little reading time for my ever growing interests. But I am loving my Kindle app for iPhone as my e-reader of choice. The selection from Amazon with the discounted Kindle book prices combined with the reading ease and portability works for me.

Morning Train Activities

Riding on 6:56 train to work.

Organizing my HFA blog to add "blogs I follow" to add blog about Enterprise 2.0.

Trying to tie together blogs and twitters to control my information input stream which is always a challenge.

Testing the export to blog from The Journal and see that there is an upgrade to The Journal 5.0. WIll have to do that to add new features to a really good journaling system. Go here to check it out - http://www.davidrm.com/thejournal/

Entering the tunnel in a few minutes so better shut down the netbook and prepare for the subway portion of my commute.

Peace and Joy to you.

Survivormen out on Sunday Adventure

Adventure, you ask? You should have seen the wild geese and other waterfowl we had to chase off the pier. Luckily I have taught Survivorboy how to chase away geese by imitating an even bigger, noisier, and angrier goose. Works every time.
