Um… I’m in Vegas

Posted on May 26, 2005 by bkjones

I flew into Las Vegas yesterday for one of my best friend’s bachelor party. I had no desire to come to Vegas, but I have to say it’s cooler than I thought it would be. We’re staying at the MGM Grand, and I got to see a few other places yesterday and today. So far,…

The Media Problem

Posted on May 24, 2005 by bkjones

As I see it, there’s an inherent problem with the scenario that currently exists in the media, whereby people who go to school for… journalism, end up writing about everything else. For example, what exactly qualifies a writer to write about technology? Is it good enough that they once were considered a guru at their…

Posted on May 17, 2005 by bkjones

Well, I got an “A” in my math class, too! I was expecting a B or maybe an A-, so this is really really good news. My cumulative GPA now (er, with a whole two courses under my belt, mind you), is a 4.0!

The Curse of Geekhood

Posted on May 16, 2005 by bkjones

Being a geek is a blessing and a curse. The blessing part is that I haven’t seen any popups, gotten a virus, had a catastrophic desktop system crash, or had any of the issues people complain about every day. It’s also nice that if I need software to do something it currently doesn’t do, I…

If you use mapquest, read this

Posted on May 4, 2005 by bkjones

I can see it playing out like a movie. The head muckety-muck over at Google emails the big cheese over at mapquest. The mail says, simply “Good morning. I believe I’ve just put you out of business. No hard feelings.” The big cheese at mapquest runs home, only to be found by his wife later…

Upcoming Final Exams :-(

Posted on May 3, 2005 by bkjones

Sorry for the recent silence. I’ve had a rash of smaller tests at school, and now I’m prep’ing for finals. I took two classes this semester. Computer Science 102 (basically, a class in how to program in C++), and College Algebra (er, that’s essentially Algebra II). I have an “A” in both classes right now,…
