New blog

Hey, so I have my own website now, and I am in the middle of writing a blog for it. Comments are nonexistent right now, but it isn't like that matters, as nobody comments here anyway. I'll set up comments eventually. Anyway yeah:

http://istheguy.com/blog/

From now on I will be posting there. It is made by me, for me, and allows me to do a lot of cool stuff that blogger won't, so I am switching. Goodbye!

Zattoo

I just interviewed to intern at Zattoo, and the job sounds pretty sweet.  I usually just do stuff on the web, but this job would have me maintaining actual software.  I've wanted to get in on the software scene for a long time.

Apparently I would be helping to streamline the process of updating software, which is pretty hard to do when you constantly have people using the program.  It sounds like a totally stressful (but you know, in a good challenging way, not a bad headachy way) and fun.  It'd be really good for me, I'm sure.

I feel like it used to be that there was hardware and software, but now software is kind of in the middle with web applications taking its place (or further abstracting it).  I wonder what will come next?

Oh and also this internship works out I probably have to go to Zurich, which would be just sick as hell.  I haven't been off this continent since 2002, and I could use an opportunity to practice my French chops.
