  • ryanblock: @joemfbrown Of course! But I try not to be discreet with my note-taking. Says more about me than them, though, guess I'm easily distracted.

  • ryanblock: Whenever I do a call with media I find that the volume of the interviewer's typing is inversely proportionate to my level of concentration.

  • ryanblock: Fwding a question from a pal: pro-photographers, what would you charge for a small/spot photo in an international mag with huge circulation?

    11:12:46 pm on October 5, 2009 |

     

  • ryanblock: @rockbandit Yep, we definitely do. Unless it's something that one of us uses *exclusively* (i.e. @Veronica's laptop isn't on my have list).

    10:40:07 pm on October 5, 2009 |

     

  • ryanblock: @dstarh Totally.

    08:10:13 pm on October 5, 2009 |

     

  • ryanblock: Customer service hint no. 253: don't call someone and then ask them to verify their identity. YOU called THEM.

  • ryanblock: @ethank Also, I'd say "poor performance" isn't exactly a "small thing!"

    07:43:22 am on October 5, 2009 |

     

  • ryanblock: @ethank Yeah, but poorly performing smartphones is mostly status quo outside the world of the 3GS / Blackberry.

    07:30:32 am on October 5, 2009 |

     

  • ryanblock: If there is one small thing about Android that annoys me to absolutely no extent, it's the inability to manually check for OS updates.

    07:19:50 am on October 5, 2009 |

     

  • ryanblock: @CoffeeGeek Ha! I might even ask for one to check out, but I can't get over how horrendously ugly it is!

    07:42:02 pm on October 3, 2009 |

     

  • ryanblock: Ha! Palm webOS 1.2.1 re-enables iTunes syncing. Guess this means they're taking on Apple AND the USB-IF. Fight the good fight!

  • ryanblock: Seems like no one agrees on JBOD. I'm personally in the camp that it's a bunch of drives + volumes, not a large, concatenated volume.

    09:35:20 pm on September 29, 2009 |

     

  • ryanblock: Poll: JBOD refers to 1) a bunch of drives each with its own volume, or 2) a bunch of drives all concatenated into one big volume?
