While it may seem like there isn't much to a streetcar, the view is very different once you get above or below one of the trains. Each train has several hundred, if not thousand parts to maintain.
I have to be honest, it’s really hard remembering everything this past year, so I am cheating a bit. This is apparently the second year in a row I’m kicking things off from the West Coast. In fact, I haven’t celebrated New Years from back home on the East Coast since […]
If you’re looking for a casual Sunday read, this isn’t it. I’ve talked about life on here many times in the past, but I don’t think I’ve ever really touched on the subject matter of family. I’d say we’re a pretty average family, and thus there usually isn’t much to […]
When I started ai in 2007, I knew where I would want the company to go if we lived in an ideal world. But, reality is much different: a much smaller company, and a much smaller target market. I’m actually fine with that. For the last eight years, ai was […]
Today, I’m thrilled to announce we’re forming a joint-venture with Drexel TechServ to help launch their CatServ Usability service. We think we have finally found the ultimate test in determining if a site features good design or not. For many years, cats have tried to assist us as we surf […]
First, yes, that is a horrible name for a product. I’m working on it, but it’s not what’s important. What is important is that it is finally optimized for what it was designed for: any device you might be holding at a bus stop.* *Almost any device. Project Getting There […]
Three years ago today, I had the crazy idea to start this blog. It feels like longer, given that this is now my fourth year at Drexel. It’s not my final year at Drexel though, as I’m on our five year program, but it is beginning to feel like things […]
Today I’d like to make an important announcement concerning my future studies at Drexel. After four years and three co-ops in IT, I’ve decided its time for a change. Technology has always been one of my passions and it will continue to be so even though I’m changing my major. […]
Like all good stories, it’s time for the story of my time in Melbourne to end. This week is my last full week here and while I wish I could slow down time, I’m sure this week will be over before I know it. I think I’ll save my closing […]
From all of us at ai, we hope you have a fantastic New Years and wish for your 2014 to be a year of dreams come true.
I don’t usually write Christmas cards, and, well, this isn’t exactly a card, is it? Nonetheless, I figure it’s about time I got used to doing it, you know, being 21 and all that jazz now. So here goes. As I’ve previously mentioned, I’m in Sydney at the moment. Dad […]
Note: This is another post from the backlog, written October. Please adjust date and time references accordingly 😉 A couple of weeks ago, I had one of my typical Sunday visits to the State Library turn into a visit that left me with a mission to complete. I was catching up […]
Here in the US, turning 21 pretty much just means one thing: legal drinking age. Here in New Jersey, it also means changing my driver’s license from a portrait rotation to a landscape one. That said, in all honesty, I don’t care that I’m 21 now. While I’ve said many […]
To all Zelda Reorchestrated fans, both long-time and recent, and to all of those who have lurked as well: First of all, the views that will be written here are my own. This post is in no way on behalf of the team, nor does it reflect their views (probably). […]
Two years ago today at 14:46 (2:46PM) JST, a magnitude 9 earthquake shook the Tohoku region of Japan, followed by several aftershocks and tsunami waves up to 40.5 meters (133 ft). While several media outlets did over exaggerate the disaster, the earthquake left 15,881 dead, 6,142 injured, and 2,668 missing. Even today, Fukushima remains a […]
From all of us here at ai, we hope you and your family have a safe, joyous, and merry Christmas. Earlier this year, we celebrated our first birthday and for us, we consider that the best gift we could receive this year – even if it was early by quite […]
At ai, we believe in being open and honest when it comes to your privacy. That’s why effective immediately, we are rolling out a completely rewritten privacy policy. Our new policy outlines specifically what information we collect, what third-parties we use and partner with, and what, if any, information they report back […]
