I need an online calendar that supports multiple timezones

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

Every time I go to Google Calendar (gCal) it asks me if I want to change my default timezone to US Central Time. I don’t click ‘yes’ or ‘no’ because I don’t want it to mess up all my past and future calendar entries.
My current calendar workflow is as follows:

My last Sydney Adventure

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

Howdy friends, readers, and muppets!
This weekend is my last in Sydney for quite a while — SHOCK HORROR!!
Why won’t I be in Sydney? Well, I’m moving to America!
I really want to catchup and hang out with anyone that I haven’t seen in years or even months, so I’m dedicating this weekend to you.
Yes, [...]

I’m giving away all my “stuff”! (UPDATED again)

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

MAJOR UPDATE: Items crossed out have been sold or given away. There’s still lots available though!

This is a post aimed towards Australians (specifically my friends in Sydney), but anyone in the world can also take advantage of it.
It’s exactly two weeks before I zoom off on a plane to the USA. My ticket is one-way. [...]

I spent Australia Day inside

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

What’s new? I spend most days inside. Making. Creating. Moving this planet forward towards world peace.
I saw a story on the news about a week ago that mentioned Australians aren’t getting enough sun. Ha! They said there’s been an increase of people with Vitamin D deficiencies. Go figure; everyone’s on the internet. They (scientists/doctors) [...]

The Longer I Wait, the Less I Want to see Avatar

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

I’ve mentioned my thoughts on why I don’t really care to go see Avatar at the cinemas (in laa-dee-daa-fancy 3D).
I realised the other day that I have a complimentary pass to go see any movie at the IMAX theatre in Sydney. The IMAX here has the biggest screen in the world. Yeah, it’s pretty [...]

MeUpdate - January 22, 2010

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

Here’s an update of what I’ve been up to. Below the video is a brief summary of what’s discussed in the video. It’s well worth a watch.

On the first recording of this video I recorded an entire 50 minute video that didn’t have any audio. I’m thinking about uploading that video anyway and letting you [...]

Neil made me (kinda) like Rihanna

Sunday, January 17th, 2010

Gosh, it’s tough writing all these posts about liking music lately. Why? Because I typically don’t like new music. Especially new music owned by large record labels and played on commercial radio.
As I mentioned on Tuesday, I’ve been enjoying Jay-Z and Alicia Keys over and over every night. That’s satisfying this itch me ears seem [...]
