Today I got a popup letting me know that PGP Desktop for Mac had been upgraded. I downloaded it and looked through the readme to see what was new. Apparently nothing has changed in the last two releases:

I went ahead and upgraded, but I’m not really sure why.

Yesterday was full of dissapointment and complaining about the lack of a mention of Lotus integration into the iPhone. However, it may be that Lotus never really had a chance to take part in the big show . Apparently Apple and Microsoft have been in talks to license ActiveSync […]

To anyone who follows the tech news at all, and probably even if you don’t, you likely already know that Apple made several announcements today related to the iPhone .

Apple released firmware update version 1.1.1 for the iPhone yesterday, but I was just too busy to preform the update so I am just completing it now. It did not go so well. After downloading the 152MB update it began to extract itself. While this was happening, the iPhone preformed a […]

A couple weeks back, as I’m sure you will recall, NBC parted ways with Apple apparently over the pricing of television shows available for download.

I love to read books, but lately have not been able to find the time to finish them. I am currently reading Body of Secrets: Anatomy of the Ultra-Secret National Security Agency by James Bamford. It is a very interesting look at the history behind the NSA…so far. I have been […]
