Especially just after releasing the beta version of The Othernet.

I thought I’d finally have a chance to take a break from coding.  You know…distance myself a little from my inner computer nerd and more seriously develop my pursuits of dance and music.

Looks like that will have to wait (for a moment).

Some of my users on www.readmandarin.com suggested that I develop an iPhone app version of the site.  Great idea!

So far I am really impressed!  I have newfound respect for Apple in terms of how polished the process looks (although I haven’t built anything yet).

Hopefully, I’ll have something rolled out in the next couple of weeks or so.

Ack!  Both hinges just cracked on my MacBook Air!  This little guy has been an awesome workhorse this last year, but sadly it looks like it’s time to put him out to pasture. :::sniff:::

Meanwhile, a temporary measure was needed.  Yes, that’s black duct tape!  Works great!  (actually…works only okay).

Maybe I should just grab a new hinge from my Apple Parts website.

Oh yeah, I’m out of stock!  These hinges are not easy to get!
