Going to California

I’ve never wireless-blogged before, so what the hell. Currently killing time at Seatac waiting for a flight.

Off to the MySQL conference in San Jose. If there’s anyone on my FL in the area who wants to hook up for a beer or such, shoot me an email.

Alaska overbooked the flight and asked people to volunteer for a later flight in exchange for first class tickets and a free roundtrip anywhere they fly. The three of us (me and 2 workmates) agreed to take it.. so now we’re just waiting for the next flight. I wonder if that one is overbooked, maybe we can trade up again. First class on a later flight and 1 meeeellion dollars! I’ll have to ask. Will update later.

wtf?

If you’re a programmer, I highly recommend The Daily WTF (Thanks Ben!).

Best laugh I’ve had in ages, really.

Bandwagon time

Google have launched their IM client here. Yeah, it’s another IM client, but it’s exactly what I’m looking for – clean, uncluttered, does text/voice and does it well (voice clarity is superb). I’m sick of MSN messenger and all its stupid built in ads for shitty shows on Fox that I never watch, nudges, winks and other AOL style garbage.

Anyway, if anyone wants to try it out, you can add me as jamesgurney@gmail.com – and if anyone wants a gmail invite, lemme know.
