• Digsby FTW!

  I use a lot of IM clients. Both for work and what little social life I have. Googletalk, MSN, Yahoo, AIM, ICQ, and Skype. .. That's a lot of chat clients to be running all separately. I've tried Trillian , and just never really liked how it didn't integrate... Posted Feb 28 2008, 10:17 AM by Ryan with | with 9 comment(s) Filed under: work, Random, geek, tech

• First Live Orders!

  Well, I haven't been involved in this particular LARGE implementation from the start, but I've been a part of it for long enough to appreciate the pain and joys of working in the Software Industry. Yes, I look more crappy than usual, the co-workers decided... Posted Sep 22 2007, 10:42 PM by Ryan with | with 4 comment(s) Filed under: work

• Work, Work but Play-Time is Close!

  It's of no surprise to those who know me, I've been quite busy with work lately (read 2+ years of overtime). But I finally did put my foot down and planned a weekend off. How sad is it that I actually have to PLAN a weekend off from work? Heading to Seattle... Posted Aug 22 2007, 12:08 PM by Ryan with | with 9 comment(s) Filed under: work

• ChoreWars!

  Ok, so anyone who knows me, knows that I'm not the most organized kid on the block. At least as far as my life and house goes. Work, on the other hand is prolly the only thing I keep organized (as long as you don't look at my cubicle). I'm trying to turn...

• LinkedIn

  LinkedIn is one of the more overlooked social networks on the net in my opinion. I've decided to start using it more effectively. When i google myself the other day, my linkedin profile isn't even on the front page anymore! Sad! I found a good post 'Ten...

• The Power of Communication

  So, it's no mystery that if you have a job where you deal with people on a daily basis, you have to be professional in both your verbal and written communication, at least to a certain degree, depending on your time and relationship with them. Here is... Posted Nov 20 2006, 08:52 AM by Ryan with | with 1 comment(s) Filed under: work, n00bs

• Going Home

  :sigh: it's been a long month and a half here in South Africa. Many a long day/week. I'm actually surprised a little that I didn't crack some days. But I survived. As I type this I'm sitting in JHB international waiting for the flight... Posted Oct 27 2006, 10:02 AM by Ryan with | with no comments Filed under: Culture, work, South Africa
