The Unanswered Question, The Answered Perception

Being that it was just Memorial Day weekend, the unofficial start of summer in the US, I took the time to be like many and get on the road a bit. What was supposed to be two cities in three days has turned into four cities in five. Lots of driving, and therefore people and questions about me and what I do abound.

Sketchnote of My Mind

This is how my mind sees the concept (and my vocation) mobile ministry. Anytime mobile anything is mentioned, this is what my mind goes through to process it.

Fun, ain’t it?

Thoughts on Disruptive Technologies

Moving to a new device has also had the benefit of having me think again about disruptive technologies and how that factors into use, thought, and future-things. I’ll admit that I have been intrigued by the ideas behind Nenya lately (wearable computing sits as something I’d like to explore more), but its probably Nokia’s statements towards MeeGo being used for disruptive technologies that’s anchored some of my more recent thoughts.

Thoughts on Evolving my Mobile Web Server Use

Having moved to a new device (the Nokia N8), I am facing the reality that my use of (any) mobile web server might be over. Such a realization isn’t well received on my end, and last night, I spent some time in Tactilis thinking about where I’ve been with this concept of a mobile web server, and what an evolution would look like for me.

Upgrades and Future Storage Handling

At the time of writing, I’m in the process of combining the contents of 2GB and 8GB microSDHC cards with the content from my N97′s 32GB mass storage area onto a single 32GB card. As far as I can recall, it will be the first time in a few years that I would have centralized my local storage needs. And I’m finding that both the choice to do this (upgrade) and where I’ll go in the future (access) have to be taken a bit more deliberately.

Have Just About Ditched MS Office

Had two situations recently that pretty much cemented in my mind that I’ve just about ditched MS Office as the means that I would go about relating to data (whether writing or presenting). Both moments were pretty interesting, and to a large extent, had a decent amount of foreshadowing.

Project Aura: A Bicycle Lighting System

Given that its Bike to Work Week during Biking Month, I should probably be posting a bit more towards biking and what I’m doing. But to be honest, I’ve not done much at all on my bike lately. It has been a hard restart to riding this year, partially because of my bike’s location of being no where near those kinds of places that I would usually ride. That, and the slightly pressing travel schedule have pushed biking further to the edge of my life than I’d really like it to be. And yet, there’s a glimmer of light that I’ll get back on, and that innovations like the Project Aura Bike Lighting System could push me out there just a bit more.
