This is a list of songs I have in my music collection as of January 1, 2008. Many of these were ripped from CDs I had purchased made into DRM-free AAC files. I think some came from an online service. Enjoy getting glimpse into my weird music tastes!

I bought new cell phones (Motorola Razor v3) for the whole family and I’ve just gotten them connected to my laptop. I’m trying to get my calendar and contact list on Gmail to download to it. The MPT (Motorola Phone Tools) lets you tie Outlook or Lotus Notes to your phone. The 5th gen video ipod has a tool to convert Gmail Calendar into your iPod. That might be an interesting place to start. It would be nice to tie the calendar together for the whole family on our phones.

The phone itself is actually quite a powerful little toy. The mobile java is an interesting environment.

I’m not a writer but I’m going to try put some posts in here occasionally. We’ll see what happens.

Katie is going to China. She setup a blog on livejournal Kate Escape to talk about her travels here and in China.

Sam just got back from Spain Monday. He is taking entrance exams at NC State and Wake Tech CC. He did really well on them.

I’ll be moving the mcgarware and darkmagic web server, domain and email over this weekend to the new Sun Ultra server and network. Oh, boy. It should be fun.

The family Sam stayed with are here in the US in New York and heading down to see us this week. You’ll see some of that in Katies log. We will be traveling this month with them here and there. I’ll post more later on it.
