I resigned as COO from SlashChick's company, Simpli Hosting, Inc, last week.

I am now hopping around the East Coast and clearing my head before I go back to the Bay Area and start up doing my own consulting thing.

I'm in DC right now, and will be for another couple of days, and then will probably be back here next week for a few days again as well.

Besides that, I'll be in NYC for the bulk of next week and all of next weekend (it's my birthday weekend, and I'll be spending it with a bunch of old friends).

I also may make a quick jump up to the Boston / Cambridge area to see some family and friends as well and to potentially find out what this kitten of Blinder and Sol's is all about.

In short, I'm available for complimentary dinner and beer in all the above cities if anyone wants to meet my unemployed self while I'm bouncing around :)

Razer Copperhead

So I bought a Razer Copperhead off of Woot a few weeks ago when it was $35, but never got around to actually plugging it in any playing with it.

Holy hell, this is the most sensitive, most awesome mouse I've ever used in my life.

I am floored by how awesome it is.

I'm that guy who really hates how insensitive mice are, the kind where when most people sit down at my desk, ask me how the hell I can use the mouse because it's so sensitive and flies across the screen. That's when I complain it's still choppy and not good enough for me.

This is supposed to be a gaming mouse. This mouse will be seeing a lot of firefox and MS Office utilities instead.

Hell, it's got 7 (seven!) buttons. You can even assign macros to them. For instance, as of right now, the button under my thumb's knuckle is macro'd to ctrl-t. I can now open new tabs in firefox without touching the keyboard :)

And yes, I know someone is going to mention mouse gestures here. I do not care; I can click a button on mouse to accomplish the same thing!

I am very very very happy with this new mouse.

My former roommate even put together a myspace page for me *shudder* with a photo I'm not particularly keen on and some funky wording "in the dating arena" ... wtf?

Are we all happy now that I'm on the social networking bandwagon? I blame SlashChick, Em Emalb's latest journal entry regarding Multiply, and the word "argh".

I'm just happy I never joined dodgeball! Oh wait, twitter's worse.

Do I get a special badge and at least a complimentary pat on the back now?

As opposed to PEBKAC, this one is Problem Exists Between Brain And Mouth.
