This one had me rolling:

• iPhone app development in full swing
• Finished up a couple of web apps for Cisco
• Updating Mac app for Sharp Labs, deployment imminent
• I has new stove. Bertazzoni. DOPE
• Renewing my love for Ant. And yes I use it for PHP, JS, etc..

I have been wanting to do this ride all year and finally on a whim decided to do it. I left from my house and rode to Vista House (in the Columbia Gorge) and back. Other than the ugly part through suburban Portland, it was an amazing ride - can’t wait to do it again (maybe next week). Here is a picture of the Gorge, with Vista House perched on the edge…

So I did buy a house, which is why I have not posted anything in over a month! Hectic! On the work front, I am working on a few miscellaneous projects for Cisco, which is pretty cool. It also looks like I’ll be doing some updates to some of my existing software over at Sharp Labs. In between that, Ruth and I are hard at work at casa Wardy, with a kitchen remodel (doing the work ourselves) and trying to get settled in.

Apple should add microformat detection on the iPhone in Safari. Maybe it could work like this: If a valid hCard is detected on a page, there could be a visual cue of some sort letting the user know; When clicked the user would be prompted with a preview of the detected hCard attributes and be asked whether they wanted to add that person/business to their contacts. Obviously, Safari on the iPhone already detects phone numbers and will dial them when clicked - but adding hCard detection really would be the most logical since you have the opportunity to capture a lot more information as a contact.

So I pushed out a new site for the business, check it. In other news, barring some major catastrophe I will be a first-time homeowner in the coming week(s?). I can’t wait to actually have a yard. And a grill. It has been far too long (6 years!).
