Happy Thankgiving (for Engineers)

by Jeff Hester · Nov 24, 2005

For the first time in many years, we’re not hosting Thanksgiving dinner. I’ll be traveling to my brother-in-law’s home in Fallbrook my fill of turkey, football and family.

Phillip Torrone on Podcasting

by Jeff Hester · Nov 11, 2005

Torrone came to fame working at Engadget.com producting great how-to’s. He now works at MakeZine.com which is sort of like the old Popular Mechanics but for the modern age. His podcast for Make uses low-end, accessible solutions (just what I’m looking for!). He used to use Skype (which I love) but now uses Gizmo Project […]
