in The morning habit of highly effective people - wake up for yourself on Sol Young's Disqus
I enjoy running to. It clears my head and I just get to enjoy the beauty of being outside. How do you like Nike+? I've been thinking about getting it. My nano is shot and now I have an ipod touch so not sure if it works with that.

Sol Young The only thing I don't like about Nike+ is that it's Nike. I'm a devout Asics Gel Kayano runner and I have take a razor knife them to embed the accelerometer. This isn't really a problem though - after installation it's unnoticeable.

There are three differences I find with Nike+ versus running free. First, one can go back and see an honest representation of what they've run. Second is the effect on the competitive types... We don't want today's time/distance to be slower/shorter than yesterday.

I hear rumors of the iPhone and iPod Touch supporting Nike+ in June. This is highly likely given the availability of the SDK.

Mine was a 1972 Toyota Corona. No one ever wanted to ride with me which was ok because it meant I saved on gas :)

in How to Learn (But Not Master) Any Language in 1 Hour (Plus: A Favor) on The Blog of Author Tim Ferriss
The Navy paid a few hundred thousand dollars to send me to language training 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, for a year and a half to learn arabic. Maybe I should send a link to this post to them :)

in Bloggers, Don’t Do What I Just Did on David Risley
I don't think it's important to blog every day. If you're a newsie blogger, then maybe, but other bloggers, I don't think so. What I think is better is consistency. I know one blogger who makes a really solid blog post every thursday. I look forward to it every week. On one of my blogs I only post 1-2 times a week and it works for that blog. I think how often you blog really depends on the type of blog and your blogging goals.

in Twitter - I Finally Found a Use on David Risley
I'm still not sold on Twitter. Do people REALLY care that I just picked my dinner out of my teeth? Or that I'm sitting here watching Jason and the Argonauts? I doubt it.

in How To Explain Blogging To Granny on David Risley
I recently experienced this when I visited my parents who I hadn't seen in a few years. Back then I had one blog and it was more of a hobby blog. But Now I blog several places, run a community for bloggers, and spend my time reading blogs. This was hard for them to get. They are both businessmen/women though so I brought it to their level.

in Buying Blogs to Flip on Technosailor
I've recently been keeping my eyes out for websites or domains that I can "flip". Blogging seems like it could work for you since its your niche.

I don't think its a bad idea if you have a good model to follow. Just make sure your model is profitable obviously.

in Identifying the Key Issue for 2008 on Technosailor
Having just recently moved from a border town in arizona (moved away a year ago) it is hard not to agree with what John McCain presented before the Senate Committee on Judiciary.



One day we were hiking up a peak in Sierra Vista, AZ and came across a group of illegals (as they are often referred to) all rounded up. Men and women of all ages; grandparents and children; all sitting together surrounded by border patrol agents. This was hard to see; it definitely tugged at my heart. You knew all these people wanted was a better life for themselves and their family and who am I to want to deny them this?



But, this being said, as we continued our hike, we countinued to see signs of immigrants, trash, empty water bottles, etc. Then we saw people camping, with guns. Apprently you don't camp in the Huachuca Mountains without a gun because not everyone is as harmless as the group that we came across earlier in the hike.



While, my heart may tell me one thing at times, my head tells me the complete opposite. We really need to focus on securing the border with a larger presence and more control. We need to do what we need to do to protect our country and the people that live here.
