Phishy

Phishy

One problem with OAuth and similar authentication systems -- When the browser is embedded in the application (as in this case with AirMe, but I also saw it in Exposure) with no URL visible, you have no idea if you're giving your username and password to Yahoo, or to some phisher.

The game gets halted for 90 minutes. Thankfully, the tarp came off and the Sox won 6-4.

Torch protest

Torch protest

The "Free Tibet" and "Free Darfur" groups were protesting the torch, but a visibly larger group of Chinese supporters were protesting the protesters.

And in the end, the torch didn't come anywhere near us!

My Chumby, powered-up, and making my life approximately 65% better by displaying a live feed from the San Diego Zoo Pandacam.

I believe it can perform other tasks too, but who cares? PANDAS!

Today at DevHouseBoston2, Shimon Rura, Jeff Potter and myself started work on creating a local geek-event aggregator/notifier webapp.

With a design sensibility somewhere between Craigslist and Upcoming, it should be live in the next couple of weeks.

Joy enjoying a cola at Carl’s Jr.

As part of our tour of California, we've been attempting to sample the fast food at the chains that are only found on the west-coast.

The Six Dollar Burger at Carl's Jr, the Double-Double Animal Style at In-N-Out and a Jumpin' Jack at Jack in the Box have all been devoured. Plus shakes and/or malts at each -- The Carl's Jr. Caramel Malt is my favourite so far.

The weight-loss starts when we get back home.

This was out number 24 en route to what looked like a no-hitter.

LOUDER! NOISE!

Apparently, in Oakland the crowd need to be *told* to cheer their team.

Here's what it looked like from Row 35 in Section 110 of the McAfee Coliseum. The tickets were considerably cheaper (and easier to come-by) than their Fenway equivalents.
