Chomping at Chandler

The Google Mac blog talks about accessing various Google APIs from Cocoa, including the Google Calendar API.

Nice.

I was replying to mail Priscilla sent about the OSAF wikis and a few times I thought about just closing my email and forgetting it - it was mostly a negative, griping message.

I stopped myself from closing the mail because I kept remembering that this was my “ofice chatter” bandwidth, and I need to keep it flowing.

1. My ability to chat with people at work is limited, so I push myself to send mail/instant messages/IRC comments more often.
2. However, I’m keenly aware of people’s time and avoid consumption of it if possible.

These two ideas are at odds, but because I work remotely, I need to pay more attention to the former than the latter.

It is better to be a bit of an online windbag than to be an isolated techno-hermit.

When you edit an OSAF wiki page, the left and top bars go away. Below are pictures of the wiki before and after editing.

The oinly way to fix this is to delete the cookie made by wiki.osafoundation.org:

I am listening to episode 29 of the Inside the Net podcast and the topic of the episode is “Calendar Swamp”, which is the name of a website run by Scott Mace.

Chandler is mentioned 4 minutes and 11 seconds in.
