A Geek Christmas Story

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

The Friends in Tech group has released our Christmas special, A Geek Christmas Story today.

“Mattie Stevens, a young boy of the early 80’s, dreams of owning a Commodore 64. He sets out to convince everyone this is the perfect gift. But, along the way runs into opposition from his parents and everyone around him including old Santa Claus”

Unfortunately, I didn’t get a chance to participate in this year’s Christmas special (A story for another time in itself…), but I know that a lot of hard work went into it, from FiT members and special guests, and that all that work really shows in the final production. Give it a listen and enjoy the geek humor, and if you enjoy this special, check the bottom of the post for links to previous FiT specials, some of which I did play a small part in. 🙂

    This morning, my wife was hosting a bridal shower/brunch at our house, so I needed to occupy myself away from the house for a couple of hours. Given the gray, cruddy weather, my options were somewhat limited, but I had read a number of positive reviews of Shine a Light, the Martin Scorcese filmed Rolling…

    Thanks to the folks at Manager Tools, I learned about this tool. Rather than describe it to you, I’ll simply copy the description from this article about where the idea came from, and what it seeks to accomplish: We thought we might develop a list of small, online kindnesses based on our mix of experience…

    So which is the worse email fail. The other day, after replying back and forth with someone for part of the morning, over lunch I got 4 error messages from the remote email server that my messages hadn’t been delivered. The ones that had already been replied to. That same night, the US Postal Service…
