I've really enjoyed reading your blog so far, and it's good to hear someone else's perspective on all the crazy things happening in the technology world. Keep up the entertaining (and informative) work, and thanks for writing!

I got my first Mac when the original turquoise iMacs came out, thanks to using Macs at work (teacher). Since then, I’ve also had and sold the iMac “Snow”, and now have a 6 month old iMac intel 24″ running Leopard. It’s the best so far. I also have a 4 year old iBook G4 14″, which I carry back and forth to work. I’m not sure it will handle Leopard, but I may try it. I use Wacom Graphire tablets/pens with both, originally because I always wanted to go into commercial art, but didn’t, so art is a lifetime hobby. I love the pen/tablet for everything, though. No more mouse! No more batteries! No more hand cramps! I have an iPod video, and thanks to reviews here, now have a Nano with the Nike sensor.

I’m a “baby-boomer”, married to a PC guy (yes, they really exist, and opposites really do attract). No kids, except everyone else’s! My siamese cat walks across my keyboard, and my two beagles dislike the bright light of my new iMac’s wide screen. They do like celtic music on iTunes and the lightning bug screen saver with the cricket sounds, though!

I’m a CG artist working in Tokyo, Japan and I found your blog while looking for resources when I was setting up my blog. Your Wordpress and tech tips have been extremely useful.

Thanks a lot and happy new year. :]

I’m 17 (almost 18) years old. I host and produce the podcast Nerd News Radio, which I created in July 2005. ON October 29th, I led a session at PodCamp Boston 2 on Teen Podcasting. The session turned into a discussion on education, technology, teenagers, and new media.

Podcasting and Blogging has made me a more politically aware person. In addition, my writing has improved, and I have become a more confident public speaker.

At my high school, I am attempting to create a technology program for students and teachers (led by students). It will include a IT Strategy Team, a series of student-led courses, partnerships, and special initiatives.

I love your blog here, Paul. I don’t know what else to say. It’s been useful in so many different ways.

My name is Dave and I’m a second-year undergrad student in Ontario, Canada. I found this blog via Amber Macarthur, who, for those that don’t know, is something of a tech-celeb here in Canada. That was a while ago, probably around a year and a half. I myself am a blogger, but not in a really serious way. My readership consists of a few friends and family at its core. One day I might get into it more seriously.

I’m really interested in all things tech, especially web and media-related things. I’m currently majoring in English, a program whose content is a far-cry from the stuff I love reading about online. However, I think it’s the best general base for the multiple areas/careers I may pursue in the future. I’m interested in teaching technology/media related subjects, as well as journalism that specializes in these areas. As much as I like to consider myself computer/internet-savvy, it’s not uncommon for some of Paul’s posts to go way over my head, but I’m learning more all the time.

Paul, your blog is great, and your writing is excellent at doing the job its meant to do. (Conveying a lot of complex information concisely and clearly.) Also, the things you’ve done/are doing, plus the extent to which you’re smartly planning for your future are inspiring to me. Keep up the great work and all the best in this new year.

Cheers,
Dave

So… I’m Joel, an Aussie and an Engineer working in Australia’s electricity distribution industry (at the moment). Tomorrow though? Who knows :)

For ‘08? Keep on keeping on.

I became a reader after I stumbled across one of your reviews. I wanted to keep tabs on all the other shenanigans (can I say that here?) that would ensue.

Happy New Year.

Develop on the communityservers.com platform.

I love all your posts on new tech/sites, as well as insights and opinions on social networking trends.

Keep at it.

I love the mix of technology that you present on your blog, Paul. The reviews are helpful, and well written. I’ve also enjoyed the view on college life, as I’m in the middle of that too.

Anyway, this has been a wonderful blog. I love the Mac-related posts as I’m a Mac fanboy. But I also look forward to the Web-related ones that you post every now and then.

Keep up the good work!
