and a late start on 2006 taxes :) we’ve blown way past April 15th, 2007 and now it’s time to get them done. on the upside, doing this now is getting me extremely organized and ready for an easy filing of our 2007 taxes.

tip: get a fujitsu scansnap to scan all of your docs and organize them by date. our filing cabinet’s useful life is quickly winding down, and i love it.

I just saw this job posting on LinkedIn after logging in:

VP Engineering Co-Founder at Stealth Consumer Internet Startup

According to Google (search ‘define stealth’), stealth is defined as “avoiding detection by moving carefully”. I wonder how many companies have just popped up in the last ten years, surprising competitors and grabbing customers after moving so carefully that they weren’t detected. I find the usage of the word stealth in job postings to be really silly.

Check out micropledge.com; I would think smart software engineers could make a ton of money in tackling some of the quick hit requests.

if you’re looking for a great to do list tool, check out todoist. my business partner chris pointed it out to me the other day and it’s hands down the best i’ve seen.

that reminds me, i’m starting to see a bunch of *ist.com domains popup lately. it seems like that is the new *hq.com. i wonder if i should buy judgeist.com or judgehq.com…ha.

Just read this article from the New York Times in regard to Apple’s iPhone price drop. In Steve Job’s words:

“we have the chance to ‘go for it’ this holiday season”

I totally agree from a business perspective and as a shareholder to drop the price of the phone - it’s perfect timing given the proximity to the holiday season and Apple will do very well for dropping the price. Price drops happen all the time - usually not this quickly - but it’s just a nature of a capitalist economy. Just step back for a minute and think about the decision they just made from their position, it’s definitely the right one.

And besides - that’s what all you fanboys get for running out and spending $600 so that you could be the cool kid on the block :)
