SMACK! 1/30/2010

Well the "transition" smacked me in the face on December 7th. My position at my employer was eliminated and I was laid off,first thing Monday morning on my first day back from vacation. What a great way to start off a week.

So since them I have been networking and looking for a new position. I have had a few phone interviews but nothing solid yet. Hopefully soon something will pan out.

On the technology side I have been looking at different Radio streaming providers. Last.FM, Pandora, and Slacker are the three I have tried. I like all of them, need to figure out which one I like best and stick to it.

I have also been playing with Boxee. A GREAT Media Center app. It is one of those things that makes me wish I had more media to work with. I guess I need to get to ripping those dvd's I have. Boxee also has some great apps, allowing you to get media from a HUGE number of different places (including Pandora and Last.FM, no Slacker app that I know of).

Ok that is enuf ramblin for now. Wish me luck in my job search !
