Upon moving from Germany my life has changed, and until July 3rd, when we finally move into a house, I will not get much time to blog. I have a bunch of ideas lined up, but let me tell you some of my favorite things about the past couple weeks:
- Free South Park Episodes online - Perfect for boring hotel nights
- Motorola V360 - In my opinion the best phone for its price, when I get time a review will follow…
- T-Mobile - Free calls nation wide to other T-Mobile users (Chad), great service, powerful signal strength, free nights + weekends…awesome service!
- My Macbook Pro - I bought it yesterday with my student discount from Towson, its amazing. (Review to come)
- Free iPod Nanos and Printers from Apple - Two great deals from Apple, crafty.
- Digg v3 - Kevin Rose has done well, I can’t wait until he pounds Netscape.
So I guess moving back to the states hasn’t been so bad after all, despite the weather…

In light of some of my favorite bloggers telling you about their busy lives, I’ve decided to tell you zamwiers what I’ve been up to…
Since Wednesday night I have:
- Said Good bye to my best friends in Germany = (
- Checked out of the Arms
- Flown to Chicago from Frankfurt International Airport
- Connected in Chicago and flown to Baltimore
- Visited my friend Ryan on the Eastern Shore
- Checked out the Apple store and priced my Mac Book Pro
- Visited downtown Annapolis and the Naval Academy
- Had a “Welcome Home” party
- Played terrible in Wiffle Ball
- Ate Chic-Fil-A
- Picked up a nice cell phone (review to come)
- Watched an Orioles game
Moving “home” has been tough, I’ve been home-sick for Germany and despite most of my friends leaving it still feels tough….
Anyway, I am connected here with my Mac Mini, it made it through customs and everything, and I am using some nice high speed internet.

I saw an article the other day on del.icio.us about why MySpace should not be considered Web 2.0. Their reasoning was that the video section of MySpace only plays Windows Media 9+ files on Internet Explorer.

I’ll be the first to admit I do not know much about soccer, but for some reason watching the World Cup in Germany is an experience that I will miss in 8 days when I come back to the states.

I am homeless…to a certain degree. Actually, if you live in the U.S. right now you are paying for my home. No, I’m not on wellfare, my family is in a hotel as we depart to go back to the states. While in the hotel I had to have internet, as I have already mentioned. Unfortunately, my Mac Mini is airportless, so I decided to look around for another option while I was stuck in a hotel.

I recently did not get into 9rules, which is sort of what I have been trying to do with this website for a long time. The new sites rock, but not getting in has allowed me to re-evaluate what I want to do with this website…things happen for a reason.

I got to do something really interesting today, in my Career Practicum job, which I work for our school district doing video and tech related projects, I was able to meet with the electronic tech (ET) administrators to talk a bit about web 2.0
