I’m moving both my domain name, kryptech.name, and web hosting to Cirrus Logic. Thus there may be some downtime here until everything is fully moved over. [update – d23]OK, so the domain name transfer finally went through and the DNS is pointing to Cirrus. I’m uploading images now but I probably won’t have time to ...

“Light of the world,You stepped down into darkness…”May you have a blessed Christmasand a happy New Year.Chris

As of August 22, 2009 I’ve been on Twitter. You can find me at http://twitter.com/kryptech. I originally signed up just to see what Twitter was about. I didn’t intend to post regularly. In the past month or so I’ve been posting Tweets more frequently, focusing more on technology rather than personal news. I figure Twitter ...

I’m currently enjoying my first coffee in a week. This is for a different reason then my previous “coffee break”. Our church’s young people group is studying Do Hard Things and after the last lesson Kate challenged us to drink only water (for beverage – we could still eat!) for a week. Then for the ...

This morning I attended the Remembrance Day service in Newcastle. I heard there has been a greater turn-out this year in the GTA, perhaps due to grim reminders we’ve been receiving all too often of the death of another soldier in Afghanistan. So our memories turn to recent events in addition to those from many ...

It’s pretty much been forever since I’ve updated anything here. In terms of photos, I have been doing some work on a new photo viewer as I dislike the user-unfriendly interface in place now.

I thought I’d post those here and add to it as necessary. Maybe ...

At Christmas I was pleasantly surprised to receive The Orange Box from Dad (thanks!). This game deal of the century includes Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episodes 1 & 2, Portal, and Team Fortress 2. I’m very fond of the Half-Life series, of which I previously purchased Half-Life Anthology (HL1, Blue Shift, Opposing Force, and Team Fortress ...

Last night I finally got some snowboarding time in. I heard that some of the gang heads to Kirby most Tuesday evenings so I thought I’d tag along. Snow conditions weren’t awesome but decent, and the weather really wasn’t very cold. During the first run of the season I always wonder how quickly I’ll find ...

It seems to good to be true, quite honestly. As of last Thursday evening I’m the joyful owner of a new HTC Touch Pro phone. As per my post back in June on what I want in a smartphone, I’d been keeping my eye on the Touch Pro and its eventual arrival in our fair ...
