Connecting Facebook with the blog

I’ve found a sweet plugin to port comments from Facebook to the blog. Even though the blog is more professional than personal, the posts there are far more interesting than the ones here. I would add this to FB as well, but they only allow a single blog to be imported.

2 more ticks off the Bucket List

I’ll tick visiting Turks and Caicos and seeing U2 live off my list in 2010. The only thing that will make it better is to be a torch bearer.

Volunteer Photographer

Well it’s official, I’ll be the one in charge of documenting (in stills) the first Timeraisers event in Edmonton. It should be a good time and a great experience for everyone. If you are finding this post through a search, and are looking for a volunteer for your event, please contact me and we can [...]

Timeraiser Edmonton

The Resort

Just in case anyone is wondering, or is trying to book (or had booked for them via Hotels.ca et.al) “The Resort at Canmore”, it doesn’t exist. It’s really the Worldmark by Wyndham.

Humpback!

1:49:40

Well, a personal best (and only right now) half marathon time of 1:49:40. In the end, it wasn’t as hard as I thought it was going to be. More later.

Sci100 Archivist

It looks like I will be headed to Jasper after Banff as the archivist for Science 100. I’ll be taking stills and video of all the cool goings on there.

Weddings going strong

Wedding bookings are going strong and it looks like I might be booked into May 2010.
