Seth needs software for the Pan-Mass Challenge - donate today!
TruerWords: Donate Software for the Pan-Mass Challenge!
Once again, Seth is riding (300 miles in 3 days) in the Pan-Mass Challenge, which raises money for cancer care, treatment and research.
Two years ago, Seth auctioned off software donated by its developers as part of his fundraising efforts. This year, he's doing it again, and needs to get the word out so developers can get in for the cause.
If you are a software developer that can donate products, or know someone who can, please get in contact with Seth!

iTunes on Windows, it's like drinking ice water in hell
Video from Brightcove: Steve Jobs at D (direct link to the video)
A good interview, ending with a monster quote for the ages... Steve was asked how many copies of iTunes were out there, he said several times as many as there are iPods, implying at least 300M copies. The interviewer (I think it was Walt Mossberg but I honestly don't know) said that makes Apple a major Windows developer. Jobs nods, and says they've received cards and letters from people saying iTunes is their favourite application on Windows, and says:
"It's like giving a glass of ice water to somebody in hell."
Ya gotta love the guy. :-)

Looking for work through August
Unfortunately my summer work situation took a bad turn last week, I'm told a business partner pulled out and things are now on hold.
I'm looking for full-time employment through the end of August / beginning of September. If you know someone who needs a developer, please send them my resume.
Thanks!
