This post is going to delve into the gory details. You can cut to the chase and just visit the new version of my music site. Still here? Proceed at your own risk. How do you make your music available on the Internet when you’re a geeky songwriter? Over the years, I’ve made it available…

My OS X Lion Post
I’ve been using OS X Lion for about a month now. I took the plunge when iOS 5 and OS X 10.7.2 came out. Executive summary I like it. If you’re interested in knowing why, read on.
OS X Lion killed Mail.app To Do's
My fabulous task management workflow is dead in the water. Which is why I haven’t updated to Lion and will not do so until it can’t be avoided. Fuck!
Task Management with Mail.app : Smart & Fabulous Update.
My fabulously simple and smart task management workflow using Mail.app is now even smarter and fabulouser thanks to the added elegance and power of Alarms, a great utility which I encourage you to check out. Now if only Mr. Alarms could write an iPhone/iPad app that allowed me to see my Apple Mail/iCal alarms on…
"Pocket Vince" iPhone Web App
Those damn Muses. First, they got me to create a site for my music, which was scattered all over the Web. This time, they got it into their pretty little heads that I should create an iPhone-optimized version (because my particular muse, wanted « Vincent in my Pocket » she said, and she happens to own an…

I bought the new iPhone 3G S today. On launch day. I know… I skipped the iPhone 3G, so the feature-gap with my G1 iPhone made the upgrade worth it. The Geekette, bless her geeky soul, encouraged me to go for it (she should be getting the old iPhone, which is better than her old…
iPhone 3.0 Killer Feature
I installed iPhone OS 3.0 a little ahead of schedule (ahem) on my 1st generation iPhone 2G. I can’t comment on the features that will only work on the iPhone 3G S (yet), but as for the rest, I have to say that for me, the feature that stands out was somewhat unexpected: search. You see,…
Double-O-Geek
I’m not at liberty to tell you what I was doing in Cupertino, California all last week. Let’s just say that while a certain company was unveiling its new offerings in the opening Keynote to an annual World Wide Developer’s Conference, I was driving back to San Francisco Airport, to fly home to Paris.
