Adobe Takes Mobile Testing Forward with Adobe Shadow
by
Like many web devs, I work locally. That means all of my current projects are running on my laptop with MAMP (MAMP Pro for me) and I can work on them even if I’m offline. I also domain map, which means the location of this site on my laptop is dev.curtismchale.curtisdev.ca and my laptop just…
Peter Sagan vs Mark Cavendish – Finally a Sprint Competition
by
Typically I’m not much in to the sprint stages in the [Tour de France][tdf] races, actually in any race. They follow a predictable path. 1. There is a breakaway 2. It’s caught in the last few km leaving everyone to wonder why it even happened 3. Sprint to the finish and [Cavendish][cav] takes it At…
Back Up and Legal Stupidity
by
I’ve gone over my back up solution before. If you’re not backing up in 3 spots with one offsite, then you’re simply doing it wrong. Seems there is a lawyer in my country of Canada who was doing it wrong and now wants Apple to pay for his stupidity. The short version of the article…

I don’t actually care where the truth…
Working a Networking Event
by
As much as I do like going out to meet ups and local events, I’m terrible at networking for my business. I suppose I should follow tips like this but it just doesn’t feel like me. By nature I’m not pushy, I figure that my work and clients will speak for themselves. I do good…
Can RadioShack Nissan Trek Survive it’s Dissent?
by
I’ve wondered how things were going with [Team RadioShack Nissan Trek][rns] (RNS) for a while now. Forget the lack of results for the team this year. Sure it’s disconcerting given the deep roster of athletes. The real issue seems to be in fighting and doing it publicly. First during the [Critérium Du Dauphiné][cdd] there were…
