Richardson software recently released a major new edition of RazorSQL — one of my favorite tools. This is a paid upgrade ($49), but well worth the money. Checkout the additions and fixes here. This is a product that I use EVERY day, well worth the money. I compel you to buy it ;o)

Hypercritical is ending it’s run BWAHHHHHH!!!
I used to listen to Sirius Radio in my car during my weekly commutes to the airport. VW didn’t offer Satellite radio as an option on my new Beetle, so I switched over to listening to podcasts while driving. I jumped around between a few of the usual suspects, Ted Talks and Freakonomics and […]
iPad Mini, et al
I ordered an iPad mini on the first Friday that it was released. I’ve owned several iPad models, the original iPad, and the “New iPad” (i.e. the third model). In the interim, I’ve also tried out the Google Nexus 7, which I liked a lot. I still have my original iPad, but I sold the […]
Working with MonoDevelop — and I don’t hate it.
Working with MonoDevelop on the Mono Platform in parallel with a C# course and a I don’t hate it. We have portfolio companies that develop on .Net and it is very nice to be able to work on .Net code without having to resort to running Parallels or RDPing into a Windows Box.
Got a new MacBook Air
Bought a new MacBook Air last week — it got delivered on Thursday. Connected the two machines on Friday night. The Mac Migration Assistant really works like a charm, with the exception of VPN settings and Microsoft Office. You basically have to re-install those two by hand after the migration. Connected the […]
mySQL Hack (aka Jim’s Friday Stupidity)
Made a classic, classic rookie mistake today. Actually, what I did was galactically stupid. Was converting/scrubbing data from a marketing list and loading it into Salesforce.com (SFDC). The SFDC part isn’t really relevant, but that’s the reason that I was doing it. One of my partners was in charge of loading data into SFDC […]
RazorSQL
Starting a series of posts on the software that I use on a daily basis. There are plenty of places to find software reviews out there. I’m not trying to create a destination site for software reviews. In fact, I only plan on describing “why” I use and like a particular product. Not going […]
CISCO VPN with MacOS Lion
If you have been using the 4.x release of Cisco’s VPNClient on the Mac — be prepared for a change. By default the VPNClient is a 32-bit piece of software and it does not run on Lion, unless you boot your machine in 32-bit mode (which sort of defeats the purpose). However, the […]
Balsamiq Mockups — One of my favorite tools
It’s not often that I run across a tool that just keeps delivering for me, but Balsamiq Mockups just keeps giving and giving. There are certainly lots of tools out there for building storyboards and mockups. Like any software product they all have their pros and cons. I’m not here to debate the functionality […]
Bad Design For A Small Thing Can Mess Up A Perfectly Good Product
I recently converted over to the iPhone on Verizon (more on this experience in a future post). Prior to the iPhone I was using a Blackberry Storm 2 — I’ve had just about every Blackberry that Verizon offered over the years. I like the Storm 2, but I don’t LOVE it. One […]
