Technology, Books and Other Neat Stuff

...and thanks to this little application you can sync it with OS X! Time to dig out the old 2100 and the eMate and see how they work with the TiBook...

For a year I thought would end up spent mostly at home, 2002 was actually pretty widely traveled - involving 3 continents and 7 countries (8 if you count autonomous provinces).

• Lanzarote - wonderful volcanic landscapes and a warm winter break. I think we may well be going back in 2003.
• France - a wedding in Paris and a reception at a small manor house in the Normandy countryside. And of course, suitcases full of cassoulet.
• Spain - a conference in Barcelona, with wonderful sea food and interesting panels - and the most amazing architecture.
• Jersey - several trips, including the British National SF convention and a family weekend on my home Island. And I got to show rowanf and her mother the sights... And sunbathing on the beaches of yesteryear...
• USA - two weeks in Northern California and Silicon Valley for the San Jose Worldcon, which became a wonderful holiday in the warm late summer staying with rowanf and ocean_song. Hummingbirds, sea otters and bookshops, oh me, oh my. And Highway 18, twisting and turning over the Santa Cruz mountains...
• Belgium - a weekend's gourmandising in Bruges with the gathered clans of cix:gourmet. Chocolate and canals, and a wood-fired grill that we will definitely be visiting again.
• Ireland - another weekend visit, this time to the Irish SF convention, Octocon. Much fun, much Guinness, and much rain...
• Denmark - another conference, in Copenhagen. Cold and crisp, with plenty to think about - and excellent meals to brainstorm the mobile Internet.
