Life imitates art ~ interactive Sootie
July 19th, 2007

Shao Ping and I have this little cat on our web sites. The animated cat reflects the current weather conditions. Tonight the comfortable cat on Shao Ping’s blog mirrored our cat Sootie as he luxuriated in his bed, cleaning himself, before he settled in for the evening. It was almost as if the web based application knew that Sootie was grooming himself!

Korean BBQ with Amy and Sun
July 4th, 2007

Last night Shao Ping and I had dinner with Amy and Sun at a Korean BBQ restaurant in Hurstville, Sydney. Amy was one our homestay students when she studied at the University of Wollongong. The dinner was great! We love cooking the food on the fly over the charcoal burner on the table.






That afternoon we had been in Sydney. We paid a visit to the Australian Computer Society to check out their projection and networking facilities prior to a presentation that is happening tomorrow, Thursday.

I have been sorting through old photographs and I came across a few shots I captured at a Singapore Mac Meetup. It was held on the 9th November 2002 at the Burger King, Millenia Walk. We all had a quite a lively night. All of the usual suspects were there. Siva uploaded some photographs of the evening as well
