for the last time. I’m moving back to Camino.
By the way,
it’s now official – je reviens à Montréal! Or, I should say, nous revenons à Montréal. As of this week our house in Ottawa will be on the market, we’ve been looking at places in our beloved Plateau Mont-Royal for a few weeks, and I had a second interview for a really great job this morning and I am extremely optimistic that an offer is going to follow at the end of the week.
The only sticky issue will be that I will likely have to be in Montreal for work before we’re entirely set up in our new abode, so I’m also looking for somewhere to rent a room for a month or so (in May). Suggestions and offers to mboyle [at] mikel.org!
Update Apr 12: the offer I was hoping for did come through and I start work on April 30. I have had a couple of nice offers of space to stay for a few weeks and I’ll be following up on those shortly. Thanks for all the well wishes!
Thomas Purves has posted
a comparison of mobile data pricing in Canada and elsewhere in the world, and demonstrates that Canadian rates are by far the highest anywhere. The only *possible* light at the end of the tunnel is that if Rogers does bring in the Apple iPhone, then they’re going to have to do something to address the fact that the iPhone is designed for a pretty high level of network access, or so it seems. With any luck – but I’m not holding my breath – this will benefit Canadian customers across the board.
I’m a bit late with this,
but I’m going to chime in with my congratulations to Dave Winer for achieving a remarkable benchmark: A decade of Scripting News. With Scripting News (among very few others), we saw the transformation of the “often-updated personal website” become something quite different. “Often” and “every day, several times” are, on the web, radically different things. Congratulations!
Kathy Sierra & Chris Locke
have published what they’re calling “Coordinated Statements” about the events of recent days related to them both. A very interesting development.
