Hi there, I’m Brian McKinney

Developer, designer, musician, recording engineer. In other words, I like to make things

Watching Diggnation!

Finishing up a coffee at Radina's. It's a bit more interesting to work here than in my living room.

Enjoying a frosty Shiner Bock and listening to Santana's most excellent album - Abraxas.

It's a beautiful rainy November day in downtown Lawrence. Got to admit there's a lot to like about this town.

In Lawrence, stopping for some La Parilla and then for some vinyl shopping at the Love Garden.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I've realized that Rock Band completely changes family get togethers for the better.

Road trip to Kansas City. Vanilla coke: check. Corn nuts: check. Good to go.

@worksology Good link regarding the BB Storm. The thing that people don't get is that the beauty of the iPhone is in the design not specs.

@dylanbathurst sunny and a warm (by Kansas standards) 55. perfect fall weather.

Really enjoying the most recent Fleet Foxes album. Thanks @completemusic!

In Kansas City visiting some good friends. Nice to be out of Manhattan for an evening.

@dereklarson Let me know if Willie runs out, tackles Prince, then takes off his mask to reveal he is Bill Snyder, then coaches the game.

At willie's pub enjoying a tasty pint.

Really want to go to New York and travel around with the iPhone's new really, really smooth mapping & directions features.

@astroot Finally got it about 10 minutes ago. No idea what the holdup was.

Am I the only one that does not have access to the new Gmail theme feature?

@worksology I'm thinking free fall as in stock prices and quality of products. BTW, I think YHOO is an excellent buy. I might do the same.

@worksology I've thought about that, but Jobs' looming retirement and the inevitable free fall that would accompany it scared me off.

@thecurtain Ouch. That really sucks. I hope you are able to get your data back.

About to head over to the K-State round ball game.

6:00 Already? Time for a pint of Guinness.

@mintchaos Wow, great job. The visual design is excellent and I particularly dig the layout/design of the various sections on the index page

Taking the day off of work to contemplate what my next move should be.

Wow. Still numb from the events of this night. Many things to think about, but I suppose all things must pass.

@webology Wheat State Pizza is freaking awesome. Most definitely the best in Lawrence.

Going to talk with my parents for a bit, then back to work. Despite all of the K-State games this weekend, I've managed to do some stuff.

Watching K-state throttle another cupcake. Looking forward to seeing this team play Kentucky in a couple of weeks.

At the K-State vs Nebraska game. Not a bad start.
