Xbox 360 Dashboard Update
June 7, 2006
Microsoft finally released the Xbox 360 Dashboard Update yesterday. It was fun to come home after work, turn it on, and sure enough, it prompted right away to download the update. I was pleased to find out when I first heard about the update that they were adding support for queueing downloads and downloading in the background. Good to hear they're listening to their fanbase :) The unfortunate thing is, with this feature enabled it doesn't take long to explore all of the interesting content on Xbox Live. Suddenly you're limited by the amount of content instead of how quickly you can download it... shoot :)

Exercise BallJune 7, 2006
I splurged at the grocery store the other day and bought an exercise ball. I had one a couple of years ago that I never got into the habit of using, but I left it too close to the heater once and it was horribly misshapen after that. So here's my second try. I played with it yesterday and found it to be a lot of fun... there are a bunch of great exercises you can do with it. Book review: Learning PHP 5
May 31, 2006
In 2005, I wanted to learn PHP. I picked up Learning PHP 5 by O'Reilly and started reading it this month. This book is an incredibly efficient read, and concise at 300 pages dispite being geared toward the lesser experienced developer. While not perfect, I've found PHP to be a very polished language in many areas, offering web developers a lot of bang for their buck. For a full book review and language review, see here.
