We’ve given Steve his chance to wow us with his latest love child. We’ve read all the big bloggers opinions. We’ve discussed it around the proverbial water cooler at work. Now it’s my turn to weigh in an the oversaturated topic.

Let’s Giddyup

If you follow any bit of tech news than you will know that on Wednesday of this week (Jan 27) Apple is all set to unveil the highly rumored tablet computing devise. I for one cannot be happier because the sheer amount of speculation about these types of things get annoying really quickly.

I’ve also included a list of resources used to help me define my process in case you’d like to delve into the subject a bit more.

I have one major resolution for twenty-ten and that’s to become more of a producer. For years I have been an avid consumer, learning the ins and outs of multiple technologies or hobbies, but this year I want to work hard at producing things instead of consuming. I believe my main reason for this lack of production is fear. Fear that I’m not good enough. Fear that I might fail. Fear of putting myself out there. Weak sauce, trust me, I know.

Here are a few areas that I feel capable of producing quality results from.
