[House Project] Foundation done, interior walls almost gone

This past week, they construction guys did a lot to get the floor on our new addition - as well as tear down the walls of the existing interior. Can you believe they discovered the walls had no insulation?! Bob told us yesterday that he expects them to have all the framing done by the end of this week. If he really means all the framing, I'll be pretty damn impressed. Below are some pics I snapped over the weekend - click on them to more.

Walls coming down

[ANN] Fire 1.0 Released

Download · Release Notes. Fire, the Trillian-like IM client for OS X, has released version 1.0. I use Fire everyday and think it's a great IM client - especially since I use so many IM accounts. I do think that iChat, Yahoo Messenger and MSN are great clients, but I prefer having one app open rather than 3.

It's so easy to use, it doesn't even feel like work

Today I spent the whole day at my client doing training on the app I've been writing since November. The app is for posting jobs, entering resumes and screening applicants. It was originally created using Struts Resume and is in synch with the latest AppFuse code. It's been a fun app to develop and now that development is winding down, user training is beginning. When the head of HR was leaving the room today, she said something that made my day.

"It's so easy to use, it doesn't even feel like work."

There's nothing quite like compliments from a client. grin
