    PSA!

    As someone who just came back to work after having a fever for seven days straight, I’d like to remind everyone to get their flu shots – H1N1 and the regular kind! Also, on the off chance that someone noticed my lack of comments on ideas last week, I’m sorry – the whole week was a bit of a blur. I realize it seems like the end of the season, but this is the second year in a row I’ve gotten an absolutely awful flu at the beginning of March, which is also why I know H1N1 didn’t even hit until April or so last year. So, really, get your flu shots!

    My Top Five Things To Do While Solidworks Is Thinking

    I don’t know how many of you out there use Solidworks, but it’s a program that allows you to build 3D models. Sometimes it does so quickly, and that’s always good to hope for, but mostly Solidworks decides the rate at which Solidworks wants to work. Unless you want it to crash, you often have to switch to something else for a minute or two while it thinks over whether or not it’s going to do what you requested. My five favorite places to go (in no particular order):

    1. http://www.quirky.com – OK, that’s a cop out, but I really do read the comments, I obsessively watch what’s close to its presale threshhold, and I’m starting to leave more comments of my own.
    2. http://www.asofterworld.com/
    3. http://thereifixedit.com/
    4. The Onion horoscope
    5. http://wondermark.com/

    A Product With A Kindred Design Spirit

    Hello there, Quirks.

    Despite my techie background, I’m a blog virgin, so be gentle on me.

    Working on Pen Zen reminds me of my knife block, which is awesome for those of us still in the phase of life where nothing comes in sets: www.kapoosh.com.
