Aaron Adams’s Blowhard Blog

I haven’t written much here recently. Things have been quiet on the home front, and my irrational obsession with parsing language has been my primary blog contribution as of late. Next week is Macworld San Francisco, and as astute browsers of this site know, I will be presenting a little thing obtusely titled “Remotely and Securely Controlling Other Computers from Your Mac for Administrative or Support Purposes (M264)”, which I can promise you will be filled with broad generalization, abstract concepts, academic minutiae, and mostly-accurate diagrams, all for the purpose of enlightening conference attendees as to how to never leave your desk, and be secure about it at the same time. For the love of God, don’t miss it!

As long as I’ve had this lame-ass site, I’ve promised to post something here during each year’s Macworld, and I never follow through because I become overwhelmed by the array of activities I have the option of participating in. This year, I promise that under no circumstances will I post anything about MWSF until I return, and even then I probably won’t post much unless I have something unique to share. In the past, I’ve also offered my own prognostications about what to expect at the keynote. I’m sure some people from Apple casually checked the page once or twice and had a good snort at my expense before (correctly) dismissing me as some ill-informed kook. After being 100% wrong (for all the right reasons) about the Mac mini and Intel processors in 2005, I’m not even going to hazard a guess about what will appear next to Steve on stage Tuesday because I obviously don’t know what the hell I’m talking about. I have my hopes which are, frankly, without factual basis, and I’ll be keeping those to myself, thank you very much.
