Other (Non Tech)
For those of you that are regular readers of my blog, I know this is a bit of an "off topic" post, but after suffering through a few hours to pain, and relentless efforts testing and re-testing various solutions to get back into my iTunes account I just had to share this post. As many of you will see if you do a quick google search for "iTunes Invalid Address" you will see a stream of complaints coming up starting about May 5th, and getting increasingly more common of the last few days. Well this evening my iTunes account fell victim as I inadvertently clicked "Update" on iTunes to take it to the most current version.

OK, so normally I try to keep the number of personal, non-tech, blog postings to a minimum on this site, since most of my readers are here for the technical content. Well, this time I am going to make an exception. For those of you that follow me on
Twitter you may have already heard bits-and-pieces of my travel fiasco from last night -> this morning. Well for the benefit of others, I thought I would share some details on my two major Expedia failures this year.

The other day I was reading Antonio Chagoury's blog and came across one of his recent postings "Just In Case You're Not Keeping Tabs" ahd it got me thinking. I just got done filling out a few forms where I needed to list my community involvement, and much like Antonio I had a hard time sitting down and really coming up with the list of everything that I do on a volunteer basis.

Over the past few weeks since I announced that my company, IowaComputerGurus Inc. was going to be an exhibitor at OpenForce ’08 this November I have been asked a few questions by the community. I feel that the answers to these questions are items that should be aired publicly; therefore I am posting this information here for all to see. The two questions that have been coming up quite a bit recently are; Why are you sharing a booth with Seablick Consulting, and How do you choose your business partners. I will start by addressing the second question, and returning to answer the first.
