Chris’s Symphony
Friday, May 11, 2007
I had an idea about In Shining Armor as I was listening to the playlist I’ve constructed to get my mind right for the story. Chris is the narrator of Mike’s adventures, and Chris is a musician. I thought it might make a nice little “frame” if Chris broke the story up into movements like [...]
The music is the message
Tuesday, May 8, 2007
I’ve often been told I have a very cinematic storytelling style, and I guess that fits; I was inspired as a child more by George Lucas than Isaac Asimov. And what would a movie be without a great soundtrack?
With that in mind, I’ve lately been revisiting an old idea of mine. When I was working [...]
On Heroes and Incomplete Works
Tuesday, May 8, 2007
I’ve been thinking a lot recently about what to write next. I’ve finally burst through my depression (for a while, anyway, it’s a lifetime struggle) and it’s time for me to start writing again. Writing fiction. I mean, these articles I write for JeffKirvin.net are nice and all, but I’m a novelist at heart, dammit, [...]

Shadow of Legend is the world’s first High-Performance, Cross-Platform MMORPG (Massively Multi-player Online Role Playing Game) targeting mobile devices. Players assume the roles of world heroes as they explore, adventure, and quest [...]
Can we finally talk about gun control?
Monday, May 7, 2007
Okay, I’ve waited a “decent interval” after the Virginia Tech shootings to bring this up. But now that we’ve had yet another horrific incident of gun violence in this country, isn’t it about time we start talking seriously about gun control?
I know the NRA would love it if the public followed the lead of our [...]
PPCGeeks.com - Apache WM5 AKU 3.5 Unifed ROM Kitchen 1.0.0 Release!
Monday, May 7, 2007
If you’ve got an HTC Apache (usually known as the PPC-6700 or XV6700), here’s the base for making your own ROM.
A couple of months ago we set out to take the excellent AKU 3.3 kitchen that Helmi_C graciously created for us and fix some of the existing bugs and omissions while bringing it up to [...]
Sprint Delays PPC-6800… to October?
Monday, May 7, 2007
Much chicken littling about this today…
According to various reports, Sprint has delayed the release of the PPC-6800 from its previously planned launch later this month. The delay may extend all the way to October, in order to launch with EVDO Rev. A access and Windows Mobile 6 instead of launching with what would have been an [...]
