Will Strohl's Blog

Many of you probably already know who Matt Cutts is.  If you’re unaware, he’s one of the first engineers hired at Google.  He is now responsible for their Webspam team, but he is also behind tools like safe search.  Anyhow, he has a very well-populated blog.  He blogs much more than I do.  One of his reoccurring blog themes is the concept of trying something out for 30 days and letting his readers know how it worked out. I guess it’s my turn…

A littler over a year ago, I was hungry and was looking for a new place to have a meal.  During my online search, I found a local place that claimed to have the world’s hottest hamburger.  It is at The Swingin’ Door and the burger is called the Habanero XXX Burger.  You have to sign a waiver just to eat it!  I just had to have it…

It was exactly one year ago that I showed up for my first day of work at DotNetNuke Corporation.  The past year has flown by.  A ton of things have happened in the 365 days since. 

As you may or may not know, I recently moved to the San Francisco area in California, which involved moving my family and our entire home.  Due to all kinds of things, the family wasn’t able to move with me until the end of December.  Finally, the time came, and we drove from Orlando, FL to San Francisco, CA.  It was a very fun and challenging journey for a family of 5, across 8 states, and through 4 time zones for 6 days.  The trip could’ve been shorter, but we stayed with family in Arizona for a couple of days.

During this time, we used our Android G2 phones quite extensively.  There are apps that we always use, but including those, a couple of apps proved to be very helpful to us.
