He was very fast, delivered the results quickly, and was very flexible. I found him a pleasure to work with [...]

A while back I pre-ordered a Kindle Fire from Amazon, and now it's about to be released. Amazon says it should be shipping in 2-3 days. I'm very interested to see it.

I want to give a shout-out to the folks who are putting on this year's Catholic New Media Conference (the 4th annual one!), coming up September 30-October 2 in Kansas City.
