Out Of Service.

Tuesday, May 6, 2008

My phone got turned off. I don’t know if I’ll be able to get it turned on again anytime soon. I’m really, really angry about this, but there’s nothing I can do.
So I guess if you want to reach me when I’m in India, try my Grand Central number or email me or use the […]

Oh, Hell.

Monday, May 5, 2008

I just realized I’m leaving Tuesday night, not Wednesday night, as I’d thought — I misread my itinerary.
Crap. 24 less hours to get stuff taken care of here.

Gear Advice for India?

Saturday, May 3, 2008

So I’m off to India on Wednesday. I dread the incoming and outbound flights, but I’m really excited.
The place I’m going (Chandigarh) is going to be hotter than a motherfucker — hotter than Vegas is now, and really humid.
I have to buy new shorts, since all of my shorts are so big now that they […]

Chandigarh

Thursday, March 27, 2008

Turns out I’m not leaving on the 29th for India, but within the next couple of weeks, I think. We have to sort out visas first, but apparently that’s not a big deal.
Joe and I will fly into New Delhi, and from there we’ll travel north to the city of Chandigarh, which was partially designed […]

By The Way

Monday, March 10, 2008

I’m off to India for business meetings at the end of the month, for a couple of weeks. I’ll be off with Joe north of Delhi in the foothills of the Himalayas, meeting with programmers for a secret web project. Our host has graciously agreed to take me up into the mountains for a day […]

Monday, March 3, 2008

I just found out I won’t be attending SxSW after all. Which really sucks. My apologies to anybody who expected to see me there.

Addendum…

Wednesday, November 28, 2007

If you’ve emailed me or sent me a MySpace message, I got it while I was gone, but I didn’t respond to anything, since I almost never had access with my laptop and Turkish keyboards are laid out completely differently. (They have two letter I’s, which is amusing when your last name is ‘Ellis’. I […]

…and I forgot to blog the occasion.
I’m sorting through pics and videos now, and writing my two pieces. Which will appear Real Soon Now, on Another Blog, which is Still Secret.
