Just posted
a commentary about GPS use and why most instructors are rejecting it. You can
read it in the resources articles section. Very tired, off to bed.

Patagonia is looking to hire a Design Director for the technical department. That would be a pretty cool job overseeing the design side of Patagonia. I would be happy to work in any job in that department. Well, let’s rephrase that, I would be happy to just sit and watch.

We added a canoeing video section to the site. We also added a bunch of wilderness canoeing related documents in our resource repository.

I am still saddened by the death of James Kim. I was following the story for a couple of days via some bloggers before the mainstream news picked it up. Now that all the details are coming out, it is even sadder. What would I do in that situation? I don’t know. I can’t imagine how difficult of a decision it must have been to leave his family behind. My condolences to the Kim family.

Finally got around to posting a photo of myself in the right-hand menu. Since I am always the guy behind the camera, it took some digging to actually find a photo of myself. There, I hope everybody is happy.

For those interested, this photo was taken by Liz Burnside. We were out on the Westerns in Georgian Bay. (The link will take you to Microsoft Maps. Zoom way out when you get there.)

Well, we made the big switch and moved our blog over to Wordpress. All the archives are over and we just need to make things look pretty now. We are in the process of adding some new features. Look for a couple of book reviews coming this week.

What do you think of the new site?
