Brent Simmons’ weblog. I write NetNewsWire, a free RSS/Atom reader for Mac OS X.

“I was on the ground in Indianapolis...”

I love it when TV People — newscasters, analysts, politicians — say they were “on the ground” somewhere.

It’s a good and welcome reminder that they normally live in the clouds, in heaven, up with the angels. Not on the ground with us, where things are mysterious and messy.

Gosh they’re lucky. Good and lucky.

About me

I learned programming way back in 1980 on an Apple II Plus, and have been using Apple computers ever since.

I work for NewsGator Technologies on NetNewsWire. NetNewsWire has won two Macworld Eddy awards and an O’Reilly Innovators Award.

I like cats and spaghetti and swimming in the ocean.
