I was catching up on reading on some favourite blogs, when I came across this interesting article that Scott Sheppard of " It's Alive in the Lab " fame posted some time back.  In response to one of his blogs about analysing your iTunes music, another blogger Jason Pratt sent him this link… Free Download of Super Analyzer 2.1 from SourceForge   which is fine if you're a PC user… but if you're a Mac user, I figured there'd have to be something similar about… and there's probably plenty about but the one I used was this… Super Analyzer (Mac) As per the PC version, its a Java Runtime program that requires no installation and will extract all the information from your iTunes to produce graphs and charts on your music library. You'll be able to see the evolution of genres, tracks you like, or highest playing times. Super Analyzer will also let you know the most played, highest rated songs and includes a whole list of count stats. The application only tak...

Wow, what can I say…. it was certainly a hectic day yesterday at times, being the "local paparazzi" at the two Adelaide Autodesk 2011 Product Launch's.  The morning session, where Lynn Allen gave her presentation was hosted by KarelCAD at the Adelaide Crows Training Facility at AAMI Stadium, West Lakes.  Great job Shane, Craig & the guys… No sooner than Lynn's session was over, we were travelling to North Adelaide for IMAGINiT's hosted launch at North Adelaide.  Thankfully, both were a great success, great job Phillip, Michael & the IMAGINiT team.

When Lynn Allen last "toured" Australia, she visited me in hospital and the positive vibes that visit provided was truly amazing… for that, when Lynn mentioned that she wanted a brief break from her hectic busy speaking/travelling schedule whilst promoting the Autodesk 2011 Product Launch around Australia & New Zealand, I was only happy to show her a small sample the best of what South Australia wines have to offer… We started in the Adelaide Hills Wine region and yesterday toured the Barossa Valley and along the coast of suburban Adelaide, where Lynn finally got to "meet" Jedi, our "baby". I now looking forward to Lynn's presentation on Wednesday April 21 - if you're in Adelaide be sure to attend the Autodesk 2011 Product Launch (or April 20 in Perth or April 22 in Melbourne).

Lynn Allen rocks Adelaide AND coincidentally an "earthquake / tremor" measuring 3.3 on the Richter scale has shaken my home town, Adelaide last Friday night. WOW, I can finally say "Lynn Allen has rocked my World…." Adjacent is a photo of Lynn enjoying the pleasures of Nepenthe Wines located in the Adelaide Hills with my partner, Karen & myself. For those of you in the AEC & Manufacturing industries, you can see & hear Lynn Allen at the Autodesk 2011 National Product launch to be held Wednesday, 21st March 2010 hosted by KarelCAD & IMAGINiT .

Its probably old news to some of you but I was reading/viewing with great interest on Daryl Gregoire's blogsite " REVIT Rocks! " about a Parametric Room Size label - what a great idea! Nice work Daryl! Be sure to read the comments as well, as Richard Binning also provided some great tips.
