Cartel Coffee Lab – 5th Ave in Scottsdale still has the fastest WiFi that I can find (see latest Speedtest results, below) and they definitely, of course, still have the absolute best coffee around. I’m enjoying a great cup of Kinunu variety, poured by Clint. Awesome.
Naturally, I’m enjoying said cup all. by. itself! No cream, no sugar. 
Latest Speedtest of WiFi at Cartel 5th Ave in Scottsdale. Still MUCH faster than Scottsdale Library or SUSD WiFi!
I’m learning a lot about coding (HTML, CSS, PHP, jQuery, JavaScript, Ruby, and more) for free, online with really cool interactive lessons at Codecademy.
I love a good mystery! Any one know why this pile of rocks exists in front of Desert Mountain High School/Palomino Library?
[4/3/13 UPDATE] Apparently, a bunch of little kids who were visiting the Library with their parents piled them up one afternoon while waiting for their moms to finish talking. “Mystery” solved.
I’m happy to report that the WiFi at Cartel Coffee Lab – 5th Ave in Scottsdale is back up and running very well. See the speed results here:
The coffee, of course, is as amazing as always. Unfortunately, their oven broke so their “Big Ben” breakfast sandwich is unavailable. They’re working on that.
I’m dying to see the new “Hobbit” movie in HFR 3D, but I’m under the weather now. Soon… very soon.
Apparently, Microsoft Security Essentials has lost its place as the top free anti-virus software in the land – see InformationWeek’s article at http://goo.gl/4miiE.
I’d been on the Security Essentials bandwagon ever since Lifehacker recommended it.
But, now I use avast! Free Antivirus on my laptop and Android phone. Not too shabby. It does a better job of catching all the latest viruses and malware out there while slowing down the computer only a little more than Security Essentials. Click here if you’d like to try avast!, too.
