UPC Product Code Lookup

This morning someone asked me where a certain Universal Product Code (from a HUGE wall-to-wall, nation-wide retailer-mart) came from. In as much as it took me several minutes to discover that this retailer was using an unregistered code for millions of it's products, I decided to make that process of discovery a LOT easier:

(UPC Product Code Lookup in action)

So I wrote an applet to help us lookup a product code prefix a lot faster. Because I used Java 1.2, this little ditty should work in a lot more Java-enable Browsers.

I hope you will find this tool usefull!

EasyTime

If you are like me, then you stopped enjoying calculating the number of hours worked a long time ago. -From 'summing your hours left to work, to your TDY / travel rate and / or the number of hours spent on any given task, it seems to me that we could all use an easier way to keep track of our time.

(the time machine in action)

So I wrote a little time machine of my own. Because I used Java, this time-tracking tool works in every Java-enable Browser... even for my friends on Secret-cleared Networks at the DOD!

I hope that you will find this little ditty as usefull as I do.

The Sierra Bible

There I was - looking for a scripture - one that I just knew was SOMEwhere in the set of scriptures that I love to read! -Yet, as unbelevable as it might sound in our day of on-line search-engines, I simply could not find it... -Indeed, even the bible-search places where I used to find my favorite verses ALL the time seem to be melting down .. going senile!

So what is a good geek going to do? Well, write his or her own Bible Search / Study Software, of course!

I call mine The Sierra Bible[tm]. Written in 100% pure Java, this Bible Search Software should run on your favorite desktop and laptop computers, too!

Rate Calculator

Ever went looking for an easier way to determine that nasty "all inclusive rate" for a consulting gig? Relax! You just found it!

Book Signing Time!

After finishing up yet another great gig, I arrived back at the office to find, with a little help from our other friends, that An Interview With A Saint has been getting great reviews at Amazon:

Next, note also that a book like this is more about the message, than the money. For this reason, those who have access to my ISBN listing for this title might note that we are now willing to assume the risk for sending out a limited number of titles on consignment. Contact me for more information.

Next, please note that the downloads are now back on-line.
