Visual Lizard
Julian Moffatt
Julian is one of the founders of Visual Lizard Inc and a web/tech-junkie if there ever was one. He has a small collection of iPods (3 and counting) and a Blackberry 7250 for those times he is actually away from his computer.
Having been first introduced to computers at the tender age of 6, Julian has had at one point or another: an IBM PC XT, an Apple 2e, a Fujikama 286 (with a 256 colour monitor!!) through to the first computer he personally purchased, a glorious 486 PC with 40MBs of hard drive space and a 16-bit graphics card for $4200 in 1990. Coincidentally, that was his first loan as well. However, it was the 486 that led to the discovery of newsgroups (remember alt.rocknroll before Usenet?) and Pine, the worlds worst application for email ever. In-fact, some would say that his addiction to X-com and Pine caused him to take a break from University to pursue "something to do with computers dad". The rest is history as they say.
He works with a MacBook Pro in the office and is equally at home in front of Linux, Windows or OS X operating systems. He is project manager, design shepherd (he speaks designer fluently and has been known to run in certain design circles under an alias) and CSS guru. He also brow beats the guys in the office about accessibility, Search Engine Optimization and the importance of music to the soul.
When Julian is not actually working, he can be found enjoying time at the hockey rink with the guys, beating small synthetic dimpled balls across acres of manicured land or just hanging out with family and friends at home or the cottage.
In spite of all of the above, Julian has an awesome wife, two crazy-cute daughters (3 and 1), 2 cats and a dog that has moved out citing breach of contract under the "no-child-and-dog-cohabiting" clause. She visits from time to time, but can be found relaxing on a pile of sheep-skins at the grandparents house most days.

This is a pretty awesome advancement in Solar Power. Hopefully this can become affordable within the next 10 years so we people can start generating their own energy.

Keyword Generator
Google has a tool that you can use to analyze your site and suggest keywords for you. Of course it dovetails with AdWords, but Google does own the internet.

Lustro
A neat little app that lets you export your Address Book (OS X) contacts into various formats, such as CSV, which was exactly what I needed.
