So, below are our current and/or former clients. These are the folks I dedicate my life to providing great service too. Enjoy this is a teaser as the new JUXT site will be launched tomorrow with a new portfolio of our work.

JUXT entered two pieces into the 2009 Addy Awards, Coke Zero Golf & Adobe Shortcut to Brilliant. I had the pleasure of attending the event, and we won for both entries. Coke Zero Golf won a gold for the category interactive “Banners / 3D / Pop-ups / Screen Savers” while Adobe Shortcut to Brilliant won a silver for the category interactive “Website Consumer Flash.”


brianjeremy.com was featured on the new browsershots.org gallery. Not only is this a great honor, but this is by far one the of the best Q&A products for testing websites against most all browsers for maxium compatability. Thanks Johann Rocholl and the Browsershots team, continue the great work — its an excellent product.
Personally, I’ve lost my voice [literally, not metaphorically] along with a plethora of business to attend to which has thus left my blog yet again under maintained. In all actuality, I think I have finally found my voice. In the queue I will be shortly publishing a followup on the initial Bay Area Security Professionals / PCI Group meeting, as well as my research on Cloud Computing including articles on RightScale, Mosso, Amazon AWS, and GoGrid.
Lastly, I’ve got some portfolio additions that will appear in What I’ve Done section in the coming weeks.
In an attempt to create a community around web payment security professionals and PCI Compliance, I’ve decided to co-found the Bay Area Security Professionals / PCIUG [formal name might change]. The first gathering is Friday Jan 23, 2009 and will be less formal (meet-up style) to determine the future of the group. It’s free, just register here: https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?key=phKV5pOXQ70lhTuYQz2bkSg and show up here:

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact myself @brianjeremy or @sfoak via Twitter.
I’ve got an article on Mosso, AWS, AWS Console, and RightScale I’ve been diligently working on, hence the radio silence on recent posts to my blog. It will be finalized the week of Jan 12th, so please sit tight — maybe get some sun in the meantime.
While, doing some sunday cleaning (massive shredding of old documents) I found what I believe to be the funniest note I’ve ever received regarding client work. This email was sent to me after the 2003 launch of samadams.com by JUXT Interactive. Prior to shredding this, I want to make sure the memory is kept alive:
“To whom it may concern,
I am intending to dress up as Sam Adams (not the historical Samuel Adams but the character associated with your beer). I was wondering if you could provide a description or list of his attire as I would like to try to assemble the best costume possible. Thanks for entertaining this rather whimsical request.

Well, I guess its official the blog authority of the Interweb has determined that I am a geek — brianjeremy.com is now officially syndicated at http://geeks.alltop.com/. It’s a shame my last post was about art — I’ll kick the technology posts back into high gear. Welcome new readers.
Well, I’ve been writing so much lately about technology I thought I’d take a break and mention I’ve got two new pieces of art in my collection. They are both limited edition Shepard Fairey (Obey Giant) prints that were sent out as holiday gifts. Peace Fingers Red was given to friends, family, and vendors in 2006 an edition of 200. Peace Tree Yellow was again given as a gift in 2007 and is an edition of 350. Both prints are 18×24, signed, numbered, and extremely rare. Peace Fingers and Peace Tree both exist as standard prints, but the gift editions have variations which make them unique.


A quick how-to guide on installing MySQL Server on Apple OS X 10.5.5:
- Download the correct disk image for your flavor of OS X.
- Open the image and notice two packages, click the one “mysql-5.0.xx-osx-10.5-x86.pkg
- Follow the installation wizard (choose the installation location, click next, etc).
- In the disk image you’ll see a file MySQL.prefPane — double click this file, it will install to your system preferences.
- Now in system preferences you’ll see an icon/name pair “MySQL” — click this once to open the configuration settings. Click ‘Start Server’, this will boot up the server*.
** Lastly, if you wish the server to start each time you reboot click the checkbox “Automatically start MySQL at Startup.” Lastly, if you wish the server to start each time you reboot click the checkbox “Automatically start MySQL at Startup.”
Thats it, you are ready to roll. Use your favorite MySQL management GUI to connect to the local database or simple use the ‘mysql’ command from a terminal window. Don’t forget to initially set your root password.
