@avman9000: That was a great, great game. Good memories, thanks.

@genuap: King's Quest were all fun. I saved my money and took the bus to a software store to buy King's Quest 5 the day it came out.
@wwoolrich: That and Dark Castle were the best games I ever played on the Mac. We put in a lot of hours on Wizardry. I also liked Uninvited, Deja Vu, and Shadowgate.
@jimclark1: Heck, all the Apogee games. Really great stuff.
@mrjeremiahross: WordPerfect 5.1 was a great word processor. I wrote many papers with it and remember its blue and white fondly.
@budip: Karateka was my favorite game of all time. For me, though, it was on an Apple ][e
@jupiterthunder: Let's close that tag.
@Michael Huang: Thank you for your detailed reply—looks like I've have a full calendar with all these tips!
@myagi: I need some good hiking—thank you!
@nyCecilia: Thanks—I'll take you up on that Alcatraz tip!
@sg1969: This is a good point. I once had an interview that went very poorly. It was obvious to me that I would not be moving on in the process, so at the end of the interview, I asked for feedback. The interviewer gave me several points that proved to be pivotal when interviewing elsewhere.
OK, Lifehacker, I'm moving from Chicago to San Francisco. What must I see/learn about/sign up for/etc. in the SF area?

I do my best to make sure that critical information is instantly accessible from multiple places (e.g. on multiple local drives plus in the cloud), important information is backed up and can be available relatively easily (e.g. in the cloud and on an unconnected…
@ffejie: Great point. I'll often ask the candidate to elaborate on a particular point, or tell me in more detail how they spent their time. They've often burned all their fuel in the resume, and further details only make it look less impressive. (Or, as you suggest, they sometimes tell a different story in person,…
@blueTitanium: Here's a thought: visit a couple of Apple stores and ask the manager and employees what are the most important attributes in an employee there. (You'll need to filter a bit, but asking a number of people and at different stores will help.)
@Samuel B. Elliott: Yes, the interview is definitely an opportunity for the candidate to learn about/evaluate the company as well. However, IMO, the time to make a decision about whether or not you want to work there is after you get an offer. You really don't have all the information you need until you get the…
@Biscuitcleaver: I think we both know the answer to that.
The article isn't bad. I'd add a few things:
@Andrew Komarow: That would be ideal, of course—right now, if I want to send all traffic through Google Voice to my mobile, I have to either accept that I can't receive MMSs, or I have to tell people, "Use this number when sending me an SMS, but use this other one when sending me an MMS", which really isn't viable.
