Adam Finley, I wish I had met you personally. Peace.

Just a quick off-topic post to pay respects to a peer in the blogosphere: Adam Finley. Although I didn't meet him personally, I knew Adam through blogging at AOL / Weblogs; he blogged over at TV Squad. He was hit by a bus while riding his bicycle, tragically ending life at an all-too-short 30 years. For the better part of two days, authorities were unable to identify Adam and ended up working with Apple to help determine his identity: with keys and his iPod in possession at the accident, Apple traced the iPod to Adam via the registered serial number.

Thank you for indulging me during this short post. Warm thoughts to Adam, his friends and family.

It's tragic to note that he was eventually identified by an iPod serial number; remembering Adam -
