Am I really supposed to believe that U23D is all that?

I was struck today to participate in a banner ad while reading the news about Wozinak’s new endeavor (read more about this here) for the upcoming release of U23D. I will preface this with a note about how much I appreciate all that Bono does for the world and such (blah blah blah). [...]

Net neutrality and a hint of outrage

In response to the article on “Net Neutrality” posted on Wired’s website:
In Test, Canadian ISP Splices itself into Google homepage
For those Rogers Internet Customers that happen to read this which are “Ok” with being notified that your ISP will be charging you more because you have reached your download cap, two things:

Will “the writer’s” strike kill network television

Sometimes innovation is introduced by accident. On other occasions innovation has been purchased. We sometimes see innovative ideas spread through grass roots efforts and on some occasions, we see innovation because of unique opportunistic changes.
Take this writers strike. Many of us are still baffled by the fact that all three major networks [...]

It’s not the destination, it’s the journey

I know there are some really cool linking sites (I use Del.icio.us and clipmarks - but there are tons others). But what we don’t really find are really cool “travel to a link” sites. I am amazed at how I discover content on a daily basis. So much so that I am [...]

The E-mail Post

I have been thinking about this a lot and I am sure that I am not going to get this out in one post.  I am however officially fed up with E-mail.  I am so fed up that I am no longer going to refer to it in its supposedly grammatically correct form “E-mail” or [...]

This is illogical (Mr.) Spock

I recently had a discussion with a friend of mine about this web site called “Spock”. It is designed to provide easy searching for people.
