Technology, Science, and other ridiculousness
The ubiquitous nature of social networking has become a major boon in this age of web solutions and emerging technologies. There have been so many improvements in what was once referred to as “Knowledge Management” as a platform, and now is “social networking” at its core. No longer are we bound by even modern tools, […]
In the recent past, and I would say –Â for an old guy like me — that’s something like 5-10 years, I’ve really enjoyed the ability to use technology in helping me find my way around. Just think about all of the great mobile abilities you have, these days, that allow you to help yourself in […]

Recently (like 4 days ago), while trying to re-enter the world of consolidated - easy to deal with - email, calendars and all sorts of information sharing, I decided to try something I’d done in the past: use one email tool to help consolidate my accounts. I have a few, but not too many. I […]
I’ve been sitting here playing with a few different online tools like Backpack, Twitter, IMified, and AirSet. Though I think all of these tools are pretty cool, I’m just not getting it, I suppose.
While I’m playing with these things on my laptop, I’m wondering what good they would do someone like me. See, the […]
Obviously, it’s been a while since I’ve written. I won’t get into the details, but there were a number of valid reasons. But let’s just talk about how embracing mobile technology can simplify your life.
If you talk to my buddies James and Kevin at JKOnTheRun.com, these Masters of Mobile can certainly tell you that this type of technology […]
Twitter (the craziest good idea in social networking) has certainly become one of the most rapidly growing Web 2.0 applications I have ever seen. There is such a flurry around it - and yes, I use it, too. You can see my twitterificness (not to be confused with the twitterific Mac application) under my cartoon […]
I got to thinking about the benefits of teleworking (or telecommuting, if you prefer). Many times we look at this subject with the positives of who gains what. Companies see the benefits being lesser office crowding, fewer required parking spaces, desk sharing, and energy savings based on few people drawing power, heat, air conditioning, and […]
While I’ve realized the world of licenses has gotten a little strange, over time, I had no idea it had gone so completely awry, until I read this from Cory Doctoro, which points out some interesting fine print and a little commentary of the views of some license agreements:
The worst offenders are people who sell […]
The other day, I was reading an article about whether or not it made sense to use more technology in the classroom. Some of the arguements for it were that it would be easier to deal with carrying so many books around and always having the content at your fingertips, along with the ability to […]
Website author John Geraci suggests that maybe it’s time to turn the world into a real-life web artform. His intention is to see the real world with URLs written onto it.
“Grafedia turns New York into a potential webpage.”
Grafedia is hyperlinked text, written by hand onto physical surfaces and linking to images, video, sound files, etc. […]
I couple of weeks ago, I blogged a quick article on how Lance Armstrong was suing Mike Anderson over a contract that Anderson claims and Armstrong denies ever existing. Well, they’re at it again, now with Anderson suing Armstrong.
An Associated Press article published by VeloNews.com said:
“A former personal assistant of Tour de France champion Lance […]
Well, OK, it’s not magical. It’s highly scientific! There’s an emerging technology which is bringing us the wonderful new, self-cleaning glass product from Pilkington Corporation. That new technology is nanotechnology; a science with a million uses in our near future.
The Pilkington Active Self-Cleaning Glass product is coated in a chemical layer that reacts with ultra-
violet […]
Recently, while purchasing a few top-level domains, I began wondering why we need so many domain suffixes. By that, I mean, the .COM, .NET, .ORG, where confusing enough to most people. Many people only think about the .COM domain when given a ‘web address.’ I know this because, even when I am explicit to people, […]
The Humanga Tongue Dog Toy is a ridiculous rubber-ball fetch toy that looks like a tongue, on the long end. While your dog has the ball-end in his mouth, the huge tongue dangles out like a cartoon character’s tongue would when he’s seen food, or a beautiful woman!
For a mere $13 for the largest sized […]
The big question is: Can I actually save money by commuting to work riding a bicycle?
The answer is a simple, and pleasurable, Yes! Many people consider cycling as a primary form of exercise, and use cycling commutes as a way to get their regular cardio workout. So, while you’re losing weight (or keeping trim), why […]
I want to write some articles and submit them to magazines and news sites.
I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time, but have only recently been inspired by a friend to actually get started on it.
These are the topics for the articles that I’m writing:
1. Home Automation and internetworking (I’ve been writing a […]
