So I had a friend coming over to visit yesterday, and I had sent my address to her over email. Fortunately, I decided to go one step further and look up the driving directions for her using Google maps as well. Well, to my dismay, the directions given would have directed her down a one-way … Read More
So as I wrote about in an earlier post, my Sony Vaio crashed last week and so I’ve been backing everything off of it using a Lacie 40 GB Mobile Harddrive. I choose the Lacie drive simply because it had the best price point, and frankly, I’m a sucker for gimmicks (he Lacie drive was … Read More
Apple paid tribute to Rosa Parks by bringing back their Think Different campaign and changing their front page to primarily display the a black and white photo of her. I didn’t even know about this until reading about it in CNet.

Well I’ve finally got around to adding Feedblitz to my site – surprisingly, I’ve actually had some of you suggest this. let’s see how it works.
In this article, the founder of Wikipedia admits to serious quality problems to one of the much evangelicasized (is that a word??) services coming out of Web2.0. I’ve questioned Wikipedia for a while now. Sure it is great to get a gist of a particular topic, but rather than gaining real facts, you’ll learn more … Read More
I finally got around to adding the Hackoff.com link to my site. I was reminded by Fred Wilson’s post which for some reason showed up on my Bloglines list today. I agree that Word of Blog is a very cool service, but I’m not sure if it can take that much credit for the attention … Read More
