Gmail Prioritizes Email and My Life… Again
Google-a-holic. Perhaps that is what I have become, along with millions of others. I depend on Google to surf the web, provide my favorite browser, run the OS and apps on my cellphone, take care of my personal email, and … Continue reading
Big Ass Laptop
I guess that while the majority of us want the fastest, biggest and baddest computing device we can find, some people are absolutely content with their old, slow, big ass laptop. We remember how wondrous using these devices were back in the day, but now don’t appreciate the true wonder of them. Continue reading

Google Earth Art – Free Masterpieces Await
Google Earth, well known as an incredible tool along with Google Maps (and on my Droid, Google Navigation) – but some people are taking it to a whole new level as art. The image shown here is a portion of an image which was originally a $1MM photograph by artist Andreas Gursky, yet re-created by Florian Freier using Google Earth, photoshop and an inkjet printer.

Remember ‘Breakout’? Try Cubeout Retro Fun!
Breakout was a classic 80s arcade video game that many of us old enough to remember, surely do. These days, it’s not so hard to get your retro fun – with those little controllers you hook to your TV and get all the oldies and such, but when I stumbled across this little game called ‘Cubeout’ from the folks over at Randombyte, I couldn’t help but share it with you!

Google, oh Google – do you know too much?
Okay, I admit Google is my preference for, well, pretty much everything I want to find. Haven’t used a different search engine in months, perhaps longer. But tonight, for some reason, I realized how much Google really does know about … Continue reading

Logitech Wireless DJ System – ROCKS!
It’s not usual for me to drool all over any new piece of hardware – it takes a lot, and today – well, I found one of those things when I decided to try out the Logitech Wireless DJ Music System. Let me tell you – there is nothing for me to complain about with it. First of all, let me explain what exactly this thing is. It’s a way for you to have multiple music receivers in your home utilizing a single PC as the primary music source. Up to four receivers can be used one location. The receiver doubles as a charging station for the uber-cool remote control. Continue reading

Talk about eye-hand coordination extreme! Continue reading

Google Apps… Joining in the Foray..
My turn to talk about Google Apps – it’s the news of the week and no one can stop talking about it. To me, I have Google Apps, but I just can’t get used to their spreadsheets, I need the power of Excel – I’ve migrated in my life through PerfectCalc on a Kaypro II, Lotus 1-2-3, Quattro, Excel and now Excel 2007, which I see as a completely new application that allows you to truly flex all the muscle and power that Excel has to offer.
Don’t get me wrong, I think the days of physical software distribution are numbered – there just isn’t reason for it – and move to flash drives for lords sake. For all the money we spend, a few extra bucks for the distribution medium shouldn’t hurt anyone, especially Microsoft, at all. The only reason someone should have to buy physical software would be in a recovery effort, being able to boot from a USB flash drive and recover, or remove system ailments, etc. Continue reading

Breakdancing? Sharing online.
Breakdancing, as many of you are aware, is not one of my hobbies – however this video features breakdancing – or better yet is a tutorial to the basic steps. That’s the purpose of this post, sharing.
Since the advent of YouTube, people have finally been able to spread their knowledge to a nearly limitless audience instead of the boys and girls from the neighborhood. This guy has taken the time to really explain the basic steps of breakdancing, and it’s pretty cool.
What can you share with the world? Everyone’s always wanted their 15 seconds, so what will yours be? Continue reading
