I’m really disappointed with the stability of Leopard for me personally. I’ve never had a rougher OS X UPGRADE experience. the OS itself is great. And if you buy a new computer – or do the “archive and install” (replacing, not upgrading your old OS) everything is rosy. but for guys like me who’ve been [...]
Ok I’m not usually a link-blogger but here are two gizmodo links right up my alley: One guy put a camera around kitty’s neck: http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/meeowvision/mr-lee-gives-catseye-view-of-the-world-via-neckcam-283736.php And the garment industry can now create hidden messages only viewable on digital cameras. Now you can have subversive free speech only viewable to camera-toters. http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/more-than-meets-the-eye/kameraflage-images-only-visible-through-a-digital-camera-282689.php Technorati Tags: catcam camera [...]

Well, it seems like a number of our presidential candidates have gone down to crazy town and are blithely open to the concept of tactical nuclear strikes against Iran. This Reuter’s article, Republicans: Iran must not have nuclear arms, highlights some of the madness: Wolf Blitzer asked: “If it came down to a preemptive US [...]
One of the biggest challenges to “mobile computing” (besides battery life) is outdoor readability. (If you’ve ever squinted through your sunglasses trying to dial on your windows mobile phone, you know what I’m talking about). Recently I had an old EO 72xx UMPC upgraded to a transflective screen. It cost a few hundred dollars for [...]
There are these little plastic protectors that go over electrical sockets to protect them from toddlers. This morning while vacuuming the vacuum suddenly stopped… and on the other end of the line, my son had yanked the cord and was replacing the plastic cover, presumably to keep it safe from babies.

I’ve lived in short walking distance from the Topanga Westfield mall for nearly a decade. I have been there literally hundreds of times with my daughter. They recently doubled the size of the mall, adding an Apple store, a 2-story carousel, a Target, and a bunch of amenities. The problem is, it has always been [...]
A recent article I wrote, Monetizing Podcasts & Videoblogs, was just published in Streaming Media magazine and has now been reprinted on streamingmedia.com. “Any business built around podcasts and videoblogs has to start with the fundamentals: Compelling content that can be exchanged with an audience for their attention.
