In a Fast Company article about Boing Boing (I haven't read the whole article yet but this jumped out at me and I really need to write about this): "It isn't that Pescovitz doesn't understand what the blog business has become; he just figures that...

Man, I hate medical metaphors. So I apologize for my pseudo-medical blog post title. And I ask Daniel Pink to stop using "sclerosis" unless he decides to get an MD (though I should say that I otherwise find him a very interesting writer). This article...

People are seriously wigging out here about some weather. Monday it snowed; a couple inches, now deemed a "storm"...I even saw "blizzard". Ach. I contend that everyone who insists on driving on a "snowy" day do ten years of snow driving before they...

I'm generally a little disintersted in technology when it has a vague reason for existing. LinkedIn was something I couldn't see being important to users because connecting with people they didn't know seemed like an anonymous popularity contest. And...

Computer Engineer Barbie is making me 1) love the intention and 2) hate the medium. But I 1) love that the kids are excited and am 2) throwing up a little bit. And also 1) this is not the 1950s and 2) can we stop idealizing what it means to be a woman...

Sometimes I think the Interwebz are dumb. Or suveys are total BS. Someone is jumping to a causality conclusion when perhaps a little commons sense could be employed. Like maybe comparing the Twitter usage to other media, online and otherwise, than...

You'd have to be living under a rock to not know about the Google salary bump reported this week : Google increases employees salaries by 10% with some other stuff thrown in. Sweet. It's not an entirely stupid move on Google's part because...wow, the...

Oops. Did I just write that on my blog? I look at the homes of the top ten tech titans (by someone's standards) and I really wonder at what point "enough" transitions "into way over the top." OK, there are some steps in-between, but still. So, I will...

I'm a Groupon user and a FourSquare critic. I like deals, and as long as I can convince myself NOT to buy things I won't use on Groupon, it's something that I will continue to be interested in. FourSquare is less interesting to me. And by less interesting...

This is a sucky, though interesting, problem. Google sends thousands (how many thousands? Dunno) to the wrong polling places. OK, Google is a company, not a political entity (well, not as it's sole purpose for existing). But this does raise a question...
