I just got back from attending the second day at the Apple World Wide Developer’s Conference. Due to an extremely busy week, this is the only day I can make it out. It looks like the iPhone 3G hype is in over drive!! I can’t wait myself to get one! It is very cool stuff. [...]
Based on what I have been hearing and seeing of the later half of 2007, I think the following trends will either hold and come about in 2008:

As much as I have jumped on the Facebook band wagon, I am beginning to get slightly annoyed by all the ‘Vampire Bites’, ‘Super Pokes’, and random requests I get. This in my mind is very manageable spam, but spam none the less. Is it just me here? Does anyone else consider this stuff to [...]
Today is the last day of October and I have just finished the very last issue of Business 2.0. This has been my favorite magazine since 2005. This is the only magazine I read cover-to-cover. It is a sad day indeed. Like most everyone out there, I get a lot of [...]

I always wondered about online television viewing. Sure everyone will watch a [...]
I have been reading endless buzz about Second Life. Yet I don’t know anyone that spends regular time on the site. Sure everyone has checked it out, but do they go back? This could be the classic example of over-hype (think Flock). I could be wrong. I did at one [...]

Rackspace
ServInt
ServerBeach
I know that the knock on Rackspace is that it is expensive, but [...]
While I was migrating my Firefox profile from one Windows XP profile to another, I somewhat panicked when I couldn’t get it to work and thought I had lost my valuable extensions. Well luckily I got Firefox to work and wrote down which extensions I use. I wonder if there is a way [...]
