This morning I was mowing the lawn while listening to the “This Week in Google” podcast on my mp3 player.  I was listening to episode 42 when they spend the entire podcast speaking about Facebook and their perceived privacy issues.  They spend a considerable amount of time pointing out what they believed to be Facebook’s [...]

I can still remember the day vividly when Facebook purchased Friendfeed. There were those l will not name that immediately proclaimed that Friendfeed was dead.  It was a mantra that was so loud that even the most apathetic person around could hear.  It was almost as if the tactic of the media was used to [...]

It was brought to my attention this evening that my blog was down.  Actually I knew it for a couple days because my browser defaults to this page.  Since we have had other priorities with working on the house, the web site took a back seat.  It was an easy fix and only had a [...]

For those of you that are sitting around on pins and needles waiting for an invite to Google Wave, do not waste your time.  I was doing the same thing from May until October until some nice gentleman sent me an invite.  This invite came in October, over a month ago and so far there [...]

Last week I finally received my invite to Google Wave and I have not been able to test it the way I wanted to.  The problem is that Google has stopped allowing new invitees to be able to send out invites to others.  I think they are on a limited basis with some people but [...]

With all the news lately about Facebook purchasing Friendfeed last week and everyone saying they were going to go to Google Reader I thought I would move some stuff.  For the last week we have been hearing “Friendfeed is dead” to a point that it is ridiculous.  The truth is that Friendfeed is NOT dead [...]

A while back I finally succumbed to the peer pressure and started using Gmail as my email interface.  I allowed everyone to convince me of the virtues of dealing with Google since they are only second to Barack Obama, and Apple in their deity (sarcasm).  One of the reasons I allowed people to convince me [...]

Man I just experienced the most juvenile crying spell on Flickr a while ago that it made me sick.  I was just on a Flickr page and noticed a unanimous crying spell from people that Yahoo has just committed the unpardonable sin… As of today March 20, 2007 you must now use a Yahoo ID [...]
