The majority of US Internet users think the Internet is aimed directly at their age group. That’s what the latest survey says.
Unless you’re 45 or above and at that age you have reached the point of thinking the Internet is undoubtedly for the young generation. So typically the young have shown distrust for those over […]

I always relish these two times of the year when I get jet lag without leaving the comfort of my home. Talking about good ole Daylight Savings Time here.
My sleep just gets really messed up. You wouldn’t think it would make that much of a difference would you? But no matter how I try to […]

You can now do a second search from the first Google search result but only if you happen to search for a select few big sites like Microsoft or craigslist and of course Flickr, YouTube, Amazon, etc. If you don’t already know the address for craigslist and do a search you get the result below.

Nearly a third of the first 500 employees at Google have already left the firm.
Seems like when you get rich after an IPO and have had a couple of years of dynamite stock growth, it takes a little of the edge off. Not that Google isn’t still a great place to work, but after you […]

Have you enjoyed the street level view, panoramic photos that Google has been loading up for us? It’s pretty neat looking at any part of town and 360′ing around looking at storefronts head-on, etc…especially in cities or parts of cities you’re not likely to ever be in anyway.
Poor man’s travel guide I suppose.
Well, how would […]

Ok, you’ve already got me beat with your 10Mb pipe. But just you wait till I get my really hi-speed connection. Ok again, you’ll probably have yours first, but check these numbers for jaw-dropping.

What’s Your Spam Count?
Posted on March 3, 2008 - Filed Under General | Leave a Comment
Since moving to Gmail, I’ve almost forgotten about spam. The filters do such a good job that I probably average less than 5 a day that slip through to my inbox.
Since all spam that’s been around 30 days old gets deleted, I got to wondering about the stuff I wasn’t seeing anymore. Not that I […]
Vista Discounts

Bill recently announced ‘huge’ price cuts for ’some’ of the Vista products sold in standalone box format. That made me wonder, just who is he targeting?
After all, most people get their OS in a new computer, and at the shelf prices they are asking for Vista (it’s a shame to even print the amount), the […]

If not familiar, Wikileaks.org is a whistle blower site that was shut down by court order on Feb 14 after publishing leaked documents that indicated a leading Swiss Bank was involved in money laundering.
