I wonder how long people will accept the current state of privacy.
Internet privacy has been an issue almost since there was an internet. From UseNet’s to twitter, the ability to quickly and easily publish anything is a great temptation, especially with the innate need that people have to share information and to talk about themselves and their friends. The range of tools to carry out these goals, and the ease of use in achieving them has been dwarfed only by the associated complexity of managing the privacy iss … Read More
I found my problem. The zoom ratio can be increased/decreased by double clicking with 3 fingers, then dragging up to increase or down to decrease the zoom ratio.
This is interesting for an overview of how often a brand is mentioned.
If you care about social media and your brand, then you should try this tool, socialmention It aggregates content across 100 or more social media sites in real-time. Enter your search terms and wait a few seconds for the results. (…wait for it…) I searched “pop tarts.” Pop-Tarts are in my thoughts every since I heard about the Pop-Tarts restaurant . I also gave in to a sudden craving and bought a box (blueberry). Back to my socialmentio … Read More
I forgot about some of these. I wonder how much money was spent on all of this?
The recent net-neutrality debacle involving Google and Verizon has really started to get my blood boiling. It has also made me give a lot of thought to this company, who has this cult like following, seems there are more Google fan-boys out there than you can count, and all of them display a ridiculous amount of blind “homer-ism”. That is to say, Google can do no wrong, no matter what the circumstances. They hold their deity up as a beacon of … Read More
Google Crowned King of Malware – PCWorld. I once got an infection from visiting a Google link. Fortunately it was easily fixed. After that link scanning for Windows machines is something I strongly recommend. AVG does that very nicely.
You Are On Pandora: Service Hits 60 Million Listeners, Adding Users Faster Than Ever. I wonder how many of these are active accounts? I went back to listen but because I don’t pay for MobileMe I didn’t have access to the email account I used to sign up. So I didn’t remember the password and had to recreate a new account. I wish a free 3rd party service could force companies to clean up incorrect/outdated information about you online.

This is an interesting idea. Can the past success also decide the future success?
No, this isn’t some sort of epistemological exploration of what “right” really means, or whether such a thing can exist at all in a post-modern world. Quite the opposite: it is a blog entry on corporate culture and how that culture works, or doesn’t work, at successful companies, in this case Google and Microsoft. Peter Sims wrote a piece about why he thinks Google is potentially past its prime, on the way to becoming the next Microsoft. I don’t … Read More
This is an interesting program. If you are looking for another way to launch applications you might like this.
Windows “Start” menu is pretty cool – it acts much like a one stop shop for application launch, and it allows access to additional functions and computer locations. Overall, the start menu suits me well, but I’m always curious about tools that claim to make my Windows experience a little faster or, a little easier. So, when I came across a small free application from Microsoft Office Labs – Speed Launch, I took it for a spin. Speed Launch, at its … Read More
Google expert outlines future of search News TechRadar UK. From the “On top of that Google local knows the map of this place and it knows where all the sports shops are – so why cant this thing tell me ‘you have 45 minutes free in your agenda, there’s a sports shop 300 metres away go and buy a cricket bat’.
