Email And Cellphone Contacts Are The Real Social Graph

Scott echoes a point I made just a few days ago in my predictions post… email is the ultimate social network but the lack of contact granularity makes it problematic as a social network. I also think that just trying to mimic Facebook feeds through an email UI introduces more problems than benefits. By way […]

Tigers Gone Wild

I’ve been watching the tragic case of the tiger attack at the SF zoo on Christmas day with a lot of interest. My son loves the zoo and in particular the big cats. Having said that I don’t think we’ll ever go back to this zoo unless the director is replaced, the exhibits meet minimum […]

Featured Blog - Intuitive Life Business Blog

I’ve never met Dave Taylor but I have read his blog for years, Intuitive Life Business Blog.

I am recommending this blog because the writing is excellent, the subject matter diverse, and Dave engages readers in the comments.

It’s What Is INSIDE the Machine that Counts

Mossberg says that Dell’s XPS One has the right stuff… still needs to be decrapified.

In my tests, I found the XPS One to be much better designed and equipped than Gateway’s iMac competitor, also called the One. In fact, the Dell XPS One is the first Windows all-in-one desktop I’ve tested that I […]

2008 Predictions

I told my friend Kevin that I wasn’t going to write the boilerplate predictions post, but here I am writing a post titled 2008 Predictions! In thinking about it, this is less about what I think is going to happen in 2008 and more about the themes and memes that I find interesting.

1) […]

Trends: You People Are Buying A Lot Of Champagne

There is speculations that Americans are starting to drink champagne just because they like it, and not necessarily because they have something to celebrate. [From Trends: You People Are Buying A Lot Of Champagne]

We’ve been drinking sparkling wine on a regular basis for years, it’s nice before a meal instead of wine. Also, flutes are […]

Skills Shortage

Ben wrote a post about the H-1B visa program and included comments I made about that in previous writings. This reminded me to write something about what I’m seeing with increasing frequency over the last year, a serious skills shortage. Before moving on to that topic, I will say that in reading the comments to […]

The UK is Insane

I read news from the UK and shake my head at how far off the rails that country has gone. Take this example of the latest nanny state initiative, equating using a cell phone while driving with driving while intoxicated. Actually, it’s considered worse than DUI because drinking and driving is not illegal, as in […]

Dude, Where’s My Market?

First and foremost, props to Jevon MacDonald for inspiring the title of this post, indeed I may just have poached the title of something he is working on.

The Irregulars had a thread over the last day that has been moderately commented on, but nonetheless serves as a catalyst for something I didn’t realize I was […]
