You may remember that I wondered a couple of days ago whether you were permitted to and if so, how you might go about setting up more than one Twitter account. The answer, as I read the service agreement, is that it is permitted primarily because it is not expressly prohibited. My reason for wanting [...]
If you search back through this blog or check the categories listing in the sidebar for the word “Flock,” you’ll find lots of references. That’s because I began beta testing it (almost alpha testing it) several years ago. There were many things I liked about it back then that are still present in the latest [...]
I spent 55 minutes of my early Saturday morning watching this video, laughing and sometimes being moved to tears, but overall feeling it was one of the best hours I’ve spent in a long time.

This episode of Robert Scoble’s Fastcompany explains in more detail what Evernote is and what it is capable of doing. It runs about 28 minutes and some of the best stuff is in the second half. If you can spare the time to watch this discussion, thinking of your own situation as I [...]

Even back about 20 years ago we were talking about self talk. Self talk is that internal dialogue you have perhaps subvocally with yourself throughout the day. Sometimes the voice in your head can be condemning. Often it’s very critical. Unfortunately it’s often very critical of yourself. And when your self talk is sufficiently critical [...]
On October 21st I posted here about the fact that I couldn’t boot from the recently released Live CD version 7.10 of Ubuntu, the so-called Gutsy Gibbon. That post attracted more comment than any other ever has on this blog as others reported that they too had encountered the same problem. One of those who [...]
