I have been using PBwik for over 6 months now and I can't live without it. PBwiki is a great tool to capture the random bits of stuff that I find floating around my brain and on the internet.Since I use multiple computers (Mac and PC both at home and work) I need a central place to store lots of information that I come across.-I use it to bookmark my favorite sites.-I use it to store random

While reading this article on emerging 3G wireless networks, I thought to myself, why would anyone want to have 3G technology integrated into their laptop. That's why laptops still come with PCMCIA slots so you can have freedom to put in what you choose. It does make sense that some functions that are standard (802.11G) should be built in because they aren't going to change anytime soon.

Storage is not easy. Sure anyone can add more hard drives into their PC or burn DVDs' of their Tivo transfers but I don't have time for that. I want to be able to slap in a cartridge with many hundreds of gigs, copy some stuff to it, pull it out and put it away.

I will be attending Macworld tomorrow on the poor mans pass (exhibit's only). Since many "insiders" and "experts" are giving their predictions for what Steve Jobs will wow us with this year I thought I would pretend that I am an expert too and spout my predictions.1. Of course Apple will announce the MacIntel box(es). This is not news. By the end of the day, there will be at least 100 sites

Of course all cool people know about the $100 laptop. Here's a video from Andy Carvin interviewing the CTO of the project. Will the children of Iraq get one of these before the children of the USA?

It was bad enough for Sony to distribute a rootkit on their CD's but for the RIAA to applaude Sony for wilfully destroying American's personal property is beyond belief. I'm all for paying artists for thier work and when I find music that I like I buy it. The issue that I have with the recording industry is that they only focus on the crap that is popular at the time.With all the advances in

From Boingboing.This site is almost as much fun as the Blue Ball Machine. Wonder how long it will last before the record companies shut them down for trying to brighten someone's day with music.

Today I am 40. I don't feel 40, I feel 34, kind of like the Intel 4004 chip which was the first single chip processor.

Here's an idea for the Record Industry to make a boatload of money. Start selling your back catalog online only. Doesn't cost that much to digitize it and put it up on iTunes. I know I'm not alone in stating that I would pay for alot more music if it were still in print.

I love it when all the companies that I do business with merge into one big kick ass company. Symantec's recent acquisition of Veritas and now Bindview make it better for me to leverage my purchasing power. Instead of dealing with 3 companies on a small scale, now I can throw some big dollars at one company and get better pricing for new software and support.

It seems that most of the conversations around the blogosphere are revolving around whether it's good or bad to supply poor children in third world countries with these PCs and how nobody will be able to make them becuase the production cost is unrealistic. What's the problem with trying to make an affordable PC for the rest of the world? If this device can be put into the hands of school

IE7 finally gets it. Not everyone is an uber dork and lives in a totally paperless world. The truth is that there are many things that read better on paper and always will. There are many sites that I print out to read offline and the formatting always sucks. Either the margins are wrong which cut off or I print the wrong frame or some other random things that just don't transfer well to

Downloaded the new iTunes 5. Coolest thing about it .... Folders. This should have been in iTunes long ago. I have about 100 smart playlists and I don't really need to see them everyday. I really just want them in a folder (oh wait, now I can). I now have a folder for Genere, Decade and Podcast Smart Playlists. I only use these when I make my own playlists. It's my way of filtering down

I am doing a search for Digital Asset Management software and resources. In my Google Search I came up with 5,710,000 results to sift through.

Just found out that my faithful Dell servers that have been working flawlessly for 5 years are no longer eligible for warranty coverage. I'm not going to go "Blogneurotic" on their ass (that means get way over passionate over something that's not a big deal) but I'm not super happy. I love Dell business PCs and servers. They have served me well. I have had very few issues with Dell servers

Peter Jennings dies at 67. Read the story on ABC's websiteDidn't realize that he was a pretty kick ass journalist for many years before becoming a talking head. I always liked watching him during major news events. He never sensationalized the news like the Brokaw or Rather or the Fox Nazis.

Why is DOS so bad? I keep reading all these articles about DoS attacks and I don't like it. Sure sure, everyone loves to use a mouse to move around and it's much easier to look at porn in Windows but DOS is still the quickest way to get something done on a PC.
