Twitter Me . . . but Briefly

The evil of Twitter [http://www.ncregister.com/daily/twitter_can_make_you_immoral_claim_scientists/] : [http://www.ncregister.com/daily/twitter_can_make_you_immoral_claim_scientists/] > “Twitter can make you immoral, claim scientists.” So reported the U.K.'s Daily Mail on April 14. Hardcore Register

Did You Know?

Nifty 5-minute video a friend sent earlier this year: I haven't verified the interesting facts in the video, but I know teachers are showing it to their high school students, and the facts seem plausible enough (in an "implausible just ten years ago" way). A

Gmail

Anybody else use Google Mail? Anybody else have troubles accessing it the past two days? It's like the site has been completely crashed. I couldn't get on all day yesterday, got on last night once, then today it's down again. Go figger.

Stuff for Saturday

This might be the consumer tip of the year so far (okay, so it's only Jan. 5th, it's still a good tip): Asus Eee 4G-Galaxy 7" PC Mobile Internet Device [http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000Y33CVM/thedailyeudem-20]. Only $399, and it&

Stuff for Sporadic Saturday

Reminder: I don't blog on Saturdays. I haven't been for about three months. Though I've blogged every Saturday for the last three months, I'm not blogging on Saturdays. If that makes sense, you drank more beer than I did last night at

The Screaming Eudemon

Not much today. I had a ton of stuff: Lions draft day (best day to be a Lions fan), my idiot-savant Michael (a second-grader who can barely tie his shoes but has taught himself multiplication and other things, to the general head-shaking amazement of his no-nonsense

The New Computer Eudemon

I bought my first new computer in over three years. The Tech Guy installed it yesterday. It's pretty nice: 19" flat screen monitor, soft-touch keyboard, Windows Vista, most-current versions of all the standard software. I think I'm one of the first persons in

At TCS

I just published a piece with Tech Central Station about multi-tasking with the cell phone [http://www.tcsdaily.com/article.aspx?id=012207D], using my experience and Marshall McLuhan. Those interested in McLuhan (and maybe some others) might find it interesting. Excerpt: > I like multitasking, if it'
