Human beings have never had as much data as they currently have today. The interweb contains hundreds of thousands of terabytes of information. Those numbers may tell the most tech-savvy reader the story if you stop long enough to read and process them, but very few people have time or ability to do [...]
These last two weeks have been (thank God) much more relaxed than any two weeks I can remember in a long time. I have, as a result, returned to reading for pleasure.

I’ve decided to heed my own advice, and become even more serious. I’m testing out feedburner right now. A lot of people use it, and I’m interested to see what it provides. I’m not to hopeful, since I think Google’s purchase of it will lead to some changes in the near future.

The New York Times reports that Google has filed a complaint against Microsoft. Basically, Google contends that Microsoft’s new operating system discourages competition. Vista includes built-in search, which rivals Google’s program that indexes your desktop. Since Vista’s search cannot be turned off, Google’s ability to compete is threatened. That’s the gist [...]
Earlier, I told you all about openId. Jeremy Z. of Yahoo! fame agrees with me (actually chronologically speaking, I agree with him). I encourage you all to enable openId with your blogs, sites or whatever. I’m about to design a new site which I can’t tell you about, but I will make sure [...]
