Recognize the quote? Probably not, so I’ll give it to you. Aerosmith, Livin’ on the Edge. Yep. Why do I bring this up? Because Corvida wrote a post that some are going to take issue with, I’m sure, but I have to stand by:
I don’t think it’s a secret as to why I did it, […]

Regardless of who is to blame or what is causing it, our planet’s climate is in a state of flux. Let’s just get that out of the way now, shall we?
Great. Now let’s talk about dealing with realities here. Essentially as the world warms, etc we’re going to see a shift in things like where […]

Since Rogers Mobile announced their iPhone pricing this week, the reaction to their plans has been less that enthusiastic (to say the least).
RuinediPhone.com has started an online petition to Rogers to change their rate plans and an open letter to Steve Jobs on what is certainly a slap in the face.
Did I sign it? You […]

I think we’re in a rut. A semantic, AJAX-powered, XML-based, open source rut. I have had a hard time getting excited about tech news of late, hence the last little while I haven’t been posting as much nor with as much passion as I have in the past.
I’m looking at everything we’re doing and seeing […]

Cambrian House of Calgary closed its doors recently leading many to suggest that is was crowdsourcing that was to blame, but I think Mathew Ingram hit the nail on the head:
Does this mean that crowdsourcing startup ideas doesn’t work? I don’t think so — but it shows that simply coming up with good ideas isn’t […]

There was a bit of a dust-up recently about making lists of “bad PR people” and it’s taken me a while to get to this because I’ve been answering emails from PR folks. I put out a call on ProfNet that Manscaping 101 (my men’s grooming blog on b5media) was open for business and I’d […]

Today is the Technology Channel’s Theme day and we’re looking at “green” technologies (I’ll have the round-up post link here when it’s posted). While we might think that tools like RSS (as Juned suggests in his post on RSS as green tech) are truly green, are they really?

My friend Deb Schultz is a deep thinker. Something I love about talking with her. Okay that and she makes me laugh really hard. She has one of those 30,000 foot views of the world. Perspective. Something that we often forget as we write about the latest machinations of the Web 2.0 world.
Recently Deb, and […]

I blogged about my new Telus EVDO card this morning, I’ve been using it all day and been very much enjoying it. Okay I think I’ve found a conflict with my built-in SD card reader and the PCMCIA slot, but that might be an Acer thing and I’m not too worried right now. However, what […]

One of the outcomes of global warming will be sea level rise. Ever wonder what it might look like in your neighborhood? I do, but I pretty much knew that my apartment would be okay, however it’s really interesting to see it in living colour. I found this cool mashup of Google Maps with sea […]
