Vapirius AX2 - Dick Tracy For Real?

Watch Mobile Phone - Vapirius AX2 android 4.0. This watch doesn't connect to your phone via Bluetooth. It has Android 4.0, and a GSM micro SIM slot with an FM Radio tuner. It is a smartphone itself, and you can buy it now. Another Italian product; but, it is expensive, and I question the product name. After all, Vapor is normally used for products or software that don't exist. Are you willing to pay over $400 to find out? If so, let me know how it goes.

Wrist Computers - Not For The Weak

Zypad WL1500 : Latest generation wrist-wearable computer Eurotech. Before you start laughing at me because I wear a Sony SmartWatch, or an I'm Watch, you need to look at Zypad's wrist worn computers. Actually, the ruggedized versions have real life applications for first responders, homeland security, and disaster relief situations. But, this model is designed for the man who wants to make absolutely certain everyone knows he is not a metrosexual, and is a geek. Of course, even geeks might shy away from this guy. My shoulder hurts just thinking about wearing it.

Chrome Apps On Your Desktop And In Your App Tray

 Chrome Apps. If, like me, you live in the Googleverse, you have a lot of Google apps that you use. I use GMail, Google Calendar, YouTube, Chrome Store, Google Docs, Google Play, AirDroid, OpenOffice Writer, and others. Google has been gradually insinuating its apps into every corner of the daily browsing experience. Recently, a link to Google Apps appeared on the task bar of GMail. Yesterday, I found one prominently displayed on my Google Chrome browser bookmark bar. Now, there is a desktop version that places a Google Apps shortcut on the desktop. It will simplify your app life.

Saturday Morning

Find something joyful today.

"When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason to give thanks, the fault lies in yourself."

Hummingbird Will Make Google Searches Hum

Meet Hummingbird: Google Just Revamped Search To Answer Your Long Questions Better - Forbes. Has it been 15 years since Google entered our vocabulary and our lives? The new search engine algorithm from Google, code named Hummingbird, won't be noticeable to most of us. However, your searches will be much faster and better, and Google will be able to better understand the rambling searches we create. As Google Voice Search becomes our standard way of communicating with our phones and computers, the search engine has to get more attuned to the words we speak. Hey, Google, can you find the secret of life for me?

Control-Alt-Delete: It Wasn't Supposed To Happen

Control-Alt-Delete: Bill Gates Admits Windows%u2019 %u2018Three-Finger Salute%u2019 Was A Mistake [VIDEO]. Was the invention of Ctrl-Alt-Delete a mistake? Bill Gates seems to think so. However, the proponents of a one key switch were defeated by the famous three finger salute. IMHO, however, it was a good idea. You don't want an accidental press of one key to restart the system. You have a power button for that. A three key requirement shows you are serious about logging in or out. What's wrong with that?

Why I Am A Solo - Reason Number 184

Execupundit.com: The Most Toxic Item in the Workplace. This item by Execupundit highlights the biggest problem in many organizations, including law firms. Lack of trust in your fellow employees creates a toxic environment in which mistakes are made, problems grow worse, and solutions become impossible. Look around you. If you trust your fellow lawyers and support personnel, you are fortunate. I look around, and see no one. Then, I look in the mirror, and I trust the person who stares back at me. If you can't simplify your practice down to just yourself, eliminate those whom you don't trust. If you don't, something is going to blow up.

Apple Maps Gets Lost In Alaska

Apple Maps leads drivers onto Alaska airport taxiway | Crave - CNET. And, here we go again. Remember the Apple Maps Development team? Here is a photo, in case you forgot, or got "lost". Now, the buggy app has led drivers onto an airport taxiway. Oops. That could become a problem. While the Apple Maps problems have likely been overblown, as Steve Wozniak opines, they are just one more reason why Apple users use Google Maps to get around. Of course, if any map app told me to "turn left on to the runway", and I wasn't in the cockpit of a plane, I might think twice. But, that's just me. I could be wrong.
