Here’s the scenario… I’m driving along in my car, and a great song comes on the radio. I want it. Why can’t I say “Siri, get me this song!”, or tell Google’s Android to get it, whichever applies to you. Then my mobile would “listen” to what I’m listening to, ask me if I want [...]
When somebody builds this, please let me know. I thought it up in 2009, and figured I’d have done it by now. I’m too busy, so you can have it. The Nutshell I fire up the mobile app, hit the Start button, and my mobile starts shooting video. Then, based on the settings I have [...]
Hi Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, are you listening? Here’s what I want as your next revolutionary product… The iPal. It is a robot, built to the standards of Apple products, controllable by iPads, iPhones, and iPods, and comes in under $500. Say $499 shall we? Most importantly, and the reason why you should do [...]
Ok, someone needs to do this…. We’ve all seen the commercial, or read the blog article, by now… you know, the one where somebody attaches a camera to a weather balloon and sends it up into space. Pretty cool! Until they have to chase it down and find it. Well, that whole contraption needs to [...]

Then ads stopped telling you why you should vote for something, and instead focused on why you shouldn’t vote for that other something. [...]
Remember the old Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups commercials that always had two people bumping into each other, where one had a chocolate bar and the other had a random jar of peanut butter? “Hey, you got your chocolate in my peanut butter!”, then “No, you got your peanut butter on my chocolate!” So an Occupy [...]
Life is good. Living it isn’t always a bed of roses, but being alive and breathing is good. Sure, you may have a problem or three right now, and those problems might be interfering with the plans you had for your life; but the bottom line is that living and breathing in itself is opportunity. [...]
I love baseball. I could watch it all day, in its present form, no changes required. But that doesn’t mean it couldn’t be better. Firstly, and perhaps most obviously, I would embrace the use of technology in the sport. The “purists” are probably shuddering at the mention of this, but believe it or not, I [...]
The Tablet (read: iPad, GalaxyTab, Xoom) is a marvel to me. It rapidly gained in popularity despite being a more expensive, over-sized smartphone – sans the phone. Don’t misunderstand me though; I enjoy innovation, and understand why they’re useful. And I even have one. I just wish I didn’t have two of the same thing [...]
I guess ICANN is moving towards letting people and companies use .anythingtheycanthinkof as a domain, and netizens aren’t too happy about it. And I understand why. So let’s propose something better… How about we remove the dots altogether? Why can’t I just type “google” or “facebook” into my browser address bar, have it go to [...]
