Science Camp with the wires

My fifth grade son left for science camp today. Every year the entire fifth grade class leaves of the busses for a five day trip to the San Bernardino Mountains near Lake Arrowhead in California. At the camp they hike, climb, rope walk, dissect, rocket testing and other science type of things. There are no [...]

Heads should roll

I mentioned this before, but AT&T blows 4 billion dollars on the failed T-Mobile merger. At the time of the announce that AT&T was not pursuing the merger, AT&T said the the 4 billion dollars was going to be a write off and not affect the company. Do you know how many cell phones users [...]

RIM Must be Joking

I saw today that the crazy scheme at RIM to have two CEOs has finally fallen. They admit they probably need to focus more on consumer type of projects. Who do they pick to replace these two out of touch co-CEOs ? A former leader of Siemens. Can you name one consumer product from Siemens [...]

A Brief Rant to Hollywood

First it’s not Internet people, it’s the American People. In 1998 the government of the United States gave Hollywood the DCMA act, making it illegal to circumvent ripping a DVD, sorry I mean circumventing DRM whether copyright is proven or not.

Bye Bye Miss American Pie

The internet for me is basically down today. All the SOPA/PIPA protest from the internet companies have curbed their internet presence.
