  1. Good night, Levon: rollingstone.com/music/photos/l…
  2. @joeservia Yeah: Funny how Google is the champion of the }open Web," yet they build walled gardens like everyone else. How you doing, man?
  3. I'm pushing my company to do these things: tinyurl.com/7lcj9wm
  4. Brin forgot to list his own company: tinyurl.com/cocmj6r
  5. Yesterday in Palm Springs I was yet again told I look like John Cusack. This time, by his personal lawyer.
  6. Ever been through the lines at the TSA? Ever deal with the IRS? Then SOPA and PIPA aren't the answer.
  7. My son James just got his Eagle Scout award. He also has a job. Kids these days.
  8. Went to Balboa Island to meet with George Ward this week. George created the Cisco Academy model. Talked about some pretty big ideas.
  9. After a diving trip, I cleaned the garage with the kids. Guess which one I liked better?
  10. Just heard from Joe Servia, fine musician and fellow Virgo. How you doing, Joe? Diving Day Island Wall tomorrow: tinyurl.com/84ga262
  11. Great dive this evening at Sund Rock. Saw gobs of ling cod, as well as 2 octopi and 4 wolf eels. My new dry suit worked perfectly.
  12. In honor of December 7th, I had ice cream with my neighbor, Eugene Kunishi, today. He served in the Japanese Navy during World War 2.
  13. Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups. I can say this with authority: I remember disco, Journey, and mullets.
  14. Gwen Britton just might be the coolest person I know.
  15. Looking forward to visiting with John Kemp, owner of Abilities! Online.
  16. Nice search engine: blekko.com
  17. Picked up a new kayak this week: http://tinyurl.com/4s5ubxe. Didn't need to get the HV, but it's great for big trips and big water.
  18. You know, this is why the Web was made: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/parenting/detail?entry_id=62128
  19. I know where Linus Torvalds dives.
  20. Had a great conversation with Julia Fallon, Washington State's EdTech guru. She's terrific.
