  1. Home : Inform http://ff.im/3TiwQ
  2. Been playing around with Readyboost: using USB thumb drive as extra RAM. Seems to help laptop with only 512 RAM. Not... http://ff.im/35NLg
  3. If nothing else Readyboost saves writing to hard-drive and conserves battery. Will wear out thumb drive but MS says... http://ff.im/35Odw
  4. Facebook Says No to Nursing Mothers, Yes to Anti-Semitism http://ff.im/32Mi2
  5. I like the 3rd of these "10 Ways to Build Traffic to Your Site": write useful original content. Yep, piece o' cake. http://bit.ly/qBZp0
  6. @betajames I'm trying out the group function. I like the notification.
  7. I'm trying out TweetDeck. Not seeing the big advantage yet. I may have to write my own client.
  8. Our county has its first confirmed case of the swine flu. Lets all go wash hands! http://bit.ly/725Z7
  9. 100 Tools for the Twittering Teacher: http://bit.ly/z3C2
  10. Mitch Gann's take on Ray Kurzweil and the Singularity: http://bit.ly/OnM5q
  11. Checking out WolframAlpha at http://www.wolframalpha.com/ You pose a query, say "earth moon" and it gives you the data for an answer.
  12. Windows 7 installed without incident on my desktop PC. Using it now. Seems at least as nimble as XP was on same machine.
  13. Windows 7 install goes on. 54% of Step 1 complete. Four steps after that. I figure to replace computer before 1 yr trial is up.
  14. EverNote process works fine for tweets or direct messages. (See http://bit.ly/hUTYj). But of what utility? Haven't used EverNote much.
  15. Playing around with this stuff while I install Windows 7 on desktop. Possibly a foolish move. But OS seems robust, tolerant of old hardware.
  16. Trying new service from EverNote http://bit.ly/hUTYj Allows saving of tweets to EN if you include @myEN anywhere in message.
  17. New study refutes earlier findings that Facebook hurts student grades. FB use more common for those w/ good grades. See http://bit.ly/DO8Yt
  18. American Federation of Teachers (my union) details decline of tenured faculty over past decade in new report: http://bit.ly/aKQe4
  19. Kindle DX will sell for $489. Too steep for me. At that price, can only textbook piracy save it? One writer thinks so: http://bit.ly/flJwj
  20. Listening to Leo Laporte's Tech Guy radio show http://live.twit.tv
