Facebook Is Making Everyone Searchable
I spoke about this in today’s session on Protecting Your Online Reputation. http://lifehacker.com/reminder-facebook-is-making-everyone-searchable-check-1443876249
The West Wing
Just got through going back through all seven seasons of The West Wing. This is without a doubt the best written drama I’ve had the pleasure of watching. It aired 1999 – 2006 and was a weekly show revolving around the inner workings of the Josiah Bartlet presidency. Martin Sheen played the President and the […]
Life360
While reading a Lifehacker post on what successful and techy people use I stumbled upon the Life360 app. This site and corresponding smart phone app (iPhone/Android/BlackBerry) helps you keep track of family members via GPS. After a quick installation you’ll be asked to create an account. I did this from their site and this makes the process […]

A while back I started a series of posts outlining and reviewing the tools I use on a regular basis.

Kevin & Bethany Paige – Beautifully Broken

Airlines Just Don’t Get It
Just read on CNN [external link] that certain airlines are shrinking legroom in their coach seats. Being 6’3″ I have some experience with these small seats. “Not comfortable” doesn’t begin to cover it. In the article there are some stats of ‘seat pitch’ and other factors but a 3rd grader can tell you that given […]
