Acer Inc. said it will launch a low-cost computer that runs on Google Inc.’s Android operating software
I’m a big fan of the “netbook” format. I started w/ an Asus eee and realized that the MSI Wind was a cheap upgrade w/ a larger screen…and was hackable. [...]

Wired News: Digg Fights Top Users For Control – Some of the generals in Digg.com’s army of volunteer news readers are in revolt over new abuse controls that could undermine their influence on the site.
Blah blah blah. I spent some time on Digg, but it just seemed like a buncha bullshit to me. They are [...]

Todd Dominey has a very pimped-out office. Very nice, love how the cables are hidden through a compartment under the desk.
My main home computing environment, is a laptop in my lap or on the coffee table while I’m sitting on the floor. This is [...]

Normally, I shy away from these type of links. But I’m trying to purchase both an eMate & a wireless card sometime this week. I would like a simple little “notes” machine and an eMate will more than do the job.

I’m testing Google’s Writely online word processor. It’s not bad, haven’t played with it enough to say either way. I have a strong suspicion that my work will probably block this through their filters, because of the minute possibility of someone using this to violate privacy.
It’s neat enough, that [...]
