He’s not a businessman, he’s a business, man.
Pharrell’s new website pharrellwilliams.com is coming soon along with his first solo album due out November 15th entitled In My Mind. Pharrell will be taking on a new alter ego called "Skateboard P." I guess it’s his new rapper nickname, since the new album is supposed to be [...]
All the geeks are yapping about Google’s new Instant Messaging/Voice Chat program called Google Talk. I’ve got it downloaded and installed, but all I’ve done so far is examine it’s squeeky-clean interface. If any of my geekier friends out there want to give it a try sometime, you can add me to your contact list [...]
Boeing had a test flight earlier today in Seattle featuring a new WiFi service which will hopefully be available on airplanes in the near future. For testing and to help publicize the event, they invited along several well-known bloggers. Chris Pirillo recorded his first posts here and here. It wasn’t long ago that it was [...]

I listen to more podcasts these days than music it seems. A growing problem with them, however, is that there are now over 5000 podcasts being indexed at iPodder.org’s directory. It’s becoming very difficult to find content-specific podcasts using such a simplified directory system. Podscope, a new high-tech tool powered by TVEyes could help alleviate [...]
Using the new satellite imagery feature of Google Maps, this brand new Google Sightseeing blog is a great way to tour the country and get search ideas. I especially like this post even though I didn’t initially understand what I was reading. Luckily, a good comment by a guy named Lucomo seems to have cleared [...]
Google continues to amaze! Check out the latest addition to Google Maps, a tool I’ve already raved about in the past. Google has incorporated their "Keyhole" technology into Google Maps allowing users to seamlessly toggle between map views and actual satellite images of a selected area.
