Are Your Kids Watching Wrestling on TV?

by @ 7:06 pm. Filed under -That Health Rules


Here in Cebu, we will be hosting the ASEAN summit and as a result schools will be closed for the holidays earlier.  So from Dec 8 onwards…it’s the start of a long vacation.  And from Dec 2 to 9, my wife and I will travel to explore South Africa…so while we’re away…our kids fortunately will be in school during the day but will be with their yayas in the afternoon.  And when these kids stay home…either they’re hooked to the computer or to the TV.  Unsupervised…we may wonder what these kids are ...

Photo blogs are good for the soul

by @ 7:05 pm. Filed under basin


I love a good photo blog. One like Joanna Rees has. Any others we should be aware of?

I love reading feeds

by @ 7:01 pm. Filed under basin


How many feeds are you subscribed to? I’m increasing my feed load rapidly again. Why? Reading feeds is a joy again, thanks to Google Reader. I’m not alone, either. Two people came up to me after our talk today and said “thank you for talking about Google Reader.” “U, J, J, J, J, J, K, J, Shift-S, J, J.” If you don’t get that, then you haven’t used Google Reader yet and you haven’t started a link blog of your own. Three questions: 1) Am I putting too many items on my link blog? ...

Microsoft beats Google in Gizmodo mobile maps shootout

by @ 6:19 pm. Filed under basin


It’s funny, a friend told me Microsoft couldn’t innovate anymore and that Google was going to eat its lunch. Oh, yeah? Gizmodo held a Microsoft vs. Google mobile map shootout. Love this quote: “So which is better? Without a doubt, Microsoft’s was the winner.”

Seagate?s CEO: I help people ?watch porn?

by @ 5:53 pm. Filed under basin


I like Bill Watkins, CEO of Seagate. Not just cause he sponsored my show for the first three months. But because he says outrageous things. To Fortune magazine. Heheh, that brings to mind this video: The Internet is for porn. It’s actually not porn at all. And it’s on Google video. You can watch an interview I did with Bill too a few weeks back. Yes, he is an interesting interviewee. Oh, and I hear that if you’re a blogger, you’ll get to meet Bill at CES in our BlogHaus, which is sponsored ...

Koral would make Vista cool

by @ 5:13 pm. Filed under basin


Koral has a knowledge management system that is the coolest thing I saw at the SAP show recently and I have a demo and an interview on ScobleShow today. Look at how it keeps Excel spreadsheets and other files in sync. Demo (9:20). Interview (22:39). Oh, there’s lots of stuff on Vista around today. I put the best on my link blog. Including this list of ways Microsoft could make Vista better by Jeremy Toeman. Heheh, John Dvorak is tired of baiting Mac users, so now he’s going to bait Windows users to ...

What to do if you are having a bad day blogging

by @ 5:07 pm. Filed under basin


Getting attacked? Can’t figure out what to say? Sad that your audience has gone to read Digg or Mike Arrington? Read this post on Global Voices online about an Egyptian blogger who was jailed. That should make you feel better about your bad day and give you something to get angry about, all at once.

Linking to Sarah Blow

by @ 4:41 pm. Filed under basin


Heheh, Sarah Blow was at a little dinner we threw tonight and she was giving me some virtual heck for not linking to her. Oh, Sarah, I Google’d you this morning, looked at all three of your blogs, and didn’t see an update for 10 days, so didn’t link. I guess she doesn’t listen to Steve Gillmor, who said that not getting a link is a sign of respect.

[NSFW] Is ‘GNU/Solaris’ emerging from Microsoft-Novell deal?

by @ 4:36 pm. Filed under


'It's just a f*cking kernel...' NSFW Richard M. Stallman has never had much truck with the re-branding campaign that gave the world the phrase "open source". Stallman, who authored the original General Public License to give legal muscle to his desire to ensure software freedoms are not curtailed, has always declined to count himself as a member of any "open source movement".…
