This was invented to allow web applications to "percieve" the physical world around it. What I love, however, is that the internet used an internet app (kickstarter) to fund the invention, and first batch of manufacturing. One can almost see some future digitologist talking about how the people involved were like the messanger RNA, helping out the internet's DNA.

The bottom line is this. If you are an iPhone user this isn't going to make you switch. If you're an Android user you will want this phone more than any other. If you're currently neither, we recommend that you go with the Nexus S. It is better than the iPhone in most ways. What you lose with the slightly less impressive screen and iOS's slightly slicker user experience you will more than make up for with the Nexus S's ability to actually make phone calls that don't drop and Google's exceptional Navigation and voice input applications.

Chapter 1: We’ll always have Paris.

Biden was right, Barack will be tested very early in his presidency by foreign powers. The test however will not come form terrorists or rogue nations, but overzealous western nations. Imagine a scenario where Dick Cheney goes to Davos, or W heads to some conference in Africa, but on the way they are arrested for charges of war crimes, which have been sitting at the Hague as sealed incitements for violations of the Geneva Convention.

I have been using vista (with much reluctance) for a couple weeks with office 2007, and I can tell you. The good news is Vista isn't nearly as terrible as it was a year ago. The bad news is, the commercials are wrong, it still sucks. Microsoft has messed up both of their flagship products in short succession. No doubt that open office still sucks worse and google docs aren't really there yet, but MS you picked a terrible time to mangle your 2 best products.

Here is my review of the Baltimore Marathon:

Baltimore is a great run. First you you go up to and through druid park, and past the historic Lexington Market (home of Balitmore's best crab cakes.) Then the next 13 miles rotate around the inner harbor. Mile 11 takes runners out to Fort McHenry, which is the site of authorship of the "Star Spangled Banner". The view is awesome! Then you head back into the inner harbor. This is actually the worst part of the run, because there is too much temptation to call it at half way.

I was told by a friend not to pray to God for patience, because God has a tough way of teaching us patience. Like stranding us somewhere or making us wait a human eternity for something we really want. This attitude reflects one that I have found in my own prayer life. I find it difficult to pray when things are generally going well.

This video is quite moving. It was sent my Betsy Mitchel Henning at my church. She mused about why the difference in meaning when something written by a 30 something is sung by an 80 year old. Personally, I found my self crying for the singer, for myself, and for all of us.
