A small school’s BIG cost
Small schools (K12 and Colleges with less than 1,000 students) are accustomed like all of us to accessing email around the clock. We know email is habit forming at best and compulsive at worst. The new economy proves funding 24/7 in-house email services can be staggering as budgets are slashed. Many schools have embraced [...]

Is Google Wave a “failure” ?
I cannot help but share my thoughts about all those who are predicting the stillbirth of Google Wave. Since this topic frequently hits the popular list at del.icio.us more than I care to see, its worth reminding everyone that beta or “limited preview” as Google refers to Wave is just that – a preview [...]

Apple design in 30 years
I have been very fortunate to have worked at Apple as a System Engineer during the introduction of some of the products in this visualization.

My latest read – Our Choice
Al Gore’s latest book Our Choice: A Plan to Solve the Climate Crisis should be considered by anyone interested in learning how the world can conserve resources with next generation technologies to reduce the globe’s carbon footprint.
Its easy to think this book is a political sequel to An Inconvenient Truth. That would be a mistake. [...]

My latest read – The Post-American World
Fareed Zakaria’s The Post-American World is an enjoyable read. Most would recognize his CNN show Fareed Zakaria GPS. He has also participated in the World Economic Forum in Davos. The bottom line: The US is not falling behind, but rather quite simply the world is catching up. Some amazing technologies are lifting the citizens of [...]
