NYTimes.com To Make You Pay For Content

Wed, 20 Jan 2010 17:25:43 +0000

Yup it’s all over the net in 2011 they plan to make you pay for access to their site. It’s a growing trend to those newspapers searching for revenue and dealing with the new tech age. It make sense for them but these days the minute an article is posted or what might be termed an “exclusive”, can’t you find it in 5 minutes on any bloggers site? The answer is yes, the net is a vast regurgitation of junk including this post you just read! hah… anyway good luck New York Times Online.

Links to regurgitation:

Google Docs giving new competition to Dropbox

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 18:57:10 +0000

If you know what dropbox is and you use google docs then you’re going to have a problem. Like dropbox, Google plans to let you upload whatever file type you want to your own space on their servers, so you can keep backups, photos, documents, etc online and always available.

See below

Over the next few weeks, we’re rolling out the ability to upload all file types to the cloud through Google Docs, giving you one place where you can upload and access your key files online. Because Google Docs now supports files up to 250 MB in size, which is larger than the attachment limit on most email applications, you’ll be able to backup large graphics files, RAW photos, ZIP archives and much more to the cloud. More importantly, instead of carrying a USB drive, you can now use Google Docs as a more convenient option for accessing your files on different computers…

Upload You Files and Access Them via Google Blog

Flu Trackers

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 19:32:48 +0000

There are 2 major flu tracking websites out there currently. One for the general flu and one for H1N1. I’ve attached the links below.

http://flutracker.rhizalabs.com/ This one is for H1N1.

http://www.google.org/flutrends/us/ This one is for the general flu.

I can tell you first hand that I’ve seen co-workers taking more sick days this year than in many previous years. Some of it might just be the paranoia of sickness since the media is harping on it pretty bad this year.

1-800-GOOG-411

I’ve used this for a while but it’s an extremely solid product. It’s entirely voice activated and unlike the other “free” 411 services this one does NOT have ads.
