To close out the year, and hopefully put an end to the endless series of ‘question’ posts that I’ve had between Christmas and now, I thought I’d ask about what resolutions you have for the new year, that are specifically related to blogging.

2008 is still a couple of months away, but it’s fun to look ahead to movies releasing in the near future, especially those that you may not have heard of (yes, I am sure most of you heard about Cloverfield and Rambo). Granted, January and February a

Apparently this is the week for articles with "2008" in the title. With so many floating around I decided to pick just two to go on the 5 for Friday list—and they're good ones. I'd like to welcome Dustin Brewer to the list this week. His list of Digg-like social networks for designers is a great one and I've enjoyed his other posts as we

In Iowa, Mike Huckabee talked about eating horse meat. Now he's talking about frying up squirrels in a popcorn popper while in college. Huckabee made these comments on the show Morning Joe. In this blog post I poke fun at Huckabee for his strange eating habits.

When I first started setting goals, I did it with simple, old paper and pen. Later, I typed my goals into Word documents. After a few years, I moved on to goal setting/tracking software.

Goals management tools are really important to help us set goals and track them. With good tools to facilitate good goals, you’ll have a better chance of

It sounds so sexy and exciting, doesn't it? Watching the ball drop in Times Square has got to be one of the best ways of spending New Year's Eve. Well, not if you're not a teenager anymore. Not if you haven't loaded up on the kebabs and beer, and aren't really in a mood to scream your way into the new year, just to keep yourself warm, al

Remember in 90's, there were Zip Drives considered cool, as they can hold a lot more data then normal floppy disks. Soon the CD-R comes in with huge storage facility and Zip is gone.
Now Iomega is taking Zip Drives back in market, but they going to call it Rev, it is a HDD split in half - the head and mechanisms are in the reader, and in ea

Every Presidential candidate is out there trying to buy your vote. This statement may not go over very well in conservative circles, after all, this is an accusation commonly hurled at Democrats, but it also fits the Republican framework as well. Th

Will there be a Soundgarden reunion in 2008? No. Hits had posted a rumor back on November 1 but anything of the sort is totally unlikely to come to fruition. There are just too many documented indicators that point to the fact that this is an imposs

The Washington Times had an interesting editorial about how US history is no longer being taught in our nation's schools. This wasn't news to me and this editorial reminded me once again why the next election is so important. International standards are invading our schools, global citizenship is replacing national citizenship and common mo

Will Barack Obama throw the 2008 Presidential race to the Republicans? Will his Muslim roots matter? What about his inexperience? Will Democrats once again be split? Jane Devin asks the questions and points out that Obama may be the next Ralph Nader. What do you think? Will Obama's good looks, charm, and charisma be enough to overcome t

Every character is given equal screentime and is developed in a very effective manner. The flashbacks are very apt and is very understandable even if one hasn’t watched the TV series. The movie has the same style as the City of God but

They get most of their economic data from sources like our government, the same government that was extremely sure about WMD in Iraq. Of course, they would be the last ones to feel the money pinch.

This week boasts a surprising number of great blog articles despite an expected lull over the Christmas holiday. Several of my favorite bloggers took the whole week off but a few never skipped a beat. In the next few days we will be barraged with "best of 2007" TV shows and magazine articles so I thought it appropriate to include at least o

Even though Obama may not be the most experienced candidate (this is not and endorsement for Obama or Hillary, I'm still undecided), his look, posture, demeanor are displaying belief that he can win.

Obama has become Obamassiah.
