Toshiba Introduces Android Tablet -- InformationWeek -
My mother needs a new computer. But aside from e-mail, flash games, and Skype she doesn’t need much. Wondering if an Android tablet could do it. iPad is out, for the moment, as there is no camera.
Bits Pics: Kodak's 1975 Model Digital Camera - NYTimes.com -
It’s a shame they didn’t push this earlier. Maybe we’d have billion pixel cameras by now, although my 7MP camera does well enough for most things.
Radio, RIAA: mandatory FM radio in cell phones is the future -
This is unbelievable. In a way, I hope it passes. It would be one more reason to give up my US citizenship.
FOXNews.com - No Meeting Set on Mosque Despite Offer From New York Governor -
I just want to say what a complete crock this whole thing is. It makes me like America a little bit less. Did Muslims not die in the twin towers as well?

BBC News - Why do we all use Qwerty keyboards? -
I had read most of this in other places before, but it’s still interesting. I love typing, it sounds strange, but I do. I remember sitting next to my dad when I was 7 or 8 learning to type on my toy Buddy L typewriter. Thanks mom and dad! Anyway, there is a link at the bottom of the page to a Stephen Fry program on the QWERTY keyboard. I haven’t had a chance to listen yet, but I’m sure it’s excellent. You should be able to listen even if you don’t live in the UK (but don’t get any ideas about watching iPlayer content outside the UK, that is not allowed).
Hands on with Safari extensions | Browsers & Add-Ons | MacUser | Macworld -
I’m glad Safari is finally on the extensions bandwagon. Took them long enough. I might give it a go, but I’m generally a Chrome guy at home on my Mac. I’d use Chrome at work, but there is so much SharePoint rubbish, and the only browser that Microsoft lets play nice with SharePoint is IE.

Colo. gov. hopeful Maes says bike share threatens ‘personal freedoms’ - BostonHerald.com -
I’m all for resisting pressure from the UN or any government, but this guy is obviously insane. Now get on your bike. I do almost everyday to get to and from work and I love it.
