I’m not on FaceBook, or any other social networking site. I’m just not a social creature. But for those of you who are, check out this article.
“Universal Chargers to Finally Become a Reality”
And in other “it’s about freakin’ time!” news… 😉
“I’m a sceptic now, says ex-NASA climate boss”
Global warming? Probably. Man-made global warming? It’s looking increasingly unlikely.
“Malware distributed by fake parking tickets”
You can’t help but admire the imagination of these malware writers. I doubt the approach will catch on though, it doesn’t scale and makes it a lot easier to pinpoint the culprit.
“Microsoft mojo deflated by Seinfeld Vista ads”
Could also be legitimately titled “what not to do in advertising.”
“Microsoft offers to just ‘Fix it'”
Um… didn’t they cause it in the first place? 😉
Seriously, it sounds like a good idea, in general. I have to wonder why they didn’t think of it before.
“Race To Witch Mountain”
On my recent vacation, I saw posters advertising an upcoming movie, “Race to Witch Mountain,” which turns out to be a remake of “Escape to Witch Mountain” (which I absolutely loved as a child, in both movie and book forms). Let’s hope they don’t screw it up too much.
Upgrade Trouble
If you noticed any problems with Geek Drivel’s configuration this morning, I apologize. I was trying to upgrade WordPress using the new “automatic upgrade” stuff for the first time, and had some permissions problems. It looks like everything’s fixed now though; we’ll see after the next release.
If you see any problems after this post appears, please let me know.
“Is the tech recession over?”
Some possible good news on the economic front.
“Babies Know: A Little Dirt Is Good for You”
I’ve been saying this for years, now I have the science to back it up. 🙂
