By Jeff, on August 25th, 2009 When I went to college, I hung out with a bunch of music majors. I also hung out with a bunch of geeks. Sometimes those were the same people. I remember one party where a bunch of these people tuned their beer bottles to different notes and gathered into a ‘beer choir’ to play ‘Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star’ (at least I think that’s what it was).

By Jeff, on August 18th, 2009 Other heroes may be dark, brooding and intelligent, or invincible super-nice guys, but no one is as fun to watch as Spider-Man.

By Jeff, on August 8th, 2009 I wanted to follow up on a couple of posts I made (long ago) about web conferencing. Figured it was about time I got back to it.
I had the occasion to use two services last night: Vyew, and DimDim. I’ll summarize my experiences below.
This was the first time I’d tried Vyew. It’s a Flash-based service so there is no software to install (unless you want to share your desktop, which requires a Java . . . → Read More: Free web conferencing – ups and downs

I’m looking forward to seeing the whole thing.
Not as much as I’m looking forward to the live action movie, though. But my excitement is a little tempered by news of who landed the role of Hal Jordan: . . . → Read More: Green Lantern: First Flight (and other Green Lantern news) – Tuesday TubeWatch
