Add another one to the queue

http://www.wired.com/underwire/2010/05/lost-in-translation-re-write-the-series-finale/ When you open this link, there is an image from the final episode. I tried to close my eyes as fast as I could, but I glimpsed it!! I promise that in one week from now I will have seen the last two episodes and I’ll stop with the obsessive Lost stuff. Hopefully.

I’m spamming my blog with Lost articles

http://www.wired.com/techbiz/people/magazine/17-05/mf_jjessay One more episode to go! Which means one more episode until I stop posting Lost articles & I will just read them right away :)

Forgive me, I love LOST

Please forgive me because I keep posting these links to articles about Lost. I’ll be honest. I’m a complete, freakly fanatic about Lost. And there are only a two episodes left for me to watch (only one left to air). And I’m so worried that every possible article may spoil things for me, I don’t [...]

Results are in, and I’m a fogie

“Only Old Fogies Hate the New Facebook, Research Suggests“, from Wired.com I always thought that graduating from college essentially equals “old.” Apparently, finishing grad school equals “fogie.” Not really. At least the article doesn’t say that. But I am DEFINITELY not 35 (see above article), roughly a decade younger (more or less than a decade [...]

If you didn’t believe me, maybe now…

If you didn’t believe me when I said that Facebook sucks your life away, maybe now you will. Wired.com reports that Facebook CEO apparently “doesn’t believe in privacy” in this article: http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2010/04/report-facebook-ceo-mark-zuckerberg-doesnt-believe-in-privacy/ I really enjoyed the article; particularly the reflections on Facebook’s recent attempt to take over the web with the new “Like” button.

For obsessed LOST fans

For the obsessed Lost fans, like myself, one can never get enough inside scoop on the crazy occurrences in the plot line of Lost. Wired.com has an inside story with the creators of Lost, http://www.wired.com/magazine/2010/04/ff_lost. Unfortunately, I’m a few episodes behind and I’m too paranoid to read the article before getting all the way caught [...]

“death by PowerPoint”

I couldn’t resist. Check out this article about “death by PowerPoint” in NYT. It reminds of all my all hours-long turned to day-long struggles with PowerPoint in grad school. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/27/world/27powerpoint.html It is baffling to see how many of our top military and political leaders spend creating or watching PowerPoint presentations. And I thought my stint [...]

Dig out those old floppy disks and release your inner artist

If you’re sitting around wondering, “what should I do this all these old floppy disks?”, take a cue from London artist Nick Gentry. Gentry has used old floppy disks as a component of his mixed media art. The floppy disks serve as a canvas for spray paint and oil paint. Small pieces use about six [...]

Netflix streaming now on all major gaming systems

Wii now has access to all of Netflix’s Instant Watch movies. From what I’ve read at Wired.com, Wii users will use the same process as PS3 users. If you already have a Netflix account, request the Netflix Streaming DVD at Netflix.com for your particular gaming system and then you’re ready to watch all the Instant [...]

National ID deadline pushed back another year

I just found out that the Department of Homeland Security delayed National ID Cards (Real ID program) for another year. The deadline was Dec. 31 for state compliance and according to Wired.com, about half the states oppose or refuse to comply with the mandate. This makes me happy because I lean towards the crazy ramblings [...]
