TED Talk: How Algorithms Shape Our World
Published 1 year, 8 months ago in Cool Computer Stuff and Technology. 0 CommentsSo yeah, I’m a monitor junkie. As if it’s not bad enough that I work with 3 monitors, I recently got the Dell 3008WFP 30″ monitor.

Laptop goodness continues on a flight from Salt Lake City UT, to Burbank, CA. I feel like a kid in a candy store. I find myself wondering why I waited so long to get a laptop in the first place. Being that computers are such a part of my life now, it makes sense that [...]
Ok, I gotta say this is the coolest thing in the world. As I write this I am flying down the highway, a passenger on a trip from Elko, NV to Minden, NV to attend the wedding of Regina and her future husband. It’s about a 5 1/2 hour drive, and these road trips used [...]
