Click Here to Watch The Video: “For Someone Special, Or For Yourself, 23 Unusual Gifts” I’m not quite sure how to categorize this video. It’s definitely funny, yet you may find something here that you decide you have to have. It’s not a particularly good video technically, and it uses photos and Camtasia-like screen captures […]
Click Here to Watch The Video: “Google Features Lady Gaga In Chrome Browser Commercial” Speaking of Lady Gaga, have you seen the Google Chrome commercial that plays like a Lady Gaga music video? I’m not a Lady Gaga fan. I think her reliance on the costumes and props takes away from her significant talent. But […]
Click Here to Watch The Video: “Google Goes Social With The +1 Button For Web Sites.” Before there was Facebook, Twitter, ‘Social Bookmarking” and other social media sites, Google pioneered ‘Social Proof’ in the form of Page Rank.

Click Here to Watch The Video: “A Little Something For Everybody, 140 Chars At A Time. Twitter.” Texting has changed how we think, write and interact forever. Acronyms in place of words have become so common place, even techno-phobe seniors know what many of them mean. BFF, LOL, IMHO, TY, YW, OMG, TMI, BRB… Are […]
