I'm getting lots of hits for my Facebook related writings (especially my recent post on whether Facebook was replacing e-mail) so why not add to the chatter some more? So, to follow-up on the last two lists like this, here are yet five more ways I'd improve Facebook (post-apps version.) (Oh, and if you haven't […]
I didn't participate in the co-op program at FIMS for a variety of reasons: 1) I only wanted to be out of the workforce for a year so going straight through doing the “Suicide Five” was pretty much my only option 2) being older and a bit more established, I was able to access a […]
The title says it all. (Also I’m in a bit of a pinch for time this week as I’m heading to a lake soon and will be sans Internet for a day or two.)
Can anybody with better Google-fu than I find a web page/study/chart listing internet usage by profession/occupation? I've just done some quick searching with Google but haven't turned up anything.

Received this link from Chris G. with a request for any thoughts I might have on what makes a bestselling book. Coincidentally, this weekend I also happened to read a column by Stephen King in an issue of Entertainment Weekly exploring the same issue. And it also makes a nice follow-up to my last FFL […]
I just came across this image of one of the world's most popular (and longest) books where the main character's fate is being hotly debated today. Does he die? Or does he live? Don't say I didn't warn you!
This song's been going through my head a lot since Pace was born: And I'm broke, like a bad joke Somebody's uncle told at a wedding reception in 1972 Where a little boy under a table with cake in his hair Stared at the grown-up feet as they danced and swayed And his father laughed […]
