    As we shamble forward into the next decade, it might be prudent to take pause and take stock of the years behind us. Translation: Back up your stuff. .. We have a ton of information, photos and memories scattered around the web that we would be loathe to lose .. it still might be wise to put some of that stuff in an iron box for safe keeping."

    Some good advice about how to backup various online web tools.

Wake Up, Geek Culture. Time to Die | Magazine - 2 views

  •  
    "In Japan, the word otaku refers to people who have obsessive, minute interests-especially stuff like anime or videogames. It comes from a term for "someone else's house"-otaku live in their own, enclosed worlds. Or, at least, their lives follow patterns that are well outside the norm. Looking back, we were American otakus. "

    Interesting to think about how Geek culture has changed over the past three decades.

    "We've been getting a lot of questions ever since our GMAT Choose Your Own Adventure video went up. Well, one question, really: How can I make one for my students? Answer: It's easy! Youtube has a great tool called Spotlight that lets you make any video interactive. It's really handy for lessons and quizzes. Essentially, you can ask students a question - or a series of questions - and when they answer show them a personalized video response according to how they did."

RIP Flip Video Camera - 7 views

  • It looks like the Flip was simply an intermediary product. Much like the netbook, which has been largely usurped by lower-cost full laptops and tablets like the iPad, the Flip was simply a product that disrupted markets before moving aside for a true successor.
  •  
    The popular Flip video camera is no more, with Cisco announcing Tuesday it "will exit aspects of its consumer businesses," which includes shutting down the Flip.
  •  
    Interesting to consider that the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad2 with built in cameras might have also nudged the Flipvideo camera aside.

Windows 7 tablets | Leader Slate 12 Windows 7 tablet | ExoPC - 0 views

  •  
    "The biggest downside to Windows 7 on tablets is that Microsoft has failed to offer a specialised tablet user-interface. This is a huge oversight as Microsoft was first to push tablets over a decade ago but has completely failed to make an impact on the new generation tablet market pioneered by Apple and Google."

iPhone 4S « The New Adventures of Stephen Fry - 9 views

  •  
    Once again Apple is taking a lead and asking a lot of its competitors. I wish those competitors luck, for the better all smartphones are, the happier I am. If Steve Jobs's true legacy is that the devices every other company makes are so, so much better than they otherwise would have been, I don't think he would mind one bit.
