Presence Consumers and Presence Producers: Skype lights vs. Wakoopa's software life stream
Tue, 08 Apr 2008 23:14:19 PDT
Some devices consume presence. For example, here's "a DIY instant messenger online contact signalizer picture frame thingy" made by David Bue Pedersen. As you can see from the photo, snapshots of David's friends light up when they are online. In this case, Skype aggregates presence data from multiple contacts.

One Bag At A Time
Tue, 08 Apr 2008 23:53:20 PDT
I heard this thingy on NPR yesterday about stores that will no longer offer plastic bags as of this year (Whole Foods, IKEA) and what manufacturers are doing to keep up with the "green is the new black" trend among, well, everyone. They're producing degradable plastic bags, which is exactly what I picked up the last time I needed trash bags but wanted to stop using the Glad ones I'd been buying for years. The story goes on to debate whether or not these degradable bags are safe for the enviro
What Getting Things Done Has Taught Me
Tue, 08 Apr 2008 23:57:50 PDT
I’ve been living with Getting Things Done for close to 18 months now. At the risk of sounding overly enthusiastic or, heaven forbid, evangelistic, I would encourage everyone to read the book, especially anyone in ministry (why, why weren’t these topics covered in depth at theological college?), or anyone with a modular, creative, or information-based career.

I love listen to the radio and I was listening to a very interesting interview yesterday about the television and it’s future in (this case) danish homes. The tendecy is little home theatres. Out goes the old home alter and in comes home theater chairs, high definition flat screen televisions - in several rooms such as the bedroom, livingroom and of course? - kitchen! I must admit I wouldn’t mind to have our television replaced with a flat screen tv instead of the big chunk we have now taking

Drat. We get Charlie Rose’s program late here — generally after midnight. I’m up to my ears with charitable organization duties (”Just Say No!”), work where I came in midstream, family health issues, and other typical aggravations of trying live a well-examined life.
