Social Media mistakes

I'm back

I had an email form a friend demanding a blog update and new years seems an appropriate time to do so (academic new year anyway)  My brain is currently mush due to the onset of classes.  Much like the onset of menopause, this time of the semester leaves me hot, cranky and unable to sleep properly!  So in lue of a proper post, let me share something wonderful I recently saw.

How awesome is this chair!  All your reading material right there all handy.  Add me a lamp, footrest and a cup of coffee and I am set for life.  And wouldn't this be great for thesis/dissertation writing.  All your sources right at hand.  Sadly, this is way out of my price range.  But a girl can dream

Now cats don't need opposable thumbs

They will no doubt soon complete their secret objective...to be the center of everything and have humans feed them treats by hand and sit around trying to get their attention to have the honor of petting them.  Oh... wait, I think they may have already acheived it.

Why else would Apple have put so much time and energy into designing a new cat toy.



There ability to use it with their little unthumbed paws finally explains the intial feline response to the new Apple device

Me wants!!!

This is a new computer cover available for the mac. So cool.  Me wants!!

TMI

TMI - Too much information - the phrase used to describe a situation when a friend has shared too intimate of information has become my new catchphrase.  But not about intimacy - about overabundance.  There is just too much information out there to manage.  I have already talked about the difficulty in keeping up with all of my techno communications options: twitter, blog, phone, IM, facebook, IMVU, meez and some others I have gotten so behind in that I have forgotten them.  But there is also an overload of information out there about stuff I am interested in. I have a pile of magazines and newsletters to read at home and then another at work, email in my inbox (email...I forgot about email in my previous list) with interesting articles forwarded to me, tweets of other articles, blog to be read...and all of it containing interesting information I don’t want to miss out on.  But there is just so much!  ... how many articles about the ipad do I need to read?  There should be a platform that lets you plug in all your articles and then whenever you added a new article, it tells you what new information is in that article.  That would be... (wait for it) … AWESOME

ipad humor

Okay for a funny but somewhat tasteless joke about the ipad - check out this MADTV video on youtube.  Keep in mind this was made several years ago, long before the latest ipad.

A little tech humor
