I've been a YouTubeTV subscriber for about 2 years. When I cut the cord 4 years ago I signed up with SlingTV, but then switched a couple years later when I saw that YouTube carried my local network stations. That was huge for me because for whatever reason I am

Last spring I finally cut the cord. It's something I had blogged about before, and while it's not all rainbows and unicorns, the cost savings has been worth it. If you've heard about it and are interested in what's involved, maybe this will help you decide if it's worth it

Amazing talk by Chris Urmson of Google talking about their driverless car program.

I've been on Twitter since 2009, and while I like using it more than Facebook, it's not perfect by any stretch. Dustin Curtis perfectly outlines the problems Twitter has and how to fix them.

It's been a little over 1.5 years since I last updated the design of my site and I recently got the itch. So over the course of 3 or 4 nights last week I coded a new paint job for this site. I call it SpringClean. I wanted something

I'm a sucker for new tech, so when I read the announcement that Google had released a new product called Keep, I immediately checked it out. Keep is essentially sticky notes on mild steroids -- a place to aggregate the thoughts and tasks that pop up during the day. I

This totally appeals to the computer geek in me -- a look behind the curtains at Google datacenters -- but even still these datacenters are a technological marvel and show what it takes to provide services to the millions of people around the world who use them.

Mike Masnick over at TechDirt wrote an article picking apart the difference between a terrible defendant and an even worse punishment, something he feels the judges in the case failed to do themselves. It's worth the read, even if you disagree with the ethics of file sharing.
