Chris Lentz, instead of going the classy route and getting a pair of truck nuts, decided to throw a Czech built Motorlet M-701 turbojet in the bed of his truck. The fifty-five-year-old electrical foreman from Jackson, Michigan, had longed for a jet-powered truck for decades. Two years ago, Lentz discovered a way to realize his dream when he met a pilot from New York who imported used turbojet engines. After watching an example run on ...

Image via CrunchBase Honestly, no one could be more surprised than I am about following in Robert Scobles footsteps. Back in August of last year I wrote a quick write up on how Robert got started in Social Media, blogging, and how he parlayed that into a viable career for himself. When Robert got started, blogs were still new technology, now we accept them as a day to day thing we read, visit, or do. ...

The overwhelming winner in my 30 day poll was “Bike to work” so that’s what I’m doing during the month of July. In the third week of July I’ll be out in Boston to speak at SIGIR, but any time I’m heading into the Googleplex during July, I’m planning to bike there. Is there something good for yourself that you’ve been meaning to do? Why not try it for 30 days this month? The month ...

You might not be drafting bomb instructions on the back of a cocktail napkin in a German bar anytime soon, but being skilled with invisible inks could definitely pay off. Photo by Kristen D. While you may remember invisible inks mainly from the back of comic books, wedged between X-ray specs and other questionable goods, it's probably the most legitimate "spy tool" around.

Don't get me wrong, I love Distant Shore, but Balloons! reminds me of being a kid and tying a message and photo to a balloon to send up into the stratosphere. Plus, you get a real sense of community. It's just plain fun to pick up a virtual ...

30 days is enough time to build a habit. Last month, I started trying to walk 10,000 steps a day for 30 days. I didn’t walk 10K steps every day, but I did keep at it until I’d walked over 10K steps for at least 30 days. In the process, I discovered that walking to the grocery store can be a relaxing way to unwind and get some exercise. I’m just now wrapping up an ...
