Okay, so you’ve heard from someone that this social media and social networking stuff is great and you should get involved, and it’s really going to help you out. Maybe it will help you in the economic downturn. Maybe you have heard how you can use Twitter for business. But there’s a lot to it all. Where would you start? What would come first? How might you think about getting out there and joining in ...

This is a great round-up of how to get started with an online persona via social networking from one of the most successful names in the arena. Even from someone who truly "gets it", looking back with their knowledge, a blog is a key first step.

If you'll recall, this service was actually announced for Australia earlier this month, but users in the US of A get the first chance to indulge. 'Course, this is far from the first unorthodox method of ordering pizza, and ...

Filed under: Misc. Gadgets If you've been waiting for that Minority Report-style interface to really come to fruition, you can finally exhale. One of the science advisors from the Steven Spielberg film -- along with a team of other zany visionaries -- has created an honest-to-goodness, real-world implementation of the computer systems seen in the movie. Dubbed g-speak, the mind bending OS combines "gestural i/o, recombinant networking, and real-world pixels," to deliver what the creators ...

the only part they got right was that 1984 has been (and still is) the most recent computer interface breakthrough (sad). i wish minority report never happened, it was like 50 steps backwards in the fight against the keyboard. these "technologically sexy" interfaces are only good for movies and demos... and it's just unfortunate the amount of impact those two things have on the people with the money. by the time this sort of thing is available, economical, feasible... and most importantly USABLE (and all that entails)... we'll already be using BCIs (THAT'S how far in the future it is). lockheed's doing a internal call for proposals for a non-geospatial military application for microsoft surface... what a waste of money.

Filed under: Transportation, Wireless Chrysler's in-car WiFi, Autonet Mobile, has been around for a little while now, and Walt Mossberg has helpfully reviewed it for us. He found the service (which is basically an in-car 3G WiFi router) to be great for email and basic web surfing, but it was too slow to handle anything much more demanding, like streaming videos. Speed test results ranged from 100 kbps to 500 kbps, with an average of ...

StudioSF has posted a long list of events commemorating the 40th Anniversary of Doug Engelbart's Mother of all Demos (video). I remember falling off my chair year's ago when I realized what Doug Engelbert had done at the end of the 60s. Let's not forget regarding computers this was punch card time. What he demoed in short: Monitor interface (almost graphical), mouse (the thing that most people associate him with), file concept, remote collaboration, video ...

If Bambuser's mobile live broadcasting app sounds familiar, it's because it's trying to unseat Qik. As one of the companies presenting at Wednesday's Under the Radar conference in Mountain View, CA, Bambuser is trying to convince investors and future partners to propel their business forward. Like Qik, Bambuser broadcasts the contents of your view finder from your mobile phone, which viewers can watch live online. Also like Qik, Bambuser viewers can chat with the filmmaker ...

They always say, don’t judge a book by it’s cover. But you do anyways. As humans, it’s difficult to separate what we see from what we think - it’s in our nature to use every incoming stimulus to interpret our environment, and then use that information in assessing and responding to a situation. Case in point: shopping has long been an exercise in ‘try before you buy’. You pick something up, turn it over on ...
