Oh, I think the iPad will do well, I just don't think it's the next iPhone or iPod. Primarily because of the iPhone and iPod.
Buffistechnology 3: "Press Some Buttons, See What Happens."
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Thanks, o_a. I'll take a look later and see if I can use Component. I think the tv may have that option.
You can now completely disable Google Buzz in one click if you want. Too late for some people, but I'm glad I held off trying to undo all their stupid automatic stuff manually.
Do we know if that will kill your follows/following in Google Reader? Cause that I actually want to continue to use.
Seriously, I only hit that once.
It looks like it might. Google made a classic mistake and combined too many things that should have been kept separate, it seems.
The button deleted your profile and removes all followers completely.
Oh Google. Way to make a classic blunder.
(They'll probably do much better in that land war in Asia...)
I found this PDF very interesting:
Hardware: Looking Back From the 1980s At Computers In Education
"As someone who went to high school in the '80s, this newsletter from 1980 (PDF) is a blast from the past. An interview with Microsoft talks up its BASIC language product and predicts voice control of computers in five years. Advertisements for Compute magazine, which was about to go monthly, and an article about a computer 'network' in Minnesota that connects some fax machine-looking terminal to a central computer over telephone lines. Lots of Atari, TI and RadioShack news too. It's a reminder from 30 years ago that we are still not using technology effectively in education."
Ah MECC, I recall it well...Well, I recall it.
It's kind of disconcerting seeing a newsletter you remember clearly as being white is not only now digital, but yellowed with age before archiving.
