Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I am curious too! I don't know what the implications of this are. I am waiting for a tech column to cover this in depth. When I find one, I'll link it here.

Sounds to me like most of the video on the internet that will be geared toward mobile devices will be converted to html5 - which is what youtube did years ago.

Thanks, le nub! I am trying to be More Tech Geeky. It's very satisfying.

I think you're right and Flash will slowly fade away.

I would like Flash to die, die, die, except that will make me learn HTML 5. Sometimes my brain gets tired.

Sometimes my brain gets tired.

But I have your brain! I've only been proofreading so far today, so it's not that tired.

YET.

Could you teach it HTML 5 while you have it?

I'm too busy trying to get it to remember factoids about glomerulonephritis.

It's pretty good at remembering things like that.

I know! The proofreading has been a breeze!

Hey. New board.

I can use my tablet as a phone on Wifi with a Google voice phone number

What app do you use to do this? On my old iPhone I used Talkatone (which is essentially a Google Talk app that will connect with its voice service) but I haven't found something similar for android...
