Aston Martin Cygnet

Aston Martin is building a new mini-luxury car called the Cygnet. I would love to have one but it doesn't look like they are coming to the United States

Space - The Final Frontier

Ever go on a trip and get frustrated when you don't have an Internet connection? NASA is now testing the use of the Internet in space. And if you think that your connection is slow. The best response time from Earth to Mars is 8 minutes.

Google Chrome OS

This is way bigger news than Google dropping the beta label from mail, calendar, docs and talk yesterday. Google is developing an open-source operating system which will release later this year.

Sundar Pichai, VP Product Management, say that "speed, simplicity and security are the key aspects of Google Chrome OS." In addition, it will work seamlessly with Android.

This could represent another paradigm shift in computing!

Nokia Going Android?

This news could be the biggest news that no one is hearing over the holiday weekend. Nokia, the largest handset maker, announced that they could have an Android device available by September. The Symbian Foundation just isn't garnering any support. Nokia joining the Open Handset Alliance is a big deal!

An American Vehicle Worth Considering

This is a vehicle that might make people interested in buying American cars once again.

Awesome Headphones

I finally bit the bullet and ordered a pair of custom in-ear monitors from JH Audio. Jerry Harvey was kind enough to agree to make me a pair. Jerry practically invented the in-ear monitor. He is the founder of Ultimate Ears which he sold a year or so ago. His new company has a few customers that you might have heard of including Aerosmith, The Rolling Stones, and Metallica to list a few.

I can hardly wait for these babies to arrive!

Herman Miller Embody

I broke down and bought a new office chair today. The new Herman Miller Embody is the follow-up to the huge success known as the Aeron chair. The designers, Bill Stumpf and Jeff Weber, are the same designers that developed the Aeron chair. They spent 10 years studying the pros and cons of the Aeron chair in order to make an even better chair. In fact, after using the Embody, the Aeron is like sitting on a milk crate. Not really but I need to justify spending this much on a chair :-)

PS. I bought a black Embody chair. The yellow fabric is a stock photo and was the chair that was sent to reviewers.
