iPhone you phone we all phone for iPhone. This is a typical lunch at work. After everyone is done eating, the phones come out.

I however pull out the G1 Google Android phone.

I have had little links hanging out in my sidebar for some time now. I thought that maybe I could earn a couple of bucks to help pay for the site. The way Google AdSense works is it assigns a monetary amount to the links based on how many page views you have vs. how many times the links were clicked vs. a bunch of other analytical data that only Google knows about. When you reach $100 worth of hits, they send you the check.

So far I have $15 worth of AdSense money earned. At this rate, I should get my first $100 check in about 5 years. Maybe I should take the ads down.

My Google Chrome browser crashed due to political reasons. It did not like Palin criticizing Biden.

Simon‘s a computer, Simon has a brain, you either do what Simon says or else go down the drain. The game unit has four large buttons, one each of the colors red, blue, green, and yellow. The unit lights these buttons in a sequence, playing a tone for each button; the player must press the buttons in the same sequence. Play Simon.

Google Chrome is a free and open-source web browser developed by Google. It’s primary design goals were improvements in security, speed and stability compared to existing browsers. Chrome was assembled from 26 different code libraries from Google and others from third parties such as Netscape. Download Google Chrome.

Here is what happens when I don’t delete my spam over the course of a week and a half:

Cloud Computing:
To deliver supercomputing power over the Internet. – businessweek

The idea of relying on Web-based applications and storing data in the “cloud” of the Internet – technology review.

A network of services and connections that exist on the Internet – ars technica.

A term used to describe massively scalable computing that is made available to end users over Internet Protocol or other access method (i.e. “as a Service”) – wiki

I dont know if this is the future of computers as we know them today but it could be. I know this idea is not new. I remember the dummy terminials my dad worked on in the 80′s that were all connected to a mainframe somewhere else in the building. You could log into any computer on the network and all of your data and files are right there just as you left them.

Imagine this on a grand modern scale and the internet is your network. It seems to me to be a bit inefficient for everyone to have their own powerful computer, need to purchase and update software for every machine, apply software updates to every machine… Why not spend less money and resources on terminal machines and have your entire computer available to you from anywhere there is a terminal machine? Your work, your friends house, the library, the bus stop… why not?

Why stop at just having terminal machines? It seems that the computer industry is fully merging with the cell phone industry. I’m sure in a few years most phones and computers will only differ in the size they come in.

This idea will not work with the current technology we have today, but there are several applications and companies that are moving in this direction. Microsoft has released online software called Windows Live for its popular hotmail, photo-sharing, file storage, and other applications served from new data centers. Google has Google Apps with the very popular gmail and google calendar and some other good ones. Of course there is also Yahoo and IBM developing in this direction.

A very cool new one I also recommend is Photoshop Express. It is a free simple version of Photoshop that you dont even have to download. You use it right in the browser. It is similar to the Flickr photo editor called Picnik.

So try these out:

I was walking down the street today near my house and saw a car that may have been taking street level photos. It was an older car with a white pole sticking out of the roof. The top of the pole was painted red with several lenses all the way around it.

I am not saying it was the Google Maps street level car, but who knows… maybe I will be one of the people in one of the photos.

I dont know where these comments are coming from, nor do I know how this post is being found… but check it out:
