Sunday, October 9th, 2005

The Presurfer in his usual fashion is always coming across interesting things. Today I read about The Inquisitor, an instant search application that will retrieve web results and present alternative suggestions as-you-type in the search bar. Just in case Google isn’t fast enough for you, the developer David Watanbe states:

Treo Trauma

Monday, October 3rd, 2005

I hate to say it, but I dropped my Treo 650 after only 4 months of use and have cracked my LCD display, its wiped out. I was taking it out of my case to make a call and it slipped out of my hand, boom done. Now the kicker, when I purchased the Treo […]

Print Media, Ad Agencies & Google

Saturday, September 3rd, 2005

Google isn’t a media company… yet. But I have to admit, I have always said that Google is headed in that direction. It never will look like a media company by todays standards, that I know. However, there is rapid evolution in their model, and sometimes those evolutions get them pretty close to the media […]

Just What I Need! More IM: Google Talk

Wednesday, August 24th, 2005

I downloaded Google Talk this morning, and yes while the title of my post is a bit sarcastic, there is a bit of truth in it. I am what you can classify as an IM junkie. I use Trillian to manage my AOL IM, Yahoo IM and MSN messenger accounts. I use all three services […]
