Google is one of just a very small few companies that really understand the future and where things are heading. Its execution can sometimes be clunky but it sees the position it can be in more than anyone. What’s fascinating is that there is this sort of fan mentality about the company. It quietly slips into so many sneaky little positions as so many cheer it on. It’ll be...

The First Date
theessentialman:
Tonight I went on a first date, something I haven’t done in a while.
I had just spent the past 20 minutes writing a post about my opinions on how to navigate through a first date and how great this one was, only to delete it.
Do you know how telling someone a funny story that you witnessed usually ends in a half-cocked smile and you protesting, “You had to be there.”?
Well,...

Ever since Paranormal Activity I check the clock when I wake up in the middle of the night. Last night I got up at 3:17am, and both my dogs ran out of the room. I decided it was best to hold my pee until morning…

An opportunity
superamit:
Buying things is too hard. Much of the time, I want to buy something to solve a problem, and I want it to be good. It doesn’t need to be the cheapest or even the best money can buy, just a very good, reliable, solution.
But in markets where there are many product offerings, the research required to find that solution requires a ton of time — time that’s wildly disproportionate to the...

Oh yeah, about that Vimeo thing. Putting big-label music in a video is copyright infringement. It sucks, but that’s the way it is.
