The Virtual Webtop – A different type of experience
The Term Webtop has been a long time, but has been a fledgeling technology that has failed to take off. The reality is the technology wasn’t ready. In my honest opinion, the original creators had the right idea, but they got the whole concept wrong. So here’s where I’ve come to think about it on…
What happened to “Human” in Humanity?
I really do need to ask this question. I appreciate my followers and yes, they’re a loyal bunch. I do need to EVERYBODY one question and everyone on the Internet. We all go about our lives. We see the homeless person at the exit ramp, on the sidewalk, etc. Granted a lot of them are…

Smartphone Bloatware, the New Malware.
I like my smartphone. I use a Galaxy S II vs. the Galaxy S III. Why? I didn’t want to pay the $200.00 overhead for a phone that will be worth $300.00 less in 6 months. This doesn’t mean I don’t get the performance I need. All the carriers (T-Mobile, ATT, Verizon, Vodacom, Virgin, etc.)…
