Free Range: Hash : The New Yorker
"The semiology and phenomenology of hashtaggery intrigues me."


An interesting article in The New Yorker... (do you know the magazine?)

Do you use hashtags like that?

See you all on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week.

The Home of the Mighty BOFH • The Register

The Home of the Mighty BOFH • The Register:

An example of early Internet humor (it began in 1992 on the Usenet!), still online on "the Register" site... (The Register's motto is "Biting the Hand that feeds IT!")

one of the recent posts:
"BOFH: We don't need no stinkin' upgrade"

(BTW: The PFY (Pimply-Faced Youth) is the Bastard Operator From Hell's assistant....)

Have a good week!

David Pogue Playlist - Video Library - The New York Times

David Pogue Playlist - Video Library - The New York Times

In grade school, when you're ten years old, "Show and Tell" is a common activity.... You bring something to class and talk about it.

Here's a "funny" David Pogue video about the iPhone 4S. Have a look in the technology videos on the NY Times site to find more. The one about the Google Wallet is good too....

What do you think? Is this funny? Please leave a comment.
Looking forward to seeing you all in March!
