That seems interesting

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Pulled from Doc Searls today, is his writing about his son, Allen, who is working on a project called GlobeAlive. From Doc’s description:

“It’s basically a ‘live’ search engine: one that finds human beings who might be available to answer questions in real time.”

Read Doc’s “interview” with his son, check out the website and read more about it on Allen’s blog. It seems like a very interesting idea, one that I intend to at least keep an eye on.

    I installed the new Google Toolbar yesterday on my work machine. I have made a somewhat half-hearted attempt to use IE a bit more than usual, but not a whole lot more since then, just to see how many popups it blocks. As of 1:30 this afternoon the count is 42. So I wonder, exactly…

    Has anybody else using Windows Live Writer to post to their blog noticed occasional slowdowns? Like when it’s autosaving a draft, and you’re typing, the program doesn’t keep up with you, and then fills in behind with what you had been typing once it recovers? For someone like me, who doesn’t type real well, it…

    Sundays are good, after being up until 3AM learning and playing with some Visual Basic stuff, my wife brought me some breakfast in bad around 10, and then let me go back to sleep for a little while. Excellent! Eventually we did make it out of the house for a trip down to the used…

  • Patching catch 22

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    Prime example last week of why patching is sometimes a whole lot more complicated than it seems to be from the outside. Tuesday was patch day. For many of us in the Eastern Time Zone, who set Automatic Updates to pick up patches overnight, it’s really Wednesday for all intents and purposes. So Weds. would…
