Pretty good week for Google

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Does anyone else remember seeing so many little, yet very useful, announcements being made by one company the way Google made them in the last half of this week?

Can’t say that I accomplished that much this week, can you? 🙂

    One other thing before I go back to installing software. Email to this domain seems to be slow, at best. That might make it seem like I’m being slow, and well, I am, but not as slow as this makes me look! *L* Follow these topics: Uncategorized

    Linked – Using Law Against Technology

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    “It’s one aspect of a tech policy problem that has been plaguing us for at least 25 years: technologists and policymakers don’t understand each other, and they inflict damage on society because of that.
