The Chase For Peyton

Sat, 10 Mar 2012 15:00:39 GMT

Any team that signs Peyton is taking a risk. While everyone is focusing on his past success with the Colts, they seem to be overlooking the fact that he hasn't played for more than year due to that neck injury. Is Peyton durable enough to make it through a season?

So far I am not reading much of what people expect the next iPad will have that is compelling. I have a first generation iPad and the iPad 2 didn't add enough to warrant my buying one.

Eagle Time!

Wed, 22 Feb 2012 16:52:09 GMT

There is something hypnotic yet relaxing about having the Decorah Eagles running in the background on my computer, although the commercials that Ustream drops in are jarring. Mom and dad are currently incubating two eggs.

New URL points to GDrive Beta?

Wed, 22 Feb 2012 13:21:55 GMT

The Google Drive yet another tech unicorn. Google already provides cloud storage via Google Docs, yet most people expect that some time soon they will provide a cloud storage service similar to Dropbox. If Google does provide such storage I am interested to see how it integrates with Android.

Tue, 21 Feb 2012 14:29:18 GMT

If I write something in Radio2 that exceeds 140 characters does it not go to Twitter?
