Apple Tablet A Long Time Apple Idea

Posted by ryan as Apple, Design, Designer, Technology

Wired’s Gadget section has a report on Apple’s never to market tablet from 1983 as developed by Frog Design. The rumors about the tablet have been around forever, I just never had a clue that the idea was on the table for as long as it has been for Apple. After seeing this it really makes predicting Apple’s release of the so called iSlate / iTablet / iPad even easier. I can’t wait to see what they unveil this coming Wednesday, January 27th.

What Is A Browser?

Posted by ryan as Interweb, Technology, Web Devlopment

It both amazes me on some levels that people don’t know what a browser is, and on the other hand makes perfect sense. It really explains why the education process for my job with clients is so crucial. For the record, this is hosted by Google and they love it when people do not know the difference between a search engine and a browser. What a great opportunity for them to capitalize on the the general public’s’ ignorance and get them using their browser Chrome. Which coincidentally is based off of webkit, the open source browser being developed by many people including Apple who use if for their browser Safari.  In my opinion though the best browser out there and one that supports the latest in web standards and allows for serious customization, Firefox.

Google Leaving The Censorship Business

Posted by ryan as Interweb, News, Serious Nod, Technology, War on the Internet

I’ve recently read that Google has made the decision to no longer censor google.cn. They also plan to leave the country and kill the domain if needed. That is if they can not operate under China’s conditions and laws. I applaud this as helping any government to censor information is ridiculous for any American company. Read about their decision from Google’s blog.

Impromtu Love

Posted by ryan as Fun & Games, Inspiring, Interweb, Music

I absolutely love the Impomptu shows that Current.tv and La Blogotheque are doing together. They follow an artist into a public setting and film a sort of raw music video. The reactions of onlookers are genuine and how awesome would it be to present at one of these live jams.
