Friday Night Links (1/1/2010)…
Anyone make a New Year’s resolution? I didn’t (or haven’t yet). If you did, let me know in the comments.
Please note that tomorrow is a palindrome day as the date in MMDDYYYY format will be 01022010. What a math nerd I am.
Now for the links:
- GoogleGoogleGoogleGoogle (http://thedig.in/8v) – It’s exactly what it sounds like: you can do four simultaneous Google searches on one screen. Why would you ever need this? “Well, huh, might as, might as well ask why is a tree good? Why is the sunset good? Why are boobs good?” And now you can use one of your four Google searches to find out what movie that quote was from.
- Speculative Prehistory of the iPhone (http://thedig.in/8w) – Ever wonder what everyone was saying about the iPhone before they knew there was an iPhone? Some got it dead on by suggesting touchscreen, gaming, and GPS. Others looked like big goofballs by suggesting that Apple and BlackBerry were teaming up for a device called the AppleBerry. Stop it. In a couple of years I plan on running a similar post to this with a link to the Speculative Prehistory of the iSlate. Or whatever the heck it ends up being called.
- What to Wear: Runners’ Edition (http://thedig.in/8x) – Mrs. Digitante got a heartrate monitor for Christmas and plans on running a four mile run for St. Patty’s Day. It’s always tough to tell what to wear, especially if you are a novice runner. Runner’s World has a tool for figuring out the best attire for whatever conditions you might face. I generally over-dress for my winter runs and end up peeling off a couple of layers and have to carry the stuff with me. I’ve learned my lesson and have planned for about 10 degrees warmer than I initially feel. I’ll have to check out this guide an see how it does at dressing me.
