If this is the path our world is headed, I guess I should refresh my understanding.

notes and stuff
Hey kids, just dropping in to blog and dash. I finished up my work in D.C. and now I'm headed off to ESPAŅA! So in case you start sending your nasty grams, I'll be out of the country so there! Of course, you'll get the recap when I get back... maybe. You could always go over last year's trip And the pics too! Though, I still have yet to put up last year's. Hrm. Guess I might need to do that too. Anyway, maybe if you're nice, I'll send a postcard! In the mean time, here's some stuff.

Google notebook. Holy crap this thing is awesome! Now I've got an easier way to collect and organize my notes and links when shopping or researching online. Simple, quick and easy. Love Google! Well for now anyway. I still think, despite all their coolness, they are really amassing a huge database of human knowledge and experience to be used for the likes of playing God. I mean think about it, what if you had the knowledge of all human existance right down the minute email between two people stored, indexed and searchable. That's right, God. Under the guise of cool, simple apps, I think Google is on it's way to some wicked data mining capabilities that will be down right creepy. Paranoid? Yeah maybe, but if you had such knowledge at your finger tips, wouldn't you be curious about what information you could glean? Yeah.

Oh and if you're bored and want to relive an Internet meme from back in the day, check out this ridiculousness. If it's new to you, you're an intarweb noob. If not, it might just give you a headache. Otherwise, hilarity will ensure.

All right yos! I'm out, it's Spain or bust! Awesome.
