So while EMI lays off employees, Peter Gabriel, always fascinated by using experimental tech in music applauds the ingenuity and courage of Pop Musicology Radiohead , and others search for additional ways to get music to the fans, and money to the artists.

Recycling Tech

Recycling Tech


Time Magazine has a nice article about companies launching buyback services for electronic gadgets. Another alternative to throwing the things away is TechForward a company interested in your used toys.... NEW Corp is planning to do something similar. Since their website does not work (!), here's a profile of the company from Business Week They work with huge chains such as Walmart and Best Buy, so the scope of their recycling could be vast.

And of course, there is always craigslist and ebay, a local school or senior center... someone, somewhere, can use what you no longer want or need...

Prozac for Pooches

The NY Times lists some of its favorites from the CES show, but, they seem focused mainly on metropolitan style, to my eye...

Amazon is being fined 1,000 Euros per day for refusing to change it's policy of free shipping to consumers who buy more than 20 euros of books ...
According to the International Herald Tribune “Nokia, the world's biggest maker of mobile phones, said Tuesday that it would close a factory in Germany and cut about 2,300 jobs as it shifted production to locations with lower costs.”

Applied Materials is also cutting jobs, about 1000.

But, maybe, jobs will be made up in the conservation of energy sector, Computer World... All of us have to do something about our energy footprint....


I don't know if you need some cheering up regarding the mixed messages on jobs, but....
if your dog accompnies you to work, and is looking depressed, you may find it reasurring that Eli Lilly Reuters has won FDA approval for Prozac for pooches

Digital Art

Digital Art

A magazine article caught my attention, PCMag, Didital Art for Beginners A lot of it, though, is a list of products to buy. So I looked around for something free....While Wikipedia has a nice article on the subject, no clear listing of free programs...

Needing a splash of inspriation I went to katiezzz's MSPaintArt

Back to the net where I found free trials of adobe photoshop here & other products can be found ...

dogwaffle is a free program I am playing with....

There are a lot of free programs at cnet, but trying to organize the search for digital art wasn't possible. But, over 36,000 programs, free, isn't bad

For a little inspiration you might look at Digital Art Org
& there's an interesting video at Youtube , using digital art. Enjoy....

Google & Kosmix, Something Old, Something New

September 12th 2007 18:47
I've said it before, but, then (when I said it) I didn't know about Kosmix. What I had said is: there are other options besides Google.

Google is great. But sometimes I get tons of pages that, no matter how I word my search, won't give me what I'm looking for

Fashion & Technology

April 29th 2007 18:53
Sorry to have been sidetracked from the blog by road trips, flu, a heat wave, and a puppy shredding my index fingers with stalactite teeth, whose demise I am promised will be followed by blunter adult teeth, used more appropriately.

Anina is an interesting tech blog from the fashion world (the link has a blurb on a wonderful looking upcoming Australian fashion show). Take a look, you might enjoy...

Crashing Computers and Internet Addiction

March 13th 2007 18:37
The International Herald Tribune reports "The Internet Addiction Treatment Center in Daxing County uses a blend of therapy and military drills to treat the children of China's nouveau riche addicted to online games, Internet pornography, cybersex and chats.

"I gradually became obsessed," said Li Yanlin, a university student whose grades plunged after he became addicted to Internet games. But after several weeks at the Daxing facility, the 18- year-old said he "recognized the falseness of online gaming."
