[Computer Alchemy] HOW-TO: Make a geeky USB fan: As I was pondering my next HOWTO while roadtripping, a few things crossed my mind. Then I came back, got the flu, andapproached near-death with the hot temperatures here in Philadelphia. So I got to thinking: “How can I keep the cooldown….GEEK STYLE?” My question was easily answered after digging through a box of junk for 10 minutes.

[Desktops.engadget.com] HOW-TO: Make a geeky USB fan - Desktops - desktops.engadget.com: You people really get worked up over nothing. Sure, it is probably a health and safety hazard as well as an opportunity to short out your usb port, but there's not much point whining about it. Whoever runs this site is just trying to keep you all interested and a single article won't appeal to everyone. It is unfortunate that people flame cetrain articles that arent so great because it doesnt help the writer's motivation to submit a article next time.

[Chocnvodka.blogware.com] Chocolate and Vodka :: Main Page: Then there is the issue of what insights dreams may provide into cognitive problems. This morning I also dreamt of a wonderful model for explaining the cultural change lifecycle in business - complete with a diagram with four quadrants, (for some reason there were pictures of humans, monkeys, chimps and apes in the background of each quadrant), and four conditions that had to be satisfied to progress to the next quadrant. I wish I could remember what those conditions were, because in the dream it all made perfect sense. Unfortunately, I have a very visual memory, but am crap at remembering facts, words, numbers or names.

[Vincemease.com] vincemease.com/: 300,000 people still went to see the Thunder fireworks. Either I'm not a very good friend and fan, or those people are just crazy. Fireworks in the rain, cold, and wind doesn't sound fun. Avery sure did dig all the planes flying over the apartment on their way into the air show though.

[Wait4it.blogspot.com] Wait-4-It: March 2005: The extraordinary security measures are evidence of the risks involved in providing differential access about flaws that in some cases could allow hackers to take control of computer systems. If information about a new vulnerability leaks before a patch is generally available, unpatched customers could be at even greater risk of attacks by virus-writers or malicious hackers.

[Tuaw.com] The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW): If you're a long time OS X user, then you are probably overly familiar with one of the best resources for tinkering around in OS X, Mac OS X Hints. Well, Rob Griffiths, the founder of Mac OS X Hints, announced yesterday that rather than dilute "the primary site's focus, I've decided to launched a separate blog site, just so I can drill down into the Mac- and technology-related subjects I find interesting." He's started up his own blog, featuring his opinions on all things Macintosh: The Robservatory.
