THE DREAM IN ACTION

For those of you who are still Windows “die hards” (I can’t imagine why?) it will become harder and harder for you to stick to your guns. As Apple’s MobileMe makes people’s digital lives easier and easier to manage it will become increasingly impossible to ignore the superior UI that Apple is offering and are [...]

The pictures say 1000 words. For a play-by-play go to

chilirec is like TiVo for internet radio. You log in, choose your music that you want to record, and within about 5 minutes you have music that has been recorded for you off the internet. chilirec then stores the music in “your personal space” on the web and you can return to listen to it [...]

I’ve just added the MyBlogLog widget to ActionsTalk. Be sure to join the community so that you can know who else reads ActionsTalk and we can begin to connect.

I once again feel obligated to apologize for my post bashing the Twitter faithfuls. It is truly an awesome and affective web app! I am now fully on board and would encourage any of you who are not yet sold to try it again. It took me two tries to see how useful the tool [...]

Post compliments of BlakeSamic.comTwo new applications I’ve been impressed with are Piclens and Animoto. Piclens is a plugin for Firefox that lets you view photos on the web in a new, completely immersive way. Once you have it installed, it integrates with all the major photo sharing sites: Flickr, Facebook, Google Images, Smugmug, etc. With [...]

This is a project is a collaboration between the Interactive Media Division and the Institute for Creative Technologies at the University of Southern California. This video is yet another example of an awesome application of a mash-up of technologies. It will be fun to see the final product. “Viewfinder” is a novel method for users [...]

I’ve recently download the instant message aggregator Pidgin v2.4.1.  Here are a few findings: I like… With an impressive power of customization, Pidgin comes with all the good stuff provided by the former Gaim. The text-only version that they call Finch (birds…get it), the app allows you to chat with your buddies from a command [...]

This is 3 parts creepy and 5 parts amazing. This video puts a robot project by Boston Dynamics on display. I can guarantee that you will be impressed by this. Most especially by the ability of this robot to correct its near fall on the ice (half way through video). Again I apologize for all [...]

    The Nokia Research Center is working with the Cambriage Nanoscience Centre to develop nanoscience technologies that will bridge the latest and greatest in emerging technologies with the ability to benefit the end user. The idea behind this is (I know I say this a lot) absolutely market changing. This will change the word [...]

This video of a home made alarm clock found on Engadget is a brilliant example of finding a problem and building a solution. Exactly the type of thinking we like to promote. This video is… A really great idea This is taking the morning wake up to a whole new level. Far over my head [...]

My friends and I are always trying to think of completely new ways to do things. It’s tough. Sometimes it seems like new ideas are running out but companies like ManagedQ are proving that theory wrong. Thank God. ManagedQ has completely redesigned the search experience. They are currently using Google search results (with some hopes, [...]

Space Data Corp, a company out of Arizona is working on using hot air balloons to create wireless internet service. This service is focussed to provide internet to rural folks and truckers on the highways. This idea is slowly gaining an audience. Nobody in that audience is more welcomed than Google.

2 nights ago I played Guitar Hero for the first time and let me say, it is worth the hype. I know I’m a little behind the “gamer” trend here and I know that it has been out for a while. However, this game is FUN! I felt a little Asian because I was pretty [...]

I purchased the SCH-u740 (see image) two weeks ago and now have had some time to play with almost all the features it has to offer.  What makes the phone special at first glance is its 2 way flip feature. For normal phone calls it flips open vertically just like the Razor or any other [...]
