If there is anyone that has felt the success of YouTube, it’s Keenan Cahill. This 17 year old has been lip-syncing songs for 4 years. His videos are seen by millions ever since he covered Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream”. Of course, growing up as Keenan hasn’t been the best. Suffering from a genetic disorder called […]
Rebecca Levey from KidzVuz joined the TPN CES Live show to talk about Kidzvuz. This is a safe environment for eight to ten year olds. Rebecca was a mommy blogger.

After some discussion with several sources, earlier in the week I decided to re-instate geekazine on YouTube and on Friday, officially switched over to www.youtube.com/geekazine. The (now) old YouTube channel was a channel I used long before Geekazine was a thought in my mind. However, with stepping up the game, I need to make sure […]
Episode 5 of the OTT gets us the news we are officially on iTunes. Add us (link below). We also got our first viewer mail. It’s from Dr. Bill, the computer curmudgeon. He wants to give out a tip for those using the Roku. Did you know you can get more content than what’s in […]
Now anyone can have L33t HaX0r skilz. A Firefox extension called “Firesheep” automates hacking your wi-fi connection if you are using public wi-fi. Here’s an excerpt from the Guardian’s report: Firesheep, though, has an easy-to-use interface and, perhaps most importantly, a cute name. Surely this can’t be a “cracking tool”? It wasn’t released by someone […]
Getting ready for the show, web site goes down. I was on the Tech Buzz Friday Free for All. Did some slight audio tweaking. Social Media Club Tonight, Google will be showing up. Will be driving a Taurus SHO on April 7th to test out the SYNC system. Winner of this weeks’ Diskeeper 2010: Galliosi […]

YouTube has established it’s name for the last 4 years as the place to post your videos. It didn’t matter what they were – as long as they were not of adult or copyrighted material. They’ve also seen some growing pains attached to pushing out home made content. The Baby dancing to a Prince song […]
The Guardian reports that some scientists are concerned that the internet is consuming too much electricity. Read the story here; I’m not even going to try to excerpt it. I guess it’s time for all of us to go back to chipping out our bitstrips on the walls of the cave.
From the further reaches of the tech frontier, USA Today reports that Mexican drug cartels use YouTube to boast of their successes and intimidate their opponents. Read the full story here.

Henry Porter writing in the Observer attempts to make the “Or Not” case. Read the full column here. I suggest you do, because it presages the arguments of those who would strangle technology to preserve walled gardens.

Wow. It was about a year ago I asked for people to send in thoughts as to what to expect in 2008. I also made some Technology predictions. But the real question was – How far off was I? This is actually part 1 of a 2-part story. This first part reviews the predictions I […]
