    It’s kinda a slow news day overall. Maybe everyone is all wrapped up in this whole city underwater thing. Not my style. So instead I’m catching up a bit on the geekier side of the reading I have sitting untouched in my aggie. Posts from LTU are always good for... [Read More]

  • I'll Just Skip the Claws

    Posted on September 1, 2005

    Apparently mammals can regenerate too. And injecting fetal liver cells is enough to get an existing organism regenerating. No retrovirus needed or anything, how cool is that?

    The Webzine tickets are on sale now. What is webzine? Here’s a schedule, check it out for yourself. I’ve heard about it mostly from Scott at Laughing Squid, which is more than enough of an endorsement for me to plunk down a measly $20 on a two day event. [Read More]

    Posted on August 28, 2005

    This was linked off Slashdot, so I’m sure everyone and their grandmother has already seen it, but here’s a story about some folks tracking down a cell phone theif. Besides liking the final bit: [Read More]

    Posted on August 26, 2005

    Jeff has posted the presentation and some extra info from his Barcamp presentation: Session on Venture Capital Concepts. Fantastic stuff. Jeff is an excellent example of what happens when entrepreneurship and venture work out the way they should. I would tell you to talk to him if you don’t already... [Read More]
