Random 60: Are you geocoded?
Turn up your speakers for this one folks. My friend Eric Brophy and I (more him than me) have a chat about geocoding, mashups, Twitter, and the potential for other geocoded things to pop up in the future.
You can pretty much expect First initial, last name to be 85% geo in 2010.
No question this time [...]

Random 60: What time do you wake up?
Random 60: What time do you wake up?
I wake up every morning around 6:45a. I love it. Back in 2006 I was getting up at 7. As I get older, I’m getting up earlier. But really, I enjoy waking up early and getting things accomplished. It is when I work best.
What about you?

Random 60: What does “microwave safe” actually mean?
Random 60: What does “microwave safe” actually mean?
Seriously. Because it certainly doesn’t mean “not boiling hot and will melt your hand off if you warm up your dinner from last night in this crazy thing”. Someone please answer this riddle for me.

Random 60: TXT or call?
Which would you prefer? Do you like getting text messages or would you rather someone give you a call and have a conversation about what they want? Are you like me and you’d like phone calls from family and friends for conversation but would rather a simple TXT message or email [...]
Random 60: I love leftovers.
Random 60: I love leftovers.
One of my favorite foods is leftovers. Pretty much anything that is leftover from the night before will do – but certain foods stand out. Some, in fact, seem to be even better the next day than they are on the first day. Soups, Mac & Cheese, Pizza, Brownies, just to [...]

A video tour of suite 4235 on the Carnival Miracle cruise ship
When Eliza and I were hunting for good photos and videos of what the rooms looked like aboard the Carnival Miracle for our vacation we really couldn’t find what we were looking for. Sure, there were some photos but many of them weren’t very good. The ones that were good didn’t really provide any depth [...]

Random 60: Interesting facts about water | Favorite on Viddler.
Something a little, different – or maybe random – for today’s Random 60. I saw this interesting facts about water list and I figured I’d share my favorites for no other reason than because I think water is awesome.
Are you a fan of water?
Random 60: Can’t wait.
Random 60: Can’t wait. on Viddler.
Wait, are you saying that you can not wait? Or, are you saying that you’d rather not wait? See, there’s a difference. But – even though I don’t like the phrase “I can’t wait” I don’t see any alternative that won’t peg you as being a geek or nerd.
