Aeryth… the beginning of my storybook universe.

March 31, 2009

Back in 2002, I purchased Aeryth.com to create a storybook universe for collaborative writing. The idea was to construct a framework for writers to work together and stir creativity. Each new writer is given a world wherein they are given the power of creation. Each world is placed in an omniverse that interconnects over 35,000 [...]

Moto, and their Lab created an e-Ink Android device proof of concept.

March 31, 2009

MOTO Development Group created what they call “Android Meets E Ink” which is a OMAP apps processor development board running Android connected via USB of all things, to an e-Ink development kit. I love this challenger to the eInk/Kindle/Amazon space, even if it is killing an idea in the process. I want these developed. Ubuntu [...]

I guess Ben Paynter has never heard of Enron.

March 27, 2009

I was surfing Wired today and read an article titled “Trade Electricity Like Pork Bellies” and I instantly questioned the age and awareness of the writer. Enron was due to energy trading and gaming of the system, and it will happen again without expensive and constant regulation and oversight. If there is a mechanism that [...]

Does standardization create exploitation?

March 26, 2009

I’ve just begun to look into this idea. For instance, lets say that when I did my calculation I discovered that I could predict the exact point of the bottom of the DJIA. Which I did btw.. well, I was off by 30 points. I now we are watching my upswing calculation bear fruit [I [...]

AIG v AIGFP v Press v Politics : Two sides to the story.

March 25, 2009

This is amazing. Slowly discovering the real story. I had initially suggested that AIG was at odds with everyone not employed by AIG, and that holds true both in generous bonuses and the track it took to land us all here. Well, AIG FP at least. Then I watched the grilling of Liddy which showed [...]

The Federal Government should use a Wiki.

March 18, 2009

So, based on Senator Olympia Snowe’s revelation that she had included clauses that would have prevented the AIG bonus issue; and someone removed it, it appears there are problems with law construction in the Federal Governmentment. There are no session controls in place, so you have one document floating around, and no one knows who [...]

So, Liddy confirms what I've been saying…

March 18, 2009

Insuring money with money is stupid. As a business person I understand the desire to minimize risk, but insuring a derivative [money] with money is nothing but calculating risk. It starts getting complex from this point on, the concepts are complex themselves… the math as you go deeper into each stage is probably mind boggling, [...]

Color e-paper makes me e-happy.

March 18, 2009

I was just talking about this… color e-paper will be the best thing to hit mobile computers since the integrated circuit. Unfortunately, the current release is too slow for consumption in anything but an ebook reader. A lot of people have reported on this, I simply comment about the technology. Engadget has it, Gadget Crave [...]

Hackery, not new to Tucker Carlson, but it still must hurt.

March 18, 2009

Gawker’s John Cook writes this morning that Jon Stewart has made Tucker Carlson “restless” and suffer from “bitter nights” and I have to agree after watching Carlson go after Stewart on TV and “The Daily Beast.” See, Tucker Carlson was waylaid back in 2004 by Stewart, calling Carlson and Begala “partisan hacks” and it was [...]

Dead Cat Bounce…

March 16, 2009

Is today the crest of a dead cat bounce? I’m thinking yes. We’ll see though. I had predicted the decline to 6500 [it hit 6470] and I think it will continue to fluctuate between 6500 and 6800 for a little while before increasing back to the 9300 point level. That is, if AIG doesn’t collapse, [...]

AIG at odds with everyone not employed at AIG.

March 16, 2009

That might be hyperbole, but when you think of a company that fails to make a profit, you do not tend to think of handing out bonuses to keep that same talent that failed to make a profit. The Obama administration wants to do something about it. Perhaps utilizing FAR concepts to terminate the contractual [...]

Lenovo Pocket Yoga – Please change the name.

March 16, 2009

So, Lenovo drops a good looking netbook, and everyone is jumping on it. From BoingBoingGadgets to SlashGear, Engadget, Gizmodo, CrunchGear and me. I’ll link to an article instead of rehashing what everyone else says. I don’t know who it was to drop it first, but I’ll link to Electronista because I’ve never heard of them [...]

HATCHfinance.com – A blog dedicated to fundamental stock research.

March 11, 2009

I’m just making a Keyword Bingo placeholder for HATCHfinance.com, a future blog discussing the fundamental research everyone should do when investing. Eliminate the risk associated with investing by going long [indifference to Jim Cramer] based on fundamental research, not the sick rumblings of the DOW.
