A whole lotta latte, and a dash of humor

Sponsored by Puzzle Piece Productions

We have a fun show tonight, lots of little things went right this week and the news flow was nice and smooth. Work is still crazy and no one is sleeping but that is what coffee is all about AMIRITE? Let’s Do this.

So today we have a heap of coffee news, a smattering of awesome tech bytes, and the fun just don’t stop! I’m pretty sure we may even find a bad pun or two to throw down as well. Join Steve and Myself for a fun filled episode.

Tonight’s show is a wrap of of stuff that caught my eye from CES, a run down of stuff you have already heard about, and tons of awesome bits that slipped through the cracks. We have funny comments, witty one liners and other jokes. Non by me, so you’re all safe. Lego, Dino and Roomba Oh My!

So we have a very dense show tonight, a little on the heavy side with privacy concerns and why a program allowing amateur hacking is a good thing in the long run, as well as some utterly and completely silly nonsense. It all depends on what part of geek culture you hail from but i seriously think we have all of our bases covered on today’s show. So sit back and enjoy the ride.

This is my world you’re all just drinking my coffee.

Besides all that today’s show has a nice eclectic feel for the content. Being that I amassed the stories over the past little while its a true blend of all the best and brightest news and fun stuff from the internet over the past week or so. Hopefully you like Hockey, Aliens, Coffee, Baristas, Apple, Hulu, Crayons and more

So I’m 30 now, new decade, same mission. I’ve sworn to bring the fun, and often overlooked bits of web detritus and caffeinated goodness to your ears, twice weekly. While not yet at the age of adulthood for a hobbit i find myself once more just the right age for a man. This week’s show has a mix of both old and new, retro goodies nestles in between bits of current news and interesting stories. Bonus points for the first person to tell me what the hobbit age of adulthood is. :-D

An Existential masterpiece of an episode from a producer who just doesn’t feel all there right now. We talk robots, ufo’s, coffee and Steampunk

Today’s Show:  Weather, Lego, Silly Putty, Coffee, Kindle 2, Retro, Steampunk, Geneva Convention, Yerba Mate, Popcorn, Weddings, and Cancer

This show has some absolutely great content from pressing issues on the Internet as a whole to some fun new designs working on old problems. One thing that always gets me is when people put enough effort into a product or a design and just miss the finishing touches, the small bits of finish that really set aside a good piece from a great piece, unfortunately we have a couple of those examples as well.

Over all this is a strong show with content from a wide variety of topics and sources and I hope that the Title and the content on the episode really explore the duality of living online. You are both virtual and real at the same point as some of the stories I found are old and new, polar opposites in one combination or just a perfect match. The entire day around the Caffination Lair has felt like it was waiting for something exciting and something fun, I’d like to welcome you to that exciting and Fun event right now.

As always Enjoy the show and Stay Caffeinated!

Today’s Show:  TOS, facebook, PirateBay, Privacy, Passwords, legos, pixels, king kong, salt and pepper, tea, and coffee

Well I have a full complement of hands once more. typing is a joy, well at least for now. Still working the kinks out of the systems but it feels good to be able to put ideas to paper once more. I can’t wait to share the ideas I’ve been kicking around for the last month. We have a ton of new content on deck i just need to flesh it out and give it life so to speak. The Robot Overlord Appeasement poster is going to rock, the Tech in Tough times articles are shaping up as well. But thats all in the future, today’s show has a host of great links to lego goodness, some fun kerfuffle concerning TOS and the facebook flack, and a ton more content covering all the stuff listed above and more.

I would like to say that even though the Facebook story takes up a good deal of physical space on the post it does not in fact use anywhere near that amount of time in the show. I just wanted to make sure i was able to share all of the great content that was pushed out in reference. While the story is old, lessons can still be learned from the issues it raised.

Enjoy the show and Stay Caffeinated ~!

I had a teacher in Middle school Mrs Harper, who tasked me with finding a quiet way to work out my nervous energy when working on a project. “Find or make a ‘fidget‘ ” she said. It has to be small, light, and silent. Now I just use whatever debris is handy. I have her to thank for the best productivity tip I ever received. Do you have a fidget?

I need to have busy hands. When I’m working on a problem or waiting to get something done I make things, i doodle, i draw constantly, not well mind you. The larger the product the more raw materials from the office landscape i seem to use. If I ever work on a huge project i might disassemble something important. For especially big projects keeping my hands busy is just enough of a distraction to clear my head and allow my mind to move forward. Think Lucky Bat from a Few Good Men.

Numbers are Up!

In the spirit of the Adopt a Newb Day 2008 celebration which is fast approaching I wanted to answer a frequent question I get asked . And I might ask the same of you. What do you get out of Social Media, and Social Networking sites, and how can they help my (insert podcast, blog, dairy farm)? It is a very valid question for the amount of time I spend on twitter, checking myspace, facebook and anything else where you can friend someone? It is a very valid question, and surprisingly it doesn’t have a simple answer. This article also sprung from a recent article by Chris Penn concerning the value of social networks when compared to choosing a school based on its name.

Consider this a Public service announcement, and a thread starter.

You all should know these things but sometimes they are better off written, read aloud, and repeated. I’ve codified three basic rules you should follow when posting online, if you value a harmonious existence. And despite what you may think not all people do. It takes courage to be divisive, to polarize or to pick a side. And more often than not standing by those guns will win you both favor with some and loose the respect of others. Some people can not take advice nor information from people who think differently than they do. All that being said, if you are online for the fun, if your a student using Facebook for a hoot or a mild mannered accountant just looking to reach out this article is for you.
