Updated Stories, fantastic reviews and a well caffeinated evening
To say that I’m surprised would be an understatement. I honestly left the live show for dead over a year ago thinking that no one would ever come to watch a taping of my podcast let alone develope into any sort of community. Now i have people looking specifically for this, I’m both humbled that people enjoy it so much and pretty enthused about where we could go. I’m not quite stoked yet, i don’t think i’ve ever been stoked.
Tonight’s Show we talk about giant LEGO robots, massive man made machines and ghostbusters on the wii. We touch on location based problems with Google buzz and tap into the latest in serious real world problems facing the tech of today. But nothing too serious wouldn’t want anyone to learn anything too quickly now would we?

Food and Caffeinated Bits:
So its going to snow again, philly averages 20 inches a year we have had 65, the last snow just finally started disappearing and tonight we try to add some more ice to the fire, what a crazy year this has been. Chances and forecasts are looking for 5 – 18 inches in my area depending on your impending doom cast…
A wonderful live show was interrupted by a kid-let waking in the middle of the show, and a house in disarray. Things got back on track but only after a hunt through the bowels of a spare parts box found the mystic universal power adapter. All hail the universal adapter. Its been a long night so please excuse the crazies, unless you enjoy them then enjoy away.
Thanks and Stay Caffeinated People!

Today’s Show: robots, gardens, NES, Pacman, Dragon, turntables, GE, Math, Pi, Coffee, Scanwhiches, Sushi, review, TP
Tonight’s episode was almost labeled The Wasteful because of the huge number of leftovers after this show was created. I simply could not cram any more awesome into the time slotted. While the podcast could theoretically go on forever we had to draw the line somewhere, and that line was here.
Instead I decided to break it down into the two most represented categories R and R is Retro and Robots, a metric ton of awesome in each subcat. Caffeinated all the way in today’s show we speak of coffee as fuel for your car, fuel for your mind, and robots which tend gardens. We discuss the finery of Pacman, the majesty of Zork and the horror of modern advertising which is so cool you can’t avert your eyes.
This Episode also could have been called the Birthday Super Throwdown Edition.
Happy birthday to My father in Law, My Father and My Sister!
So Please Enjoy the show and Stay Caffeinated!

How many people know the worth of their files?
You will only truly know after they are gone. I was recently asked to review a piece of backup software. Siber Systems Goodsync Pro. I have to tell you i was excited by the opportunity because this is one of the areas in my computer life where I am the least vigilant. As a technical support person I often tell people to backup their documents, on occasion I even do it myself. The process, either via Windows Briefcase, in house backup solutions or simply burning items to a CD is time consuming and frustrating. Quite often the users don’t end up backing anything up and I’m forced to try and recover their files or my own. I have had hard drives fail. All of my experiences have taught me something. The dirty truth about backing files up is that no one likes to do it because its boring, and is often justified as time that could be better off spent doing something else. Since no one likes to do it, its hard to figure out and takes up your time, no one does. And this is a problem waiting to happen.

“There are Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics.”~Mark Twain & Benjamin Disraeli
You’ve heard the phrase before, you’ve probably even been a victim of the results. But the facts stand when you run a website you need a reliable metrics to measure how well you’re doing and help you figure out what works and what doesn’t. Whether you are running a site for a hobby, or you are setting yourself up for a business account, everyone wants eyeballs on their site.
Its how you know
Woopra is a different type of stats service, still in beta. I’m running the service on CaffiNation.com. My site is running wordpress so I installed their wordpress plugin, added the javascript to the templates and was set to jet. Woopra gives you live results. No waiting to see what the numbers are a day later you can actually watch as people hit your site, and even chat with them as they do It. Although the chat functionality seems to freak people out a bit more than i initially expected it to.

 I don’t often get a chance to give my opinion of a good unique product here. There are times when i come across them and I feel the need to jump on it. Canned Coffee is quite popular in Asia, I am told, but beyond the horrible Starbucks Doubleshots and frappicinos they are few and far between state-side.
One of my Favorite spots to eat on campus, Temple University Main Campus, is the Japanese & Korean Lunch Truck that was featured in this episode of Philly Food Guys. Teppanyaki is some good food let me tell you. I work on a college campus so the lunch truck thing never bothered me. But this truck is special beyond the fantastic food, they also carry Hello Boss Coffee. The can has changed recently but the flavor is the same. Its no where near healthy for you but it is awesome stuff. Read the rest of this entry »

I sort through a lot of different articles and press releases in order to bring only the freshest and most interesting content to the Site. I’m always on the lookout for great pieces of Caffeine Culture to bring to you. A week ago I was sent information of a product which caught my eye. Golden Star Tea is a non alcoholic sparkling beverage. To be served as you would Champagne or White wine. I contacted the company and was lucky enough to be sent a sample to try.
What I received in the mail was an example of what people should send with their products. The two sample sized bottles of Golden Star Tea came with an information packet which answered any and all questions I might have had about the beverage. Nutritional information, the official press release, recent awards, and a letter from the Co-Founder Joel Rosenberg. Before we go any further, thank you for making my experience and my work that much easier and more enjoyable from the moment the box opened
