Beware the Pudding Face

Jell-O has taken the mood ring to an unhealthy level. The odd floating head reacts to the overall happiness of the people on twitter who follow it.

From Offline filesharing to flavor hacking your coffee equipment we touch on so many different topics in this show its kind-of a shame it has to end.

CaffiNation 460: Spooky Fun

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.

Greening it Up Earth Day Style

Another Earth Day rolls around on the calendar to find that being green is getting easier. Adoption of CFL’s as alternatives to Edisonian Incandescents are taking off. Al Gore has throw down with a new presentation that is getting some notice. And very worth your time to watch. I’ve talked about it before but sometimes [...]

Fidget

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 [...]

Connections and their value

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, [...]

Form Over Function Friday: Go Team Coffee

Today is a special day. Everyday is special but today is the first full day that the silliness over at Twitter has truly embraced @TeamCoffee.

Go Team Coffee
