The Singularity is Near

Friday, March 16th, 2007

Well, I finally made it through Ray Kurzweil’s latest book, “The Singularity is Near When Humans Transcend Biology”. It was a good, dense read that raises and supports a very interesting future we’re heading into. Definitely worth the read.

Blog Roll Experiment

Friday, March 2nd, 2007

I rarely respond to anything in unsolicited emails, but a beta test from a company called Criteo intrigued me. They have created a widget that automagically analyzes a blog and creates what they call and AutoRoll. An AutoRoll in theory is a blog roll made up of sites that might also be relevant to one’s readers. The value to a blog is more links across the blogosphere pointing to the blog. I’m skeptical of the value of such links, but curious enough to check it out. Find my AutoRoll at the bottom right of the page.
