You are not doing them any favors, first by not disclosing your employment at Google and second by what you said. If I were Larry Page or Ballmer or...I'd force every employee to declare "Disclosure: I work for [Company,] but the opinions a

The numbers are fishy, but if they are growing by XX% (1) a year, expect MS to reach that pretty soon. Love it or hate it, getting all your tech needs from one company has its advantages (and disadvantages). 1. Azure subscriptions have ris

Even during sexy time, overlay a face of gwyneth paltrow onto your partner. I assume you've never been in a relationship. Nothing will turn a woman more than saying I am having sex with you because I'm dreaming of [movie star] ;) How abo

You do understand that to do all those supposedly great things, you have to wear the dorky glasses on (yes, they're dorky!) AND a have smartphone with you. So there is a cost, both financial and social. Not sure how you thought of the bar s

Not much to say other than LOL, maybe because it isn't that far off from the supposedly real and readable ones. Maybe put this at the last step of something the person really wants?

Even if true, 20%-30% of that is probably taken as a winners fee by the politicians. So the contractors have to buy substandard materials and labor, causing this "infrastructure" to last a decade or two, at best.

Why? Because you don't need to make 1 cent off each tomato sold in USA to be successful. Even taking a cut of every water pump of a certain car is more then enough--for most of us.

Scoble is different from you and me. His job is (or was) to attract as many people and as much attention to Rackspace. By being a whore for every new platform he did that really well. A normal person builds his own brand at hisname.com, but
