When Robots Attack...

...it's good to know who your friends are.





I think I might need to order this bracelet. For the future.

Video: A Little Girl Inspires YouTubers

Anyone who watches YouTube will realize how negative a place like that can be. But fortunately, it doesn't always have to be a place filled with sarcasm, debate and cussing.

Her name is Jacey. She is ten years old and suffers from leukemia. But her positive attitude has inspired a community to reach back with a million hugs.





Things like these make my eyes water (and my mouth smile). Jacey's story (before this YouTube entry) seems to have inspired even the big guns at Microsoft to fund a trip for her to Disneyland.

In a world full of depression, items like these make my day (if not week).

Update: The best video response that I've ever seen. Aloha indeed!

What Google And The Borg Have In Common

It looks like the Google Earth team has recently added a new Geographic Web layer which basically allows you to see comments about locations from Wikipedia, the Google Earth forum and Panoramio.

Google is becoming like the Borg (except a friendlier version of them). Assimilating all information and making it usable for the masses.

But with this latest addition to Google Earth, should it be classified as a social network like MySpace and Orkut?



Keeping The Faith

So after several other editors decided to leave the Blog Herald (with two of them blogging over at 901 am) I've decided to stay and blog on.

Besides, it's teaching me a lot about how to write and interact with people (especially of different minds, cultures, etc.). How could I leave something like that?

Did I mention I'm excited to be working with Abe?
