about me
If only I could split myself into about ten parallel universes, then, just maybe, I could live all the life I want to live. Maybe.

#058 -- Free will versus determinism (or fate) is a topic that humans have debated in song and story for as far back in our history as we have knowledge. Is human choice real, or is it illusionary? And if we have choice, what can we do with it? This discussion covers the philosophical, the spiritual, and the scientific aspects of the question from neurology to metaphysics.

#057 -- The Apple iPhone -- Is the iPhone the cell phone reinvented? Or is it mobile computing as it ought to be? How does this relate to Google's philosophy that the network is the platform? Is this the smartphone that Bluejack has been longing for, or just another expensive toy tempting people in the wrong direction?

#056 -- Sony Reader -- In which the etch-a-sketch comes of age... and becomes the first cool new display technology in years. Sony, however, is not content with being the first mainstream company to make this new technology available to Americans, it's also starting yet another standards war by intoducing one more proprietary ebook format into an already crowded field. Is the result totally lame? The future of reading? Is this the gotta-have tech of the 2006 Christmas season? What will it take to win the reader wars?
