You know it always amazes me when you watch the world get closer to that future you have come to expect from SciFi movies and the lot.  It’s nice to see that before I pass I will be able to see these wonders and more.  And I thought my grandmother saw some amazing things in her lifetime…

It would be really cool to see something like this as an add-on to the iPhone or Andriod devices.  Ala Bluetooth would be even better.  Just imagine an off-duty paramedic or a properly trained CPR/First Aid citizen with this equipment and the ability to upload this information to a 911 operator in any dire situation.

I really haven’t got into Hulu.  Mainly because I don’t feel like having to work for what I call disposable TV programing.  Which let’s face it.  When it comes to media, there are at least two categories… Passive consumption, and active viewing.  The majority of my television is in the later.  Hence Hulu and my relationship.  Their new desktop application makes it really hard not to become a total desk potato.  Now all I want is official integration with the AppleTV. Oh and FiOS Internet Service.

You know that line between nerdy and just bizzare?  Here it is…

I could really care less about the video game portion.  But sign me up for fire in the face.  I imagine it would be like talking to a dragon.

I can’t say that the history of commercial air travel in the last twenty to thirty years has really made me fall in love with flight.  No, for that I should probably be thanking Shuster or Siegel.  But when I do fly, my overall preference is Air Tran Airways.  I have been on some flights lately and came across a promotion they ran to democratize changes to their in-flight features.  Below are some of the suggestions passengers submitted:

The other day I checked my iTunes download queue to see how much longer until the the water was boiling.  Take a look at the third item in the queue…
