Derek Sivers did a talk at TED about this crazy dancing guy and what we can learn from him in terms of leadership, and more importantly about the importance of the first few followers.

I had my first play with WolframAlpha this morning. I was watching the launch on justin.tv and saw the search url people we using. By doing this I got around the opening soon window ...

Was very fast until they started load testing and then things started timing out. Cool as a first experience though. To View More >>

LOL they made me laugh out loud. Thanks Girls To View More >>

And a sons ability to look past his own challenges and become so much more than any of us would think reasonable. Dick and Rick Hoyt you will be my heros forever. YOU CAN TOO! To View More >>
