Seth Godin speaks at Google about Marketing
Posted on March 14, 2006

I came across a great presentation on Google Video that Seth Godin does at Google about marketing.
I had heard about Seth before and was planning to buy some of his marketing books. I think I will after seeing this, he is a very well spoken presenter and has really good insight into the psycology of marketing. I guess its just more my writing style and what I enjoy reading.
The video is 45min, I suggest you take a look if you have some spare time. He gives great examples and gives an overall good presentation. In the mean time, I’m going to buy “All Marketers are Liars” and see if its as good as they say and will give a review.

HTC Hermes / MDA Vario II seen at CeBit

Sad to say, the successor to my phone, the Qtek 9100, has been released at CeBit and does it every look delicious. Time to keep up with the jones’.
When I said all I wanted in an upgrade was:
- A faster processor
- Faster HSDPA/UMTS network support
- Videophone features
- A bit smaller
I guess they were already in the works because here it is. It is supposedly packing the following:
- UMTS / HSDPA Network support
- 300MHz Samsung processor
- 128MB flash and 64MB memory
- 2.8-inch display
- 802.11b/g
- Bluetooth 2.0
- MicroSD
- 2.1 megapixel camera
- Secondary CIF videoconferencing camera.
Though I don’t know what the deal with MicroSD, its really starting to irritate me how no one can follow a similar standard when it comes to mobile memory expansion. My current version has MiniSD.

The Relativity of Time
Posted on March 9, 2006

/begin asymmetrical pondering
You know, reflecting back on things and life I had a realization concerning the relative nature of time. Something I kinda always just took for granted and never really thought about until now.
Being completely relative to every individual, I’ve found in my experience that time goes REALLY fast when you’re having fun or are busy doing something. But in the long run retrospect, that period of time (for example 6 months to a year) that you were having lots of fun and were busy seems like a longer period of time then it actually was
I find the exact opposite is true too. When I have nothing to do but lay around, time goes REAL slow (as I’m sure many experience in school), but looking back I can’t remember anything valuable I did and it seems like the period came and went in the blink of an eye
Weird, I guess its just interesting to see how the majority of the world views “time”. As something thats all encompassing, this inevitabe box that is always there, the thing that dictactes the majority of peoples lives and even their life span. Sometimes I wonder how the world would be different if this concept of time wasn’t fused into everyone’s brain in the same context as it is today.
I sometimes wonder who was the first to create this form of measurement, after all thats all it is, a tool for measurement. I wonder if you take the “Think outside the box” concept and apply it to “Time” what you would get and how retaining that thinking over time would change your life. Hrm.

Record Set for Hottest Temperature on Earth: 3.6 Billion Degrees in Lab
Posted on March 9, 2006

This, is freaking, AWESOME!
“Scientists have produced superheated gas exceeding temperatures of 2 billion degrees Kelvin, or 3.6 billion degrees Fahrenheit.This is hotter than the interior of our Sun, which is about 15 million degrees Kelvin, and also hotter than any previous temperature ever achieved on Earth, they say.
The feat was accomplished in the Z machine at Sandia National Laboratories.”
“Also, when the high temperature was achieved, the Z machine was releasing more energy than was originally put in, something that usually occurs only in nuclear reactions.”
and the best part:
“They don’t know how they did it.”
Why I guess I think this is so great is because it was beyond the realm of imagination for many people. It just was something that “Wasn’t possible”, just like at one time it was impossible to fly through the air until the first airplane was built. Or that the world was square until proven otherwise or that the universe revolved around the Earth.
Now, things like this happen all the time, everyday, it doesn’t make this that much of a shock. I guess why its so great is that people are so trained to their senses that something can’t be possible until it is either heard, smelt, felt, seen or tasted, but once it is it seems obvious to so many. Something like being told and conditioned to believe a paticular thing your entire life but somewhere inside could feel otherwise, until the day when that belief was shattered. Funny how these things happen.
In any case, check out the article here
