Google+'s iPhone-First Update →
parislemon: Vic Gundotra: To be clear, we’re not interested in a mobile or social experience that’s just smaller. We’re embracing the sensor-rich smartphone (with its touchable screen and high-density display), and transforming Google+ into something more intimate, and more expressive. Today’s new iPhone app is an important step in this direction—toward a simpler, more beautiful Google. ...

Letting go of emails is good for you new study... →
I have not clicked through to read the full study. Too often what a study actually says is far, far different than what the headline says. But in this case I know that with population = me email causes stress. When I check email early in the morning I tend to get crankier with the kids. Suddenly I go from mellow and getting myself ready to go to work vs. racing around full of negative energy....

parislemon: It was (sorta) fun while it lasted. Actually, it wasn’t all that fun. Plus, I always felt like there was the very real possibility that in the end, stupidity would win out.
