Tag. You're It! [aka You Put the Lime in the Coconut and Drink It All Up]

Technorati... The stairway to my 15 minutes o' fame in the blogosphere. I tagged a few of my posts and checked them out on Technorati. In my Technorati search, it was necessary to change the search limitation so that any and all blogs would be searched. It worked! Neat! Technorati definitely provides a service not available with such tools as Google.

While exploring Technorati, I discovered a link to the most popular blog in the world: Boing Boing!
http://www.boingboing.net/
"Boing Boing is a weblog of cultural curiosities and interesting technologies. It's the most popular blog in the world, as ranked by Technorati.com, and won the Lifetime Achievement and Best Group Blog awards at the 2006 Bloggies ceremony."


Boing Boing features so many interesting posts, not the least of which is one that takes us back to the islands, yet again. It's about a gentleman pursuing the idea of using coconuts as containers for his electronics projects!!

Tattoos... How Touching!

From Stephen's Lighthouse... Tattoo Touch Screens

"Imagine! A touchscreen on your arm as a subcutaneous digital display powered by your own blood. It could be a video phone, a calculator, or more.

Just think - spam, phishing, and begging phone calls delivered directly to your body. Here's one idea I hope never comes to fruition. (Of course the technology that drives this could have excellent medical uses that do make a difference.) I don't even want to speculate about what the upgrade path looks like. Imagine aging gracefully but having the tattoo equivalent of a rotary dial phone permanently inked on your arm."

I'm with him. This is one scary, albeit obsessive, invention.
