So its been awhile since I posted anything. had a small break and spent all my time working around my house. not really a break but I didn’t get near a computer for the whole week, which is different for me.

Anyway, so there are two things that top my mind today. First I see Google has released a operating system with all there app attached to it. The screen-shot look really cool and the amount of memory needed to run the OS is only 256 MB which is nothing compared to the average machine today. I’m a little worried about the usefulness of there OS without a internet connection as something that uses so little ram would be great for this country but if a 24/7 connection is needed then it might be a waste of time. I will have to wait and see though. don’t have a copy yet and not sure if I will be able to get one too soon.

On a happy note, two unknown people to me go engaged over twitter…
Still not sure how I feel about this, the whole thing is a virtual event so far, they are not in the same city at the moment so everything is happening over the net.

Well what ever happens I hope the two of them have a great life together and don’t spend too much of it in a virtual space.

Ok so you may have noticed I add some of the Google connect gadget. This is finally going to give an easy way of monitoring comments on this site as all I ever get is damn s p a m and I got sick of that and removed the comments feature.

I will see how this goes and hopefully all will be well and good.

Well yes my thoughts on user names and passwords on the internet, can we not join them all, I mean I cant remember that many login details. I mean I know there is OpenID and there great idea of only having one login set but its not working. For that to work you need the big players to use it. E.G. Yahoo, google, facebook, myspace.. etc

I mean what are the chances of that happening. is there no one out there with some sort of idea that will change the world when it comes to internet logins.

I mean next the first world countries will start using hardware on the computers to login to systems and where will that leave the rest of us? Already there are limits if you are based in a first world country and as tech stuff improves and changes we are always behind. I heard of this thing today that can turn your average window into a speaker. Thats cool, but if you look at the stat of the average window in SA it wouldn’t work.

My favorite joke of recent from the Mike man(Barman at ROAR):
Q: What did South Africa have before candles?
A: Electricity

At what point does one decide to move to a first world country and leave there loved home to enjoy the benefits of the first?
