Link toTagxedo Word Clouds About Me Music Tagxedo Word Clouds September 6, 2010 I’ve been having fun playing with a site called Tagxedo (that’s like Tuxedo but with Tag).

Placeholder image - camera icon. Link toGoogle voice transcript versus email Hearing Google voice transcript versus email June 22, 2010 I like that the NY Times wrote about closed captioning on the web earlier this week. But I had to laugh at their quote that YouTube “supplies mostly accurate captions using voice-recognition software.” MOSTLY accurate? Right.

I’ve had it about a month now. Back in March, a week or so before the iPad came put I picked up the most boring domain name I have owed so far – iPadLaserEngraving.com.

May 14 is my last day at USJ. People seem to think it’s Rupert’s “fault” that I’m leaving but it’s really not that specific. I like what I do here and I’ve worked for a […] Number of comments: 1
