I've seen articles off and on in regards to the fact that more male Google+ than women. Just this morning I read an article on Mashable stating "...It’s true that the early adopters of any new technology are usually male. But Google+ will have to appeal to a mainstream audience if it’s to reach mass adoption anytime soon."[ http://mashable.com/2011/07/14/google-plus-male/ ] My answer to this

This past week Google released Google+ project which may or may not become a competitor with Facebook and from what I've been hearing it's not too bad so me being a lover of tech, gadgets, and social network I reached out to a couple of geek peeps for an invite which I received two invites (thanks Anjuan and Bill) but when I went to use the invite this is the screen that popped up for me.

Do you know anyone that listens to the radio? I mean really, do you? I don't listen to the radio when it comes to music (the only time when that happens is when I'm in the car with my queen when she's driving...I love her but when it comes to listening to commercial radio for me I want to blow my brains out...I really do.) When is the last time you can actually say, "I heard this cool jam on

When my queen wanted to see this movie I had already performed a checklist and kicked this movie to the curve before seeing this "disaster" . I knew there would be loud talking in the movie theater. I had already knew it was going to have buffoonery, stereotypes characters left and right but my sweet thought it was going to be a good movie because in her mind, T.D. Jakes name was behind it and

With the recent missteps of Sony with PlayStation, the issue with Apple's information gathering, and Amazon's servers outage you would think the tech world is going to hell in a reusable hand bag with these and other things that are going involving tech. Heck, even yesterday the host service I use, Dreamhost's servers went down. A couple of months ago I would have been high upset but now I shrug

Hello and Happy Monday! New podcast from yours truly. I wrote what inspired me in regards to this podcast. At first I was going to complain about technology but in the end I'm so thankful for technology. I also put a couple of video links in the show notes. I love the video by Daft Punk and Donald Fagen. In the near future I will dedicate a podcast to Mr. Fagen because for me whenever I listen

Funny, just 8 years ago in order to save space on my hard drive I would have to rip (record) music files at 128kbps because at the time external hard drives were not cheap at all.

Today I went to having 22 podcast programs on my iPod to only 11. Sometime you have to realize that you can't listen to every thing and you have to begin making decisions on what you really enjoy. Sometimes you have to pinpoint what is really important to you and what will help you day to day. I truly dig technology but today I'm making a decision on what programs I truly enjoy and what I will

The cool thing I love about photography is that there are so many photographers hobbyists or professionals who love sharing tips. I listen to a podcast called "This Week(in)Photography and the host Frederick Van Johnson has cool guest on his podcast every time but what's also cool is that he has produced a 10 part podcast called "Shut Up and Shoot" where he gives 10 quick tips on helping you

I'm finding that music is like photography more and more. With photography, you take photograph after photograph and with some photos you think you've nailed it and when you arrive home and look through the photos you see you didn't quite capture what you wanted...but then you take photographs and what you think are just average photos you look at them closer and you have captured some amazing

I've followed Fresh Air with Terry Gross for many years but I have to admit I had let it fall to the wayside for close to a year. From time to time I would listen to it off and on but to be honest I think life and laziness got in the way. The jobs that I've had I really never had time to listen to public radio and also I let TV get in the way of listening to quality programming. The job I have

Something about Whole Foods that I dig when coming into this grocery store. The entire atmosphere is well, wholesome. From an outsider they would complain about their prices but when I sit back and think about the higher prices work in the customer's favor in a couple of ways. First, the foods that you're buying is better for you. We live in a world where we complain about our health, how

This past week I've listened to the on-time message by Dr. Charles Stanley in regards to dealing with procrastination. I'm not going to lie, this has hindered me in so many ways. I love to write but have been to afraid and lazy in that regard. This past year has been really an rollercoster ride for me in my personal life and I'm realizing I'm not getting any younger so it's time for me to shoot

I never was a "zombie" type of person. I don't think I have ever seen a zombie film. When I heard that AMC was creating a series on zombies I thought, "This isn't going anywhere. Maybe this may last for a hot second" (I say that because the first episode aired on Halloween). I was wrong on two levels: first, it's AMC, second, when you have a great storyline to work with and a great director/

I'm learning two things about when I want to blog on a news topic. First: wait until the incident plays itself out and second: look at the whole scenario and not just an "Polaroid" snapshot of what's going down. Yesterday the pastor in Florida decided not to burn the Koran on September 11 in regards to a meeting that "may" or "may not" have happened in regards to relocating the Mosque that will

I can't believe I'm sad that Vox is no longer going to be around after September 30. This is not in a bad way I'm saying this I just mean I've met some really cool people through Vox. To me Vox was the "nicer" version of Facebook. I first heard about when I peeped in on my twitter account checking tweets aimed at me and there it was from my photo sis @Liv_Luv_Diamond, "@myloveformusic2 @

Maybe I've been drinking the Apple Kool-Aid for far to long. Usually when I see a new update for iTunes I wait for a week or two before updating and to be honest I really do not need to update because I still have the 5th gen iPod and the iPod mini. I don't have an iPod Touch or an iPhone and I know I will get a new iPod and invest in a iPod Touch and iPhone but I decided to dive in download it

It's only been 3 days but it feels like a lifetime not twittering and I mean this a good way. For me it's like ideas are flowing again and it's a beautiful thing when it comes go blogging. For a long time it took me a while to drink the "Twitter/Facebook" kool-aid and when I finally did I fell hard, really hard. So hard that I spent so much time on twitter where it was addictive. So I made up my

I've come to the conclusion that in order to make it in customer service you need to have the attitude like Dr. House, 95% of customers are rude and crude. Customers are spoiled. Customers say with their mouth that they are happy to speak to someone that speaks English and then proceeds to talk to customer service reps like they are lower than a pregnant snail.

There are some things no one ever can influence me to do. Growing up in my hometown where I was surrounded by drugs, I had friends who did drugs who would joke, "One day dude we're going to hold you down and make you take a hit of this." That would never happen because, well, of my size, they knew I would beat them pulp out of them. But then there are things that no matter how I fight it I can't

I have to admit my current job I complained and complained. Complained so much I became a whiner when I became a whiner I began to focus on what I had to do and not be appreciative of what I had around me...my home.

But it was a great starter blogging platform and to be honest I have learned so much when it comes to cutting and pasting code for widgets, how to resize them, how to mess around with HTML (just a little) and to honest it's been

This is why I don't watch the NFL. I just read the article on how Dallas Cowboy's Keith Brooking was upset with Brett Farve and the Vikings because he felt Minnesota ran the score up.

This came from a customer who did not know the zip code to where they were, did not know the city to where they were, when you told them the hours of the branch they thought the branch kept "silly" hours...and I'm the one that don't like customer service.

When First rolling out of bed get on my needs to give thanx to my Lord and Savior, to speak to God and to LISTEN to him while in prayer and throughout the day. Start back reading my devotionals, reading the passages and read a chapter of proverbs each day. With my work hours begin going to bed a decent time...limit my time when it comes to television and on the internet during my work week.

I have to admit I have become a HUGE fan of NCIS. Sometimes I have run a little behind heading to the night gig in reference to this show. I love the ensemble, I don't know what happened but I am so sucked in to this show.One of the things I'm trying to hunt down is Mark Harmon's character Gibbs 50 Rules. Someone will post all them one day (maybe I should go to CBS website to see if they're over

This morning was really interesting because I came across a handful of topics that I wish to comment on but I will try and tackle one a day because if I don't this would be a very long post so let me begin with this topic... 1.

"Use it before you Lose it". I've always known this saying to be true but today I was put to the the test. As you know I am in the process of trying to convert all of my audio book cassettes to digital and when I came across one of my favorite men of God, Chuck Swindoll(I have one of his audio books, "Living Above The Level Of Mediocrity".

I'm thankful that I have a part time job at night but that's not cutting it. I have filled out application after application. I thought I would never hear myself say this but I am tired of being home doing the day. I have come to find out about myself is
