“My priorities are where I spend my time. I need to adjust. As of June 1, 2009, I am taking an online social sabbatical. For a while, I will not be doing any online social networking, blogging, tweeting, commenting, replying, etc. I will still do emails and text messages. So, if you want or need [...]

Just thought I’d mention that the KG Finals shoes are only $1017.00. Yeah, I’ll take just 2 or 3. NOT! This is just a silly, stupid thing! I hope nobody buys any and they find something better to do with their money and time. Like I said, silly and stupid, [...]

I just added this as my Facebook status. “Toby is quagmire laden, feeling morose, exhausted, refreshed, enlightened, verbose, confused, capable, smart, hungry, thirsty, and finally some enchanted melancholy.”

best slippery slope ever
“Why shouldn’t I work for the N.S.A.? That’s a tough one, but I’ll take a shot. Say I’m working at N.S.A. Somebody puts a code on my desk, something nobody else can break. Maybe I take a shot at it and maybe I break it. And I’m real happy with myself, ’cause [...]

I have been following a lot of information for several years now. I do that with blogs, with RSS feeds, with alerts, with email newsletters, with a few hard copy magazine subscriptions, with some journals, and also a lot with listening in whatever way possible.
I’ve come to some conclusions.
I can change the world.
Everyone has the [...]

What’d I say?
UPDATE: It took from October 28th until November 11th for MySpace to finally delete my account. This was/is status quo for them. I often made changes or tried to use their built in features that simply did not work, or they took many days for the changes to take place, often over-writing the [...]

Official Google Reader Blog: “We found it!”
The Google Reader Team just improved my experience reading blogs and following various RSS feeds – again. They did it this time by adding search.
Go figure, Google added search.
Well, it is unique in that it lets me search through the many feeds that I already follow, not [...]

Robert Scoble is taking a break from blogging. This is not a surprise. Anyone who blogs a lot has this stage hit them about once a year. They realize life is more important than just what they happen to spend a lot of time doing. They also realize that changing where they spend time affects [...]

Hey Robert~
I just left a comment on one of your recent posts. I also recently took a break from blogging and reading blogs. Upon my return, it’s no surprise that of all the blogs I ready, yours had the most posts.
However, I’m sick of hearing about Twitter and Facebook. I think you’re more creative than [...]

I recently took a break from blogging (both writing and reading). To put this into perspective, I follow about 160 blogs. About half of those are very much work related. I was probably spending about an hour per day reading and maybe another hour per day writing my own blog posts or responding to others.
(If anyone is paranoid [...]

This time it happens to be my younger brother, Tim. And, I do not envy his injury. Tim, our prayers are with you for quick healing.
Fortunately, I got to see his game last week. Unfortunately, there will not be any more. I can relate to ending my competitive basketball career about 6 or so years [...]
