Google’s Solar Vision
Posted in ENERGY, GEEKDOM, HEH on November 27, 2007 | Comments Off
Larry Page blogs today: …Our goal is to build 1 gigawatt of renewable energy capacity that is cheaper than coal. We are optimistic that this can be done within years, not decades. If we succeed, it would likely provide a path to replacing a substantial portion of the world’s electricity needs with renewable energy sources. [...]

Android Schwartz Dalvic
Posted in GEEKDOM, HEH, SHINY, TELECOM on November 14, 2007 | Comments Off
This should get interesting. On one hand you have Jonathan Schwartz saying this on his blog. On the other you have Google’s Android and their Dalvic VM. Looks like the lawyers (perhaps, heh) and Java programmers are the winners, perhaps all of us as well. Google’s Dalvik VM gives something for everyone, I love it [...]
