Solid State Wut?

If Corsair can produce a 64GB USB flash drive that’s the size of my finger why can’t Dell or Acer or any laptop maker throw three or four of these puppies into a laptop. And what’s with the 8GB solid state drives? I can’t do much with that.

On the laptop note… when am I going to finally get my dual screen laptop? I want a 14″ laptop that has dual touch screens where one replaces the keyboards we now use. It should also fold flat and click together like a tentpole so I can use it as one big tablet. I’d create some illustrations but my non-touchscreen laptop would take too long. I wonder if there’s a WordPress plugin for sketches to an image…

Still here

No, I’m not dead. I was in Europe for four months and didn’t have much of interest to post ;)

Alberta’s 50 Most Influential People

My good friend Timo Ewalds was mentioned as one of Alberta’s 50 Most Influential People by Alberta Venture this week.

Timo Ewalds
Nexopia Creator
MySpace? My wha’? Facebook? So over it. If you have a teenager, chances are they’ve drifted from other social networking sites to Nexopia.com. Since its launch six years ago, more than 1.2 million 14- to 20-year-olds have made the switch. Oh, and did we mention founder Ewalds started developing Nexopia.com while he was still in an Edmonton high school? Early this year the site received a multimillion- dollar injection from Hubert Burda Media, one of Germany’s largest media companies, which was, like, so cool.

I’ve known Timo since late 2003, a few months after he started Nexopia. A big congrats to your success, Timo!
