Late Rants: Oh My God! The Internet is Overwhelming... Again
http://laterants.blogspot.com/2007/08/oh-my-god-internet-is-overwhelming.html
When my day ends and inspiration strikes, I come here to vest my thoughts. Wednesday, August 29, 2007. The Internet is Overwhelming. Again. I am not the first to say it, but I will say it louder. The Internet is completely overloaded! For web portals, Yahoo! Or Google for search engines, Expedia or Travelocity for travel. But today, it is a sea of options that seems to have no end, and apparently, this is just the beginning. On the one side we are getting incredible web applications developed, and compan...

Late Rants: That was quite the break!
http://laterants.blogspot.com/2011/12/that-was-quite-break.html
When my day ends and inspiration strikes, I come here to vest my thoughts. Sunday, December 4, 2011. That was quite the break! Mea culpa. the sites were launched in November and are still one of my proudest accomplishment (even though we weren't able to launch a mobile version until almost a year after). Check them out if you haven't:. Yes, some tweaks have been added over the past three years, but the sites are by large still carrying some of the blood shed during those months of re-invention (okay, I m...

Late Rants: The Personal Computer Has Ceased to Exist
http://laterants.blogspot.com/2007/08/personal-computer-has-ceased-to-exist.html
When my day ends and inspiration strikes, I come here to vest my thoughts. Monday, August 27, 2007. The Personal Computer Has Ceased to Exist. I am baffled at the nascent web applications that are simply creating virtual working spaces, thus enabling users to work seamlessly anywhere they go. Personalization is no longer in the machine you are using (at home, office, or school), but on the Internet, allowing users to carry their persona wherever they go. But, why would anyone replicate a computer desktop?

Late Rants: Locations Aware Service
http://laterants.blogspot.com/2012/01/locations-aware-service.html
When my day ends and inspiration strikes, I come here to vest my thoughts. Saturday, January 28, 2012. Add machine to machine (M2M) to the mix and we are looking at the evolution from Location Based Services to something that could be dubbed Location Aware Services. The subtle difference meaning these are technologies cooperating to offer functionality once they become aware of the user's location (rather than simply offering information). How do companies that empower these services stand to benefit one...

Late Rants: Late Perspective on CES
http://laterants.blogspot.com/2012/01/late-perspective-on-ces.html
When my day ends and inspiration strikes, I come here to vest my thoughts. Sunday, January 22, 2012. Late Perspective on CES. CES is a couple of weeks over, and the Internet is filled with articles about the best of, worse of, and trends; but it is never too late to put in my fifty cents. While I didn't get to see as much or attend as many conferences as I would have liked, it was still a very exciting time. My biggest take away: connected TVs are the next frontier. The geek award of the show goes to the...

Late Rants: June 2007
http://laterants.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
When my day ends and inspiration strikes, I come here to vest my thoughts. Monday, June 4, 2007. The Social Networks Phenomena. Ever since the Internet made its way to the vast masses, it has managed to wow us with its ever evolving technology. Many have been able to turn their ideas into reality (some more successfully than others) making available for the masses an universe of online tools on every imaginable category. Saturday, June 2, 2007. YouTube will be the end of conventional Television. NOT!

Late Rants: Is Entertainment On the Go Real?
http://laterants.blogspot.com/2012/01/is-entertainment-on-go-real.html
When my day ends and inspiration strikes, I come here to vest my thoughts. Sunday, January 29, 2012. Is Entertainment On the Go Real? As I finish up packing for my flight to Calgary tomorrow, I wonder if entertainment is as portable as we all seem to think? Yes, of course I will be bringing iPhone, iPad, and laptop, but the question is; how much do they contribute to my entertainment once there is no connectivity? The future holds some advancements around connectivity with Wi-Fi coming to trains, planes,...
