Seeing “Henry V”

Due to the interventions of a redditor, I managed to see Henry V (aka one Shakespeare’s meddlesome “histories”) at the Irondale Ensemble Project, in Brooklyn, near BAM, this past Saturday night.  They specialize in ensemble theater, which has its pluses (a small variety of actors playing a wide variety of roles) and its minuses( a small [...]

Quora as the new search paradigm

Recently, there has been a lot of talk about usuability and Quora, most famously David Pogue complaining about the usability of the “search/question” box.  This concept has been tweeted around a bit, and I think it misses the point on the state of content and seach.  One of the state paradigms surounding Quora is that [...]

Can You Hear Me Now?

I was at the doctor today. (I’m fine, it was a physical, or as I say, a proof I exist/am alive meeting.) I don’t use an Iphone/Ipod/Ipod Touch.  However, it struck me that I was listening to a lot of music recently, so I asked for a hearing test. My hearing is fine (thank goodness). [...]
