11 Comments Google ChromeOS Digital Comic Book Reader
Ever reach into your coat pocket and find $20? Whenever that happens to me I feel like I just found a little treasure. It’s a cup of coffee, lunch and a car wash. But when I was a kid, it was a stack of new comic books.

3 Comments Gaming the Cloud
So you’ve got this whole ‘cloud’ thing going for productivity, maybe even a little social networking, and if you’ve been really adventurous you’ve managed to get your feet wet with hulu.
“What about gaming?” is the cry I hear from my inner(and outer)-nerd. “All this is great, but I wanna pop some heads!”
