A Techie Morning In My Google Reader

I have just let this blog evolve. I purposely didn’t write a tight description because to be honest I couldn’t rely upon myself to stick to one theme. Calling it a blog about ‘Life’ was as close as I could get.

Now that I am some way down the road though I can look at the content and see that it reflects more or less what my business life is about. I love techie things but am passionate about applying the cutting edge tech stuff with my real interest – healthy body and mind and self improvement of any kind.

I also notice that there is little about my domestic life – which is not deliberate as I am fairly open about all areas of my life – so maybe I will weave in a few more personal posts over the coming months.

But not today…..

Now we have been trying to decide when to upgrade Adam’s website to the latest version of WordPress – I must admit I am nervous as it is such a large site. We have stalled because a new version is due out later this month and is in beta testing at the moment. So it was great to come across a great description of the new WordPress and what is in store – thank you Technosailor:

GOOGLE VOICE APP
Always there at the cutting edge and a real gadget freak is one of my favourite online personalities Ed Dale. I saw an article the other day about Googles new voice activation search for the iPhone and so it was great to see Ed putting the technology through it’s paces with his Australian drawl. If Ed can make that voice activation work anyone can.

What will the next 24 hours throw up in my Google Reader – 24 hours is a long time on the Internet and who knows. That is the excitement I get from this media.
