Right now I’m playing with the “circles” on the uber-new Google Plus (Google+) using the Google Chrome browser (of course!) and I’m running the experimental Google Chromium OS (operating system) on a Mac!

I guess Google Plus isn’t quite ready for prime time. Pity, it looked pretty awesome. Briefly.

Google search now in SSL
I was in a coffee shop, connecting to the web via a wifi connection and noticed that Google redirected me to a secure connection (HTTPS) for my searches. Pretty neat, if you’re paranoid about privacy. Which I can’t say that I am, but cool anyway.

Google's new +1 Button

What do you think?

http://www.google.com/ 1/button/

A Google “me too” of Facebook Like? Too geeky? A win for advertisers? I’m having some doubts.

Google or DropBox? Or both?

I’m torn. I use Google Apps. I use DropBox. I love ‘em both.

I also have gigs of photos, docs and music I’d like to backup online.

DropBox is $99 per year for 50 gigs.

Google is $20 for 80 gigs. Or for the same price as DropBox ($100) I’d get 400 gigs on Google!

But DropBox syncs so nicely. (Except that I can’t specify to not sync via 3G!)

And the DropBox UI is so nice. And it integrates right into your file system.

But we use Google Picasa at home, and it plays nicely with Google’s cloud storage. And we use Google Apps at work, so sharing would be easier. And we now have User Managed Storage on Google - which beats giving everyone equal disk quotas which they don’t all use at the same rate…

Arrghh! Come on Google, just buy DropBox and mash ‘em together.

Facebook Books $1.86B in 2010 Advertising Revenue; Muscles In on Google Turf

This post is mostly for the benefit of my less tech-savvy friends and family who think Facebook “makes no money”…

Well, they apparently took in $1.86 billion in worldwide advertising revenue for 2010. Facebook generated $1.86 billion in worldwide advertising revenue for 2010.

Article here

Not too shabby, hey, Nige? Ja, but I here Google also doesn’t make any money, since it’s free, right?

zen bones...

Steve Mathew's Blog

Steve avatar

Follow @SteveMathew

OK, so why the zen bones thing?

About 20 years ago I stumbled upon a book called "Zen Flesh, Zen Bones". Being vegetarian - the "flesh" bit didn't grab me, but the short pithy Zen stories inside it, did.

Ever since then my web nick has been zenbones, my Hotmail, my Gmail address, you name it. It's kinda stuck.

Is the blog about Zen? Nope.
