(This might interest) Maybe Just Me…

there’s an article in today’s ny times about online data storage services etc. and there was that story a few weeks back of the ridiculous amounts of pictures people keep in the digicam age. and one of the current big things in OS wars is searching (spotlight, longhorn, google desktop, etc) quickly and having less file structure, but being able to get to information quickly even if you don’t know where you saved it. all this got me thinking this morning, isn’t it just too much? i mean do we really need to keep 40 pics of 1 minutes worth of action of whatever we’re taking pictures of? and if we do, is it a good or bad thing that software companies are trying to make it so we can find things easier, at the expence of keeping things organized. i mean, my pics on my computer are in no way organized. well they are semi-organized, but not really. but is it better that i have no organization because i can rely on spotlight? or should OSes or search tools be designed to really help people by requiring more organization. because at the end of the day one of the reasons you can’t find a pic of little johnny out of the 45 gigs of pics you have on your box is because it’s all so unorganized. just a thought.

Secret to wedded bliss — saying sorry - Peculiar Postings - MSNBC.com

not sad that these people have been married 80 years. not sad that these people are both 100 or older. but sad that a man who is 105 and been married to the same woman for 80 years says his secret to marital bliss is saying “yes dear.” don’t most men strive to not be the guy saying “yes dear” to the dominant wife? i mean it’s the stereotypical image: guy holding his wife’s bag having to agree “yes dear” to everything she says! haha
