Ponderings 6/3/12


1. Was anyone else confused when they saw a trailer for a new Spider Man movie with new actors and costumes?

2. It's not beneficial to anyone when people nod and pretend to understand something when they don't. I am starting to be trained to interpret a head nod as signifying the person does not understand.


3. Homeless people should conduct surveys on different products and receive some kind of reimbursement by companies based on the number of replies they receive.

4. My experiment with Twitter has been going strong so I have decided its time to experiment and become more active on Quora.

5. I love all the new video conferencing technologies, but there is still a current need for simple cell phone conference calls to have an easy app for voting and text messaging group.

6. I am waiting for the day of automated secretaries. A V1 secretary would be able to do the following:
A. Plan meetings including all email responses, and logistic reservations once you select the people you need to meet with.
B. Respond to another automated secretary trying to setup a meeting.
C. Notify and try to move meeting conflicts.
D. Send you an email every morning telling you how awesome you are.
E. Emailing a random contact each day, kicking off a catch up conversation.

7. In addition to showing me, the forecast details, weather apps should display an icon of what you should be wearing that day. (I.E. How thick of a jacket, short/pants, etc.)
