it really sucks major donkey balls when you have a unique idea that you think could really work and be fun to do and there are just to many bridges that need to be crossed first ... all of which take money you don't have.

Doc Searls :: "I remember realizing, at about age sixteen or younger, that I would never know everything, and that I should always stay curious about the world and open to facts that challenge my opinions. One might think that this would get harder as one gets older, but it doesn't. It gets easier.

We need our opinions, our certitudes, our belief systems. Can't get along without them. But even belief systems need new information. Being right is overrated. Being open is essential if we wish to grow as human beings. At any age".

Sometimes I just want a place to slap the simple thoughts that come into my head. They don't always have to do with technology but sometimes about society and life in general. This is also a useful way to check out a new service and see if it really serves a purpose.
