I kept seeing a reflection of my hands in the reflective DELL logo on my monitor and it was making me thing something in my dock was bouncing in my peripheral vision.
It was driving me stark raving mad.
The solution?
Scotch tape and a receipt from Flying Biscuit!!!
Great Article about Starting Up in Atlanta
I just stumbled across this article in my TwitterStream..
http://www.inc.com/guides/2010/07/how-to-find-commercial-real-estate-in-atlanta.html
It’s a pretty good article that covers a lot of the dimensions of starting a business in Atlanta. It has a few issues though…
- The title of the web page says “How to find Commercial Real Estate in Atlanta” and so does the URL. Doesn’t anybody go back and fix that during editing?
- The navigation inside the article says there are 4 pages but when I clicked on page 4 I got a page with no content - just navigation and ads.
- The article talks about restaurants and technology startups. It seems like those 2 types of companies have drastically different needs to me. Maybe the article should have focused on one type?
- In the middle of reading page 3 my browser leaped to a different page on the site with a bunch of random garbage on it. Some kind of SEO black hole page maybe? Very confusing.
Mobile Banking Should Be Easier w/ Android
I just opened an account with Suntrust a couple of weeks ago and I was checking out the “mobile banking” options on their website.
Unfortunately, to get the right “app” you have to tell them which wireless provider you use and what model phone you have.
Well, T-mobile wasn’t listed so I lied and said I used AT+T. Then, of course, the myTouch3G wasn’t listed so I said I had an HTC. That page said my download would begin shortly and it gave me a confirmation code. Hmm…
So I guess because I didn’t really have AT+T that the download thing was destined to fail. I decide to do a search for “suntrust” in the Android Market and VOILA! A mobile banking app!
I downloaded the app, entered the confirmation code (so glad I left that page open) and it worked.
That would have been so much easier if they had just said “Oh, if you have an Android phone, scan this QR code.”
Don’t ya think?
You’re wrong to tell me I’m wrong to say you’re wrong!
I’m tempted to write a long post that gets into some controversial topics but I think I just haven’t had enough caffeine today and I’m itching for a fight.
Social Music
is rdio too social? is Pandora social enough?
I hooked my Pandora favorites up to friendfeed which gets tweeted. that’s only one way though.
your thoughts?
“ Once, my friend Simon was rushed to hospital to have his appendix removed and I visited him the next day to find his bed empty. I immediately sacrificed a goat and burnt a witch in his name but it turned out that he had not had appendicitis, just needed a good poo, and was at home playing Playstation. ”
