Holy cow, maybe I should apply for this job. I think it's more than I made at my first few jobs.

I can't say this manual inspires trust in Monoprice's USB 3 hard drive adaptor. It starts off bad and goes downhill from there.

This demo of Glass is insane.  I'd really like to get the opportunity to jump out of the zepplin over SF.

Moon is a terrific movie (it's about the Moon!) and the fact you can watch it free on YouTube is totally awesome.

Find Classmates and Colleagues on Google+
https://plus.google.com/circles/find

Did you know that you can find classmates and colleagues on Google+ in the Circle Editor, based on information from your profile? If you have a profile that lists your employment or education, you can find other friends on Google+ and add them to your circles.

Go to https://plus.google.com/circles/find and find your school or place of work in the menu under "All Suggestions". If you display dates of when you attended school, or held down a role, others attending at the same time as you did will rise to the top. Go forth and circle.

It's true. I can't go shopping at a brick and mortar store, even for something mundane, without also looking at the Amazon reviews.

Kudos Mozilla team! I just wasted 10 minutes (at work) playing BrowserQuest :)

It's amazing what can be done in HTML5 these days. Brilliant work.

I got the helmet, the axe and the magical firefox potion :)

Rearrange photos and move photos between albums

Hi, I’m +Isaac Sparrow an Engineer on the Google+ Photos team.

Rearranging photos and moving them between albums are two of our top feature requests. Today, we’re excited to launch an album organizer so you can better tell the story of your photos.

To get started, open one of your albums and select Organize album from the Options menu. With the album organizer you can:

Sort photos by time: Click Order by date to sort all photos in the album by the photo date, from earliest to latest. Click it again to sort them from latest to earliest.

Reorder your photos: Select the photos you want to reorder and drag them to their new position in the album. You can also move selected photos to the start or end of the album by clicking Move totop... more »

I went skiing this weekend at Kirkwood and they had some runs with fun names: Ditch of Doom and Trench of Terror. It made me think of other good names for ski terrain:

Cliff of Calamity
Ridge of Ruin
Gully of Grief
Ditch of Despair
Ravine of Regret
Slope of Sadness

Any others?

#protip #circles

Do you want an overview of who is in what circle? We've added a new sort mode on the circles page that groups people and pages by circles. Just go to the Relevance menu when viewing "Your Circles" and change the sort to Circles.

Google+ Circles: cleaner look & feel, better suggestions
#googleplusupdate #circles

The Circles page is great for customizing your existing connections, as well as discovering new ones, and today we're excited to roll out improvements along both dimensions.

First, you'll notice that Circles are nicer to look at, and much easier to use, including:

- A new left-hand navigation menu
- Quick access to your email address book(s)
- Circles that shrink in size on smaller screens

Second, and building on earlier work by +Simon Tong, +Jeff Dean and +Sanjay Ghemawat (http://goo.gl/1fhF1), we've made lots of improvements to "Find People." Simply type the name of a person or page you're interested in, and we'll suggest related individuals and organizations to add to your circles.... more »

A great panorama of Mori point (near Pacifica) taken with my Galaxy Nexus. +Todd Nagengast sort of photobombed my panorama, but I'm very pleased with how it came out. A fun hike too, even if we didn't see any gray whales.

The scale model of Shanghai at the incomparably obsessive Shanghai Urban Planning Exhibition Center. This scale model of the city was correct down to the smallest detail--no mean feat in a city that changes as much in a year as Shanghai.
