If you&#8217;ve been logged into Google since October 26, 2009, you might have noticed your search results displaying a little differently. Since last fall, Google&#8217;s been experimenting with a feature they&#8217;re calling Social Search [...]]]></description>

For countless hours throughout the day, I find myself daydreaming and pondering on what I would ultimately love to achieve in life. I&#8217;m fascinated by stories of successful people overcoming adversity and other overused phrases to become amazing individuals who have actualized their potential.
Over time, I&#8217;ve come to recognize that you can&#8217;t just sit and [...]]]></description>

When it comes to anything technology-related, I tend to be an ardent early adopter, typically to the point of personal identity pollution across the web. Sometimes, however, a service finds its way to critical mass and I see an audience larger than my Dunbar number begin to use it.

I kept my 2G around, so I still qualify for the price points announced at the keynote earlier this afternoon, but I feel really bad for anyone trying to upgrade from a 3G. Not cool. :\
