Rust-oleum makes parenting easier with NeverWet November 8, 2013 10:36 am
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Of Interest, TechnologyThis will be a great addition to baby deliveries. As soon as the newborn is delivered, spray the child down with NeverWet and parenting becomes so much easier!
Small child won’t wake up in the middle of the night to do its business? No problem! Spray those sheets with NeverWet!
Kid doesn’t know how to swim? No worries! Remember that when it was born you coated it in NeverWet. Throw the child in the lake! Swim lessons complete.
Anti-rape Shorts November 5, 2013 9:39 am
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Clothing, Of Interest, TechnologyThis is a brilliant piece of technology for clothing! As both a flaw and a feature, if the woman becomes drunk, she cannot take the shorts off herself…which will result in some rather wet pants after a few pints.

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : News, Of InterestWith the current state of paywalls and news organizations, I am pretty sure I could grab a handful of journalist students from a university and put a hurt on the Boston Globe or Scripps Newspapers such as the Knoxnews. Yes, you read that correctly. I believe am amateur hack like me plus a handful of inexperienced young journalists could take on the major publishers and win.
Why? Because they have forgotten their core business is delivering news! And don’t whine to me about monetization. Or that I don’t understand the challenges of funding a news business because from the looks of it the big organizations don’t know how either! I’ll rest my case with this screen capture of Boston.com. Look closely for the story. There is none! Why? Probably because I’m not logged in. All it shows is a tabloidish title "Builders of Obama’s health website saw red flags" designed to drawn in pageviews then a webpage full of links to social networks, unrelated articles, and a couple of ads. This is not news:

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Humor, Of Interest, TV / MoviesRIP Google Latitude August 9, 2013 4:47 pm
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Announcements, Of InterestI loved the concept of a mapping service that would show me where my friends and family were in real time. In use though, it never really worked so I’m not surprised to see Google shutdown Latitude. I’m still disappointed. I saw such opportunity. Perhaps Waze will make up for it.
