My wife just told my about a conversation she had with my daughter the other day. When our TV comes on in the living room, the channel that immediately shows defaults to the last one watched. Then from there we can choose which HDMI input or Netflix show to watch. Usually we have some external [...]]]> http://robproject.com/blog/2012/05/a-commercial-free-existence-almost/feed/ 0 http://robproject.com/blog/2011/10/the-trouble-with-thor/ http://robproject.com/blog/2011/10/the-trouble-with-thor/#comments Sat, 08 Oct 2011 21:47:57 +0000 rgoodwin http://robproject.com/blog/2011/10/the-trouble-with-thor/
I just rented the movie Thor, from Redbox,  for my older kids.  Here are my thoughts in case you haven’t seen it yet.

They sweeten these soft drinks with stevia and I’m sure they are outstanding. I just saw a coupon ad in the paper today [...]]]> http://robproject.com/blog/2011/08/cola-sugar-stevia-zevia/feed/ 0 http://robproject.com/blog/2011/03/nobody-is-calling-anyone-anymore/ http://robproject.com/blog/2011/03/nobody-is-calling-anyone-anymore/#comments Sun, 13 Mar 2011 20:23:00 +0000 rgoodwin http://robproject.com/blog/2011/03/nobody-is-calling-anyone-anymore/
With the new technologies out there, actual phone conversations seem like they are going away for good.  I have a teen-aged boy. He has a phone, but I’ve only seen him actually ‘talking’ on it once or twice.  For some reason, texting is a far better alternative for him and most others.  And Text he [...]]]> http://robproject.com/blog/2011/03/nobody-is-calling-anyone-anymore/feed/ 0 http://robproject.com/blog/2011/03/privacy-vs-convenience-how-we-enable-data-mining/ http://robproject.com/blog/2011/03/privacy-vs-convenience-how-we-enable-data-mining/#comments Sat, 12 Mar 2011 19:57:00 +0000 rgoodwin http://robproject.com/blog/2011/03/privacy-vs-convenience-how-we-enable-data-mining/ http://robproject.com/blog/2011/03/privacy-vs-convenience-how-we-enable-data-mining/feed/ 1
