Will IBM Buy Sun??
Will IBM buy Sun? Something called Open Cloud Computing is in the conversation. 1480 stories about iPhone cut and paste. A new flying car in the news. Dinosaurs found with fuzz on them. Amazon sued over Kindle. New Fujitsu reader comes along. Psystar does new Apple clone. Cranky Geeks does a good take on AMD-Intel suit. Meanwhile AMD server chips beat Intel.

USB Finger Drive?
There should be some sort of award for this level of geekery.
A programmer in Finland lost his finger in a motorcycle accident and had it replaced with a 2GB USB drive. For more see this article at PC World.

Using Twitter To Post Your Facebook Status
Very often (but not all the time) I’d like to post one of my Twitter tweets to my Facebook status. In the past I would copy and paste the status to both places manually. But I always wanted it to be easier than that. Last week I figured out how. I found a way to post the same status to Twitter and Facebook without the need to go to a third party site every time I wanted to do it. Now all I need to do is add the #fb hashtag to the end of my tweet.
Setting this up is quite simple. Just install the Selective Twitter Status app on Facebook. To do this use the following steps.
- Go to Selective Twitter Status.
- Enter your Twitter username in the provided box and click the save button.
- When the “Allow Access” box appears click the “Allow” button.
- In the “Allow Status Updates from Selective Twitter Status?” box click the “Allow Status Updates” button.
That’s all there is to it. From now on whenever you want a tweet to be used as your Facebook status just add the #fb hashtag to the end of your tweet. There will be a delay of a minute or two between the time you post your tweet and the time it appears as your status. But this is the simplest way to selectively use a Twitter status as a Facebook status.
