Google Plus beta

Posted by Scott at 11:59 PM

Good morning! It's been a busy one for me. I stopped for a quick breakfast downtown and then drove into the office. I listened to a bit of TWiG #102 and then synced up with my dad the rest of the way. Since Michelle is feeling better, she's likely going to take the kids out to a lake today for some more sun, sand, and swimming. 11:02am

Amazon gets to use "App Store". 2:19pm

Cute! Andy Ihnatko makes an obscure reference to NH's Canobie Lake amusement park in his latest SunTimes article. (related link) 4:22pm

Left work on the late side. Listened to Security Now #308 on the way home. When I got home the family had a great time at Greenfield State Park. The boys had touches of sunburn where their sunblock had worn off. I did some updates on Michelle's Linux Mint Netbook over dinner and did a few experiments with Timothy. Got the boys tucked in bed with their prayers. Go to the Google Plus web siteMichelle is discussing her new malignancy with my aunt, the family nurse who also had breast cancer many years ago. 9:36pm

Finally got to kick the tires on Google Plus tonight. After a small bit of tinkering, got the video "hangout" feature working. Soon I'll have to see what it's like with the native Google Plus app on my Android phone. I'd also like to understand if there's any possible linkage between Google Buzz and Google Plus, since they're both social networking type tools. But for now I have to get some rest. I have more GPU tests to write tomorrow... 10:13pm
