Googlegeek - The Times are Changing


My name is Ron Hall.
I live at the Funny Farm.

Went to a Bryan Adams (Canadian Bruce Springsteen) concert last night. Acoustical. Was great - at renovated Fox Theatre.

When I do presentations I often ask how many people were born after 1976, then I tell them that I graduated from college that year and that Bill Gates was still at Harvard (Bryan Adams was just getting started). My attempt at trying to put some perspective in our culture's involvement with computers and the web. Just noted that Google turned 11 years old yesterday - my daughter is 13 - part of generation "G" (you heard it here first).

Doing a Google Earth presentation this Friday evening - at a small old time theatre in a littlr town named Soap Lake (WA). Bet they never thought the theatre would host an internet/computer based presentation when it was built. Now it has WIFI.

The times they are a changing. By the way, Bryan Adams was headed up to Calgary, Alberta, today - supposed to perform for the Dali Lama. Told us he will sing "Imagine" by John Lennon.

Got to go. Make it a good day.

Imagine....
