04 VGA wall outlets
Here's a great idea: pump VGA throughout the facility -
new VGA Video over Cat 5 Extender Transmitter and Receiver

cost-effective alternative to video extension systems that
rely on proprietary cable and connectors

09 15 secret iPhone tips and tricks
Some of these are more secret than others, but would be good
to know if you have an iPhone.
The author says,
"While most of these are in the iPhone User Guide if you
dig around, I'd say they're useful enough to deserve a
mention in their own right. (By the way, most of these
tips also work on the iPod touch.)"

10 64 Things Every Geek Should Know
Blair Mathis posted this on LaptopLogic.com last spring.
It is quite a check list of things to know if you want to be
a Geek. A few of them, I know, but several I don't even have
any desire to learn. So regardless of what my friends
think, I don't guess I am one.

11 Quotes: Emerson, Johnson
"It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life
that no man can sincerely try to help another
without helping himself."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
"We must remember that one determined person
can make a significant difference, and that
a small group of determined people
can change the course of history."
- Sonia Johnson
