This article from PC Magazine's ExtremeTech site points to a free solution for creating a personal VPN. If you keep your home PC locked-down and free from virii, trojans and other malware, you'll be a lot more secure than using the default connection to the net. The article points to, and contains instructions for using software from Hamachi.

Here's an article from Slate.com that explores why some hotels offer free internet access while other charge varying fees.

PC Magazine has an interesting round-up of Text-Messaging (SMS) services. Synfonic is new to me, but their SMS Wi-Fi finder service looks promising.

This Sony VGN-70 is one piece of hardware I'd really like to get my hands on. The power of a laptop in the palm of your hands is such an appealing concept to me. Add an HUD (heads up display) that integrates into eyeglasses/sunglasses and solve the pesky input-while-mobile issue and I'd be good to go, geek-wise.

Yes, it's been a very long time since my last post. Trying to make PluggedInns.com profitable has been my sole focus for more than a year now. Hopefully I be able to start finding time to keep up-to-date here as well.

In the area of Florida where I live, thousands of people cross Tampa Bay via causeways and bridges every day. And if there's a traffic jam, it can add hours to their communte. With the Gibbs Aquada, they could just drive into the bay to bypass the tie-up and be home in time for dinner.

Airline Intercom Announcements #20 A plane was taking off from Kennedy Airport. After it reached a comfortable cruising altitude, the captain made an announcement over the intercom. "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Welcome to Flight number 293, nonstop from New York to Los Angeles. The weather ahead is good and, therefore, we should have a smooth and uneventful flight.

I want these glasses. Not soon, right NOW. Please! I have been imagining something like this for the past two years. Imagine never worrying about having enough space for opening your laptop on the airplane tray table. The PC will be in your pocket (or overhead bin), the monitor, webcam and earphones in your glasses and your peripherals nearby. You won't have to lug around all the extra

The beta of Google Toolbar version 2 is available. If you're using Blogger, the "blog this" button is a tremendous time saver. Took me a bit to figure out that it was working. There's no visible indication that anything is happening. You have to log on to Blogger.com after using it. Then you'll see your "blog bookmarks" in the Posts tab. From here you can edit and/or publish your post.

Verizon's JetConnect isn't as 'cool' as the Boeing system currently being developed and installed, but it's a close second. With the ability to send SMS and run IM clients, it'd sure be cheaper than using the voice Airphone for keeping in touch while in flight.

Priority Pass seems to make a lot of sense, unless I'm missing something. My employer encourages economic travel, so I can't always fly with a single airline to maximize points towards club membership. With this program, looks like I could use a participating lounge in the major aiports, no matter what airline I'm flying
