New techy stuff

I have been playing around with some new geeky stuff lately.

I have been addicted to Twitter for a few weeks now. I have no idea why it is so cool, but so far I just can't go a whole day without adding a few posts on what I am doing. I have it linked to my mobile phone so I simply send a text message and it gets instantly added to Twitter. Easy.

Microsoft's folder synchronization tool Live Mesh is pretty cool too. It allows you to keep your files synced across all of your computers. It also serves as an online storage for your files. I haven't seen Google's cloud storage offering yet, but so far this one is pretty slick.

Gmail Logo Found on Store Sign

I was driving home today when I saw this gem:


That M there at the beginning is an exact copy of the Gmail logo. I thought that was pretty striking, but what makes it even better is that this store specializes in providing mailing supplies and shipping services.

Is it legal? Who knows. Pretty cool nonetheless.

Graduation

As of today I am an official Lamar University graduate. I am a professional. Thats pretty scary huh?

So hows this for awesome: I graduated with a 3.37 GPA. If I put that as the first bullet point of my resume it will be:

1. 3.37 GPA

Yeah thats right. I have a 1337 GPA. All that time not doing homework and making Cs in my basics finally paid off! :-)
