My dad sent this link to me. It’s a great lecture from a Carnegie Mellon professor who is dying from cancer. It’s over an hour long, but worth watching even if in bits and pieces.
Lifehacker had a post about napping – how and why to power nap. While the main link is to Ririan Project on 10 benefits to power napping, there are several other links of interest.
Check out this list of 20 online references to allow you to ween yourself from Wikipedia. Of course, who would want to do that? Scholastici.us has a nice list including Encyclopedia Britannica and Oxford English Dictionary.
Lifehacker had a post from freeantennas.com on how to boost your wireless signal using household products. Some reported gains of 100%, but others found gains of only 5%. But of more interest is a link to another post that shows you how to change your router from a $60 to a $600 one by hacking the firmware. Might be worth a try (at your own risk).
