Send files with Senduit

Monday, May 12th, 2008

Have you ever tried to email a file to someone, only to have it bounce because you exceeded their maximum attachment size? Ever needed to borrow an FTP site for five minutes, just to transfer a file or two? If so, you’re in luck to today. Let me introduce you to Senduit.

A Presentation: Turning Ideas into Reality

Saturday, May 10th, 2008

I happened to come across a link from a Twitter contact and friend I met through Startup Houston, Marc Nathan. Marc linked to an interesting presentation, “The Force Behind Star Wars: Turning Ideas into Reality,” that is a mashup of User Experience (UX) and Star Wars. The presentation uses George Lucas’ struggles to […]

Just added TwitThis!

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

Announcing that michaellundberg.com now provides TwitThis support! I know, I know… this serves no real purpose except to demonstrate that sometimes I just add things to this site because I can.
I like to Twitter occasionally, and I happened to come across TwitThis, which is a cool little service/script that provides a quick and cool […]

WeeWar wins some awards!

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

I’ve mentioned WeeWar in the past (here and here, not to mention it’s in the top right-hand corner of every page). If you’ve never heard of or played WeeWar, stop what your doing (well, finish reading this, first) and head over to www.weewar.com and try out a game. Once you play it, I […]

Where were you when I was in high school?

Saturday, February 9th, 2008

So today, I was having lunch with some buddies of mine and they start telling me about this TV show, “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” and I’ve never heard of it. So they’re all whooping it up and talking about this show like it’s the greatest thing, and I’m thinking, “this show sounds pretty […]

Spock continues to grow

Tuesday, January 8th, 2008

I couple of months ago, I posted about my renewed interest in Spock after receiving several emails from other Spock users requesting to add me to their trust and search networks. My article also compared Spock’s people searching tools to some other sites such as Spoke and Jigsaw, who are similar, but ultimately have […]

Dopplr goes public

Friday, December 21st, 2007

I have previously blogged about and handed out invitations to the travel-related social networking site, Dopplr.com. I received an email from them today, thanking me for participating in the private beta and announcing that they were opening their doors to the rest of the public:
Dear Michael,
We’re writing to thank you. We’re grateful that you […]

Hulu Invitations

Thursday, December 20th, 2007

Get ‘em while they’re hot! Mashable.com, one of my favorite Web 2.0 news sites, is giving out 2,500 Hulu invitations! As the below article mentions, the invitations are hard to come by since after you get an account, you cannot send invitations to other people like so many other beta web 2.0 properties. […]

Why are the fruits sick?

Thursday, November 29th, 2007

I’ve got 65 Pownce connections now(psst - connect to me!). I’m not even sure how I got that many except that I accept pretty much anyone who “friends” me, as long as your picture or profile doesn’t look too scary. I get all kinds of random Pownces from people and today, one of […]

Are you lost?

Tuesday, November 27th, 2007

It seems like I’m always finding strange things on the web.
I found this picture over the weekend. It’s a little large, so it may take a second or two to load. Don’t worry - the picture is strange, but it’s totally safe for work. What do you think about it? Is it […]
