I really really hate using Google maps for creating a map. Every single time I try to create a map for either a planned traveling route or a route I traveled I want to throw my computer out of a window. There has got to be a better way.

Me and the Movies -- We're Done

Dear Regal Cinemas People, I have been a fairly loyal Regal Cinemas attendee over the past 12 years. Aside from a few instances I have generally watched most movies I've seen in theaters at the Regal Continental 10 in Denver, CO. I am also a Regal Crown Card holder and frequent user. I ran into a predicament recently, one I've ran in to before, but this time I was really annoyed by the situation. Due to frequent usage I have a Free Pass from my Regal Card. It expires tomorrow, July 30, 2011. I jumped online at Fandango.com and looked within 30 miles of where I live in the southeast Denver area for a theater with either (1) a movie I want to see that is older than your corporate 10 day policy for using the free pass, or (2) for one I've already seen that is 10 days or older that I would be willing to see again for free. Either way, Regal Cinema wins with drink and popcorn purchases. Unfortunately, there were none. Not at Regal Continental 10, not at United Artist Colo

Amazing! I've heard of bioluminescence before but have never seen it. This is way too cool! Originally shared by Arthur Fields "Bioluminescence in the Gippsland Lakes" Photographer: Phil Hart This images would be cool enough if they were some kind of artistic fabrication, but the fact that they're real photographs is nothing short of amazing. Capturing more than one brand of nocturnal illumination, photographer Phil Hart snapped thiese at Gippsland Lakes in Victoria, Australia, displaying both the cosmic light above the water and the bioluminescent algae below. Judging from his gallery, Hart has been shooting these bioluminescent protists for a few years now, since wildfires in Victoria that began in 2006 set off a mulit-year chain reaction in the local ecosystem that eventually led to these _Noctiluca scintillans algae _thriving in the Gippsland Lakes. Hart tells the full story ( http://tinyurl.com/2u4ndpy ) of his fascination with and capturing of these biolumin

If you haven't seen this already then you haven't been on Google+ for about 2 days. Either way, it got me thinking. What does this say about organizations and corporations that require IE usage? I used to work for a company that mandated IE usage for their web-based services even though other browsers usually worked just fine. Not to mention many government websites are still IE specific. http://mashable.com/2011/07/29/internet-explorer-iq/

That's kind of annoying.

That's kind of annoying. I have a Free Pass for a Regal/United Artist theater that needs to be used by tomorrow. Since I'm probably going to be busy tomorrow I thought I might go this afternoon and see something (maybe again). Unfortunately, it doesn't look like any of the Regal/UA theaters within 30miles of where I'm sitting have anything more than 2 weeks old or anything that isn't in 3D (no passes allowed). Some of the theaters that have more than 12 screens are showing 3 or 4 Harry Potters and at least 2 Captain Americas and Transformers, both in regular 2D and in 3D. I wonder if I can use the free pass as a discount? I'll go see Cowboys and Aliens if I can.

How come Facebook doesn't have the option to report this as "I don't know this person?"

From a friend of mine on Facebook.

From a friend of mine on Facebook. Has anyone with an android ever had someone else's contacts merge with yours and show up in your contact list? No, sorry...I don't know "sexxy daddy" or "gma aggie" or "eden"... Hopefully my contacts aren't floating around in another person's phone somewhere. If anyone gets random calls, it's not my fault! Has anyone else ever had a problem like this? I thought perhaps she set up the Android to bring in contacts from Facebook or Twitter or something, but she says she hasn't and either way she doesn't know those people. Any advice?

A Rose by Any Other Name...

As seen on Google+. For those of you not paying attention, Google+ has started to come down, some might say fairly harshly, against those of us using an alias or pseudonym on their service. There are may reasons to use a pseudonym on the internet, whether it's for privacy, security or just because you don't like your given name. Take a political dissidents, for example. Many of our founding fathers used aliases when writing op-eds or letters to a from others who shared their anti-monarchy views. Or privacy in the form of someone who doesn't want their significant other, boss or children knowing what they're saying and how they're acting on the internet. Whether it's Billy Smith who complains about his boss on Facebook or Thomas Smith who let's the whole world know, anonymously, how his wife beats him on the weekends. Or whether it's Janey Brown who is trying to hide from a former lover. Or, let's consider the 6 billion people in the world who

For those of you who are west of the Mississippi and who sleep past 6am on a Saturday it is my unfortunate circumstance to inform you that +Ryan IT Lab, a staple in the Buzz and Google+ community, has had his Profile suspended. Why? Because, in a rush to do away with malicious accounts, abuse and violators of Google's ToS some 'bot somewhere has flagged his account. Hopefully for review and not for deletion. From +Ryan IT Lab to a few of us: _Hey Google - please reinstate my account. This is my profile, this is who I am. [//profiles URL deleted because, well, Google deleted it//] Ryan IT Lab also designates my unique, personal online presence.

Does your Android need new input?

Does your Android need new input? Mine doesn't, but I have a G2 (loving the physical keyboard). Some of you don't have a physical keyboard. So, here you go. Originally shared by Thomas Kang If you're an Android user, you may want to check this out. Just for today, Amazon App Store has SwiftKey X for free: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005D9MUWY?ie=UTF8&ref=mas_faad It's normally $1.99 on Android Market. The prediction on this keyboard is surprisingly good. I just wrote an email with it where I didn't even have to type a single letter of some of the words, because it correctly predicted what the likely next word was. The trick is that it learns your writing style from your SMS, Facebook, Gmail, or Twitter accounts. Keep in mind that you do have to give it permission to access your accounts in order for the training to work, so be sure to read the privacy policy and see if you're comfortable with that: http://www.swiftkey.net/privacy http://www.amazon.

Got up at 4am this morning after getting to sleep somewhen around 2am. Ugh. Do you know how hard that is? Showered, grabbed a banana, tossed the camera in the car and headed north to Titusville, FL where I was told a good view of the shuttle launch could be had. I get there a little after 5am (I had to stop for gas and caffeine), parked at a, um, park, and as I grabbed my camera I realized I left the tripos at my mom's house. Ugh.

I traipse back down the street about 3/4 of a mile away from where I was going to the only place open at 5:30am, a CVS. Inside is super busy and I buy some AA batteries for the camera, install them and start the haul back up the street and to the bridge.
