Laptops and feats of self-immolation

If you’re one of those people who like to use your notebook or laptop by actually sitting it on your lap and then tapping away, be prepared for a change in habit.

Only a month ago, news about a Dell laptop exploding in a Japanese conference made way for lots of interesting discussions on the safety of laptops. Today, it looks like another Dell laptop has just decided to protest its existence with a rather angry display of spontaneous combustion.

Web Syndication

Do you ever find yourself in the following situation:

You’re sitting in front of your computer with the web browser open, and you’re about to read the blogs of your friends.

Humans are interesting…and very complex!

Hi everyone, great that you could make it to our page. So what will I be writing? Pretty much things that I think about, things that Keith thinks about, and things that Keith and I get into ‘heated discussions’ about. These will probably include topics such as relationships, why people do things the way they do, guys, girls, families, children…like an application of what I learn in psychology; integrating some church things as well. Also I will be sharing about what I learn from the experiences of life - good and bad. So I hope that this website gets you thinking really hard, and that it is somewhat of a blessing to you =) (Oh, and as you can probably tell, Keith came up with the name of this site. I had no idea what ‘loquacity’ was)

It’s also like when you format your hard disk and wipe everything so that you start from scratch and slowly reinstall everything that you need.
