Day in brief

Japanese tragedy continued

Big Picture continues the series on Japanese disaster.  As on of the comments says:

It’s just incredible how tragedy is heaping upon tragedy – the earthquake, then tsunami, then reactor problems, volcano – and now frigid weather. Love and strength to the people of Japan – your grace through fire is an inspiration to all.

I’ve only seen scenes like this one in the movies about World War II and in post-apocalyptic video games.  This one is not a result of someone’s imagination.  It is actually how things are now, today, a mere 10,000 km from me.  Unbelievable.

Discussions in Google Docs

Google introduced discussions in Google Docs.  A very useful feature, no doubt.

After seeing a social network implemented within Dropbox, I wonder how much time it will take to turn this feature into the next Twitter.  Or Facebook.
