I wonder whether the traditional demarcation between "consumption" and "productivity" devices is accurate. What if the real difference is between people who can afford to own multiple devices versus people who can only afford one device? #
Google Shuts Out Competitors on Android? Hardly - The New York Times. I think it's clear the EU does not like Google, the antitrust claims it is making about Android is ridiculous. #

When will evangelicals realize that every Republican candidate since Reagan has been using you? They say what they think you want to hear, but don't really believe what they say nor intend to do anything they promise.

It will be good for them to come to Wrigley several games above .500. #
