It’s being accomplished by entrepreneurs, experts in their field, historians, scientists, brilliant minds of our time. Nikola Tesla revolutionized various different things, but there are so many of his ideas that you […]

When I have philosophical discussions with friends or family, typically the topic comes up regarding humans and computers. Being that I’m a tech geek, they always seem to think that I have the answers. I do have opinions, so they could suffice for now. My biggest opinion is that one day, when the Singularity happens, and artificial […]

Every single day, I receive an email from a tech company who is trying to sell a service to me. Whether accounting, legal, PR, analytics, recruiting, you name it, the emails come pouring in on a daily basis.  After doing some research, I noticed most of the companies either recently were funded in the millions […]

Often, when a new company launches, with big money backing it (think $1 million), the press and media jump all over it for an interview. And then something horrible happens. The company founders say something that they believe is true, when in fact it is not. A great example is when co-founder of Tinder, Whitney […]

Multirotor Drones are a fairly new technology, but are on the brink of exploding with the first Drone Championships recently taking place in California.

When building a company, there is a process that you have to go through, from whiteboard to launch. On a daily basis, your focus is usually devoted to each piece of this process. Each product or service has a […]

People and entrepreneurs pitch their ideas to me every single day. When they do, one thing is consistent: They don’t know how to code. I watch them spend months trying to find developers to join their team for equity, without success more often than not. Every entrepreneur has “the next big thing”, and they think […]

It was the fall of 2010, and the movie I had written, produced, and directed was finally finished and submitted to film festivals. It was an exhausting journey (creating a feature-length film), and I found myself needing a break. Being a technology guy at my core, I felt inclined to take a step back from […]

Americans spend 5.5 billion hours stuck in traffic every year. One or two hours of commuting to work or just on day trips, are a huge waste of time and money. Extra fuel consumption because of traffic is around $121 billion because of this as well, which is an immense waste of resources. When I […]

I was wondering what all the hype was about regarding Meerkat launching at SXSW recently. So I downloaded it to see for myself why celebrities were touting it to be such an amazing app. I have to say I was slightly disappointed, even though the interface is very easy to use and very intuitive. So […]
