iPhone – EatWatch almost a reality?

This is awesome.  I’ve been wanting this for a long time. Robert Scoble did an Epic Tour of SRI International.  In one of his demos,  they take a video of the food.  Then, they auto generate how many calories were on your plate.  It is effectively an Eat Watch.  I so WANT this.  Diet and […]

Get Back At It

It took me a long time to learn the lesson. Too Long if you ask me. From grammar school to high school, I was an excellent student. I almost always did my homework. I rarely missed a day. I wasn’t perfect, but I tried my best. I was very close to perfect. I had no […]
