Once again, we have a message that could have been placed in more than one blog category, such as: Our Cyberplace, Bill's Blog, or the newly created Our Information Highway. I decided on Hammerhead because it will include quotes from other bloggers, who IMHO (that's techie talk for "in my [...]
Today's post is my 99th blog for the Argus-Courier. The original topic was called Our Cyberplace, a slight modification of an earlier blog named Our Cyberspace, that was hosted by "Petaluma Online" from 2003-2005. These two blogs, although slightly different in name, covered essentially the same interest area - the [...]
You didn't have to have "eagle-eyes" to read the headline in the 5-29-06 Technology Section of the SF Chronicle. It was music to my ears! Over 10 years ago, when we formed our local community group of Cybernauts called PetalumaNet, I felt that we would reach this level of use [...]
I enjoy reading Tom Friedman's columns for the New York Times. Most of the time, I agree with him. Why? He often takes a futurist's point of view - looking ahead to where we are going; not where we've been. Consequently, his thoughts are out of the box, and he [...]
Yesterday was not only a beautiful day weather-wise; but a most informational day Cyberspace-wise. I left Our Cyberplace - Petaluma, and spent four hours mingling with folks at the Marin Broadband Roundtable meeting in Sausalito.

(Jonathan Turley, George Washington University.) That's rather blunt talk about one of our favorite themes - Our Cyberspace. Even though the focus [...]
Hit the "pause" key! Stop the presses! Is it time to reconsider this blogger's quest to promote greater use of computer technology and telecommunications? Have I really thought through the impact that computers, cell phones, video games, text messaging, and - YES - even blogs will have on those children [...]
Can you believe that headline? The article in yesterday's Press Democrat Business Section by Tim Barker of The Orlando Sentenial stated that "Every day, more than 70,000 new blogs are born on the Internet." Our local Argus-Courier can claim credit for launching 20 blogs for readers in Our Cyberplace - [...]
"You are lost out there. Stop wandering and return home." But I am home when I think about my CyberPlace - Petaluma, USA. There are two elements of our cyber world that are As a Cybernaut, I'm continually on a journey in CyberSpace. Sometimes my wife says, not separate, but [...]
As of May 3rd, I have posted 50 blogs for the Argus-Courier. This entry will be the 53rd. That will average about one per day, since I started posting on March 11th. I can't promise how much longer I might be able to do this. There are so many other [...]
