Back to dialup-Maryland creating 6% Computer Tech Tax? Part 1

The video below is an extended conversation from the WYPR radio show I host called "The Digital Cafe" by Mario Armstrong". The show is 4 minutes in length and airs 5:30pm Tuesdays during NPR show All Things Considered. This particular topic needed well beyond 4 minutes to discuss the details. So after the segment I sat down with Tom Loveland, Co-founder of the lobbying group "Maryland Computer Services Association" and CEO of Mind Over Machines a tech company in Maryland.

Going cross-country on a Segway! an inspirational indie film

Finally had a chance to watch all the clips of this move called "10 mph". It's an awesome film that is inspiring and reassuring for those doing what they love and a reminder to those of us who aren't! Take a look at the opener clip below and you decide where you want to be.
