Yahoo! has been fizzling out. What time can do to any big company.

'A table for twain,' J uttered to the waitress.

Apple, Microsoft, Google, Motorola, Samsung, HTC et al. have been in the court suing each other and claiming other companies have infringed on their own patents in mobile computing. What a messy war.

Maybe IP litigators will become increasingly busy in the coming decades.

The last four teeth are beginning to grow out on our toddler daughter.

That last round of teething presents both wholesome growth and pains for her, problems for us.

Do you think 'keyboard navigation' is a better term than 'keyboard shortcuts'? I think so.

Until now, all the commonplace beers in Canada are cleft into two tiers in my mind: Heineiken and Stella Artois, and the rest.

I'm not sure how my Chinese and English proficiency will conjoin in the future. But it looks probable.

The male protagonist in the movie 'Twilight' wears a ghastly white face. That sort of images are not my cup of tea.

I wonder how a mayfly feels.
