arbritrage opportunity in books

// January 3rd, 2010 // No Comments » // Uncategorized

For those seriously willing to pursue, there is a mispricing of u.s./cdn marked assets such as books. This leads to a beautiful arbitrage play, for anyone serious enough to do it.

If I could source a buyer of canadian books, i would do it in a heartbeat..

Here is the double usb mouse concept

// September 25th, 2009 // No Comments » // Economics, Uncategorized

That i’ve been holding onto for a long time. It would be simple to implement, with two usb mice. The problem is in the software, as the O/S needs to be reconfigured to either accept 2 input streams or to have the mice logically mapped from a single stream. Many applications would seem to be more intuitive with such an interaction. Click on the image for a larger version. So here it is. yup.

Fourtrack

-Just installed this on my iPhone. FourTrack. Makes it easy to multitrack record, while waiting for the subway (see post re: city hall). A very fun and handy app.
-I’m offering free webhosting to any non-profit/charity that requires it, so feel free to contact me.
-Some new strategic coming for “Upcoming in Interactive - Winter”
-Also, I have heard back from City hall, they wrote a reasoned and clear response, which can be found in the comments for that post. Further to that, I’m excited that Streetcars will be getting GPS, so you’ll be able to look up where each car is at any given time, which should reduce some of the resource allocation problems i mentioned.
