What? Did I read that right? You can activate this software instantly if you have an internet connection. If not, you need to do a manual registration via, um, the internet?

This totally screwed me up because I tried to it on a day when I had no internet...

The other day I noticed something strange at sugarsync.com:

The home page of sugarsyncs 5gb (currently) cloud storage service shows an image of it's software running on three devices. The first, an Apple MacBook Pro, the second is an Apple iPhone and it would appear that in an effort to not be completely Apple biased, is a tablet of some description (what appears to be a samsung galaxy tab).

But take a second look, I've shown the whole page below, with part of it at full size. Can you seen that? As far as I'm concerned they've just photoshopped the iPad app into the other tablet...

C'mon SugarSync that's your iPad software, why not just show the iPad itself?! lol.

At the bottom I've deliberately shown a crop of the top left corner from an iPad at a similar lo res. I'll take this opportunity to recommend the iPad, it's a phenomenal device!

Amazingly, when I opened Facebook today I happened across the weirdest coincidence. A friend from high school had posted a photo about floating a paper boat down a river with his son. The the feed directly above his photo was a random image from a random website I once liked, showing candles made in the shape of origami boats of exatly the same type! What are the chances of that?

I've heard, that all the stars in the universe will eventually burn out, leaving the universe in darkness. This will however take a long time. How long? We'll, if you were to represent one year with a single atom, there wouldn't be enough atoms in the universe to count the years until the universe will go dark.



Recently I was lying in bed in the middle of New Delhi, India, unable to sleep, my son, five years old, lay next to me and although his sister and mother had achieved a blissful sate of slumber, like me, he was afflicted with insomnia.



He leaned over and whispered in my ear; "tickle my tummy please daddy", so I did.



It took about 20 minutes of stroking and tickling until he was asleep. That was all he needed.

I thought about how in the scope of the universe this was such an un believably small period of time my poor brain couldn't even begin to conceive it.  Despite the knowledge of how fleeting this moment of time was, as I watched my sons eyes fall closed, I still could no help but be washed with an intense feeling of utter significance.
