A (mostly) mobile blog about the life (vaguely non-existent) of a recent Master's graduate navigating through San Francisco, and soon, Chicago. A collection of cool geeky tech stuff, odd grad/med school anecdotes, and random happenstance. Not getting too much into it, let's just say I fight cancer (in general).

To iPad or not to iPad
Besides the arrival of the iPad, there are some serious tablets out there. Just early today, they announced the pricing and specs of the new HP Slate. Despite the low battery life (5+hours vs. 10 hours for the ipad), you get a full fledged working tablet. And a front-facing camera. And a digitizer and fully capacitive multi-touch screen.
Research-wise, I can see myself bringing in the slate to run the spike-sorting software in the lab while simultaneously jotting in data in my excel spreadsheet. Maybe even do a video journal of how my research is going. Pretty awesome!
On a personal note, sleep has been better for me but it feels like my body hasn't had sleep for years and is trying to catch up. I do feel more awake then usual, but man, I really do enjoy sleeping. It's given me at least the energy to be awake to go running. And finally, my endurance has return so i can faster and longer miles.
Sounds like
computers,
gadgets,
ipad,
running indie song of the day
