Here’s an idea I came up with a few weeks ago. I didn’t write “eBook” because it looks silly and has somewhat negative connotations. This is an Electronic Book Reader, and yes, it needs a catchier name. Here’s an overview of a few of the things I’ve thought about.

Today was super-packed. In addition to Mark Lucovsky talking at USC, I also ran around all day doing things like going to class, doing homework, going to Math 226 SI (Supplemental Instruction), and doing the bulletins for HEAT. I also did a lot of work on the TCF website. It has been a very rewarding experience for me because I’ve gotten to talk to people who directly use the website on a near-daily basis. Plus, it’s something I’m good at so I can really give back to the TCF community. It’s not the most popular site I’ve run, as Invision Plus is larger by far. But it is quite a nice site, and I like to work on it.
Mark came to give a Google Tech Talk at USC today. It was really good. It’s 1:41 AM, so I don’t have time to write about it extensively. But it was about the Google Ajax Search API, and I am looking forward to messing with it when I have time. Specifically, it would be cool to work it with Google Maps, and to use it to make a contact list (leads) builder (integrated with Spreadsheets).
