This week’s, Yeah Boy!!!

I don’t know if you’ve heard of David Pogue, New Technology Columnist for NyTimes.Com. His website is aptly named: DavidPogue.com. I first got turned on to him (no he did not turn me on :-P ) when he did the keynote for a marketing conference I attended in Las Vegas about 2 years ago. The man has proven that he had the gift for writing, the gift of gab, he delivers his stuff in a very down-to-earth and funny fashion (both in text and in speech) and as he demonstrated in that keynote speech, he got musical skills, too. He explained that Music was actually his major in college and becoming one of the most recognized and respected tech reviewer in the web today is quite a feat indeed. Read more

Missed last Friday’s Yeah Boy, Yeah Suck ‘coz of the holidays and today I’ve been fighting the network gremlins all morning and a little out of sorts right now and playing catch-up… Yes that cheese to go with my whine sounds good just about now…

Anyway…

This week’s Yeah Boy! (should have been last week, but who’s tracking?)…

Efren Peñaflorida and the rest of the 10 CNN 2009 Heroes. Their stories are simply the true silver lining in the dark clouds that has been laying over our dear planet. Efren Peñaflorida was named the CNN Hero of the Year, but even though I am truly proud of this man from my home country, I can easily say that any of the other 9 folks recognized in this event are equally deserving.

My hat’s off to these heroes: http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/cnn.heroes/archive09/index.html

What else is there to say but YEAH BOY!!!

This week’s Yah Suck, well there are so many choices: Read more
