tl;DR -check out Google’s awesome political election tracker

I’m a political junkie, so I’m following this year’s Republican primary process with the fervor with which I, also a baseball fanatic, follow baseballwhich is to say, very much. And the main things in election season to watch out for are the elections themselves – nan ka ane sa a, prensipal chak eta a nan ki kandida yo Repibliken konpetisyon.

Eleksyon sa yo pè, men jwi konplètman yo mwen bezwen stats. Mwen bezwen rezilta. Mwen bezwen done. Mwen bezwen graf fre. Mwen bezwen yon gwo tracker politik. Se konsa, gade sa mwen jwenn:

Chrome OS: all web, all the time

As you might have noticed, the guys at Google have released (byen, not released, they’ve just publicly shown it for the first time; Chromebooks are coming out on June 15) Chromebooks, which are netbooks that run the Chrome OS.

That’s all well and good, since you’re allowed to advertise, but Microsoft really goes to the extreme:

  1. Microsoft signed a deal with Blackberry so that Bing would be the only search engine available on Blackberrys.
  2. My sister bought a new computer and was offered a free song download if she searched with Bing.

DuckDuckGothe best thing since Google

I was looking on my analytics page (tracking visitors to the site) and noticed someone came to hathix through DuckDuckGo. Being bored, I looked up DuckDuckGo and I was impressed automatically. It’s a great search engine. Here’s why.

Zero-click info

DuckDuckGo’s got this great feature that lets you see some quick background info on a subject when you search it. If I want to know who Nelson Mandela is without having to read a lengthy article about apartheid, South Africa, and that sort of stuff, I can just DDG it and look what I get:
