Computer and Technology Quotations Random Search Links

As the editor of two computer user group newsletters, I am always looking for quotations pertaining to computers and technology.

This morning I saw a tweet from @MakeUseOf linking to their January 5th post:

<http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/three-very-different-ways-to-find-inspiring-quotations/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter>

I particularly liked QuoteStumbler <http://www.quotestumbler.com>, and will be using the two following links whenever I need a quote for filler in my newsletters.

http://www.quotestumbler.com/quote/word/Computers

http://www.quotestumbler.com/quote/word/Technology

I subscribe to the MakeUseOf <http://www.makeuseof.com> RSS feed, as well as following them on Twitter, and I find a lot of great information.

Thanks MakeUseOf!

Computer Free Weekend #2


I started 2010 off with another computer free weekend. (See my previous post: http://bpcablog.blogspot.com/2009/09/computer-free-weekend.html)

New Years Eve morning was the last time I accessed any of my computers, until I reached work this morning. Although I have a lot of emails and RSS feeds to catch up on, I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with my granddaughter, as well as the rest of the family here in Florida, reading, doing a little fishing, and just generally relaxing.

Now I have to get back to the regular routine once again, but I do intend to find another weekend in the next few months to be computer free once more.

How do you recharge?

Do you also set aside a computer free, or  even technology free, weekend every once in a while?
