I know it’s two weeks late, but I must say I am sad to see George Carlin die.  He was a great comedian and often times the only voice of real reason in this world.  I have all of his books and they are all must reads, especially Napalm and Silly Putty.  Here’s a video of one of my favorite bits by him.

Well, it’s official, Bill Gates has officially retired from Microsoft and has handed the keys of the operation over to Steve Ballmer.  Whether you are a Windows user, Apple user, or Linux user, and whether you hate him or love him, Gates revolutionized this world with his visions and ideas.  Here’s a great interview with him on his last day with Tom Brokaw.

Here’s a link to the video, since I can’t embed MSN videos.

And here’s a link to a good article from Fortune about Microsoft post-Gates.
