I had just finished reading this disturbing speculative piece on possible federal legislation referred to as the i-Patriot Act when I bounced over to the NY Times for my cheerful morning read and noticed the photo in this article about Google’s new Insight Tool….
I had been a little disappointed that Google had not included me in their pre-briefing on the new product. After looking at the photo, I can say that I was relieved that I had not been invited as I am not wont to wear a tie. Although one has to wonder when the head of the FBI and Justice Department started running Google’s product announcements. I guess on second thought they wouldn’t have let me in anyways.

I think Tommy Lee Jones could play the one on the left and Will Smith the one on the right in the “Google is giving everyone a chance to peek deeper” story when it comes to the screen.

@Dave
Since I don’t have to worry about what to wear, I can fret about what to bring :
