Christopher Nerney answers Re: How do you respond to a job interviewer that asks to see your social media activity? What's next, your tax forms? A list of people you've slept with? Your voting record? I agree with you -- private means private. If an interviewer can't get an idea of whether you'd be a good fit through an interview and reference checks, someone else should be doing the interviewing. Companies don't own you.1 day 15 hours ago

The last I heard was that Google hoped to be shipping the commercial version of Glass toward the end of the year. With Google Glass Explorer Edition (the beta version) just now going out to 15,000 early testers and developers, it's too early to tell if Google can ship by year's end (assuming that's the plan).

pasmith commented on Stream PBS content to your Roku playerI've been really pleased with mine, and I don't think it's just me... I haven't seen a negative review of the Roku 3. It's possible I've just missed them but all the sites I read seemed to like it as well. Do keep in mind the Roku 3 only has HDMI out. Some of the other models offer more options in case you want to use component ports or something.
And I finally get around to mentioning the Time Warner Cable Roku Channel, too.1 week 2 days ago

Unless you can get Anonymous on the case, probably not. I'd just turn off the WiFi when you're not using it. If he's truly going nuts with the bandwidth-hogging, that means he's using it a lot. If he finds he can't use it at all for long periods, he might get frustrated enough to get his own WiFi.
