This picture fairly shouted out to be taken. Here’s Skype Journal’s Jim Courtney and my buddy and business partner Howard Thaw having a coffee together. Note the identical Nokia N800 tablets, attached to the free WiFi. What you can’t see is this…
They’re having a video conference call across the table… with each other!

That is geeky in the extreme. I love it.
