Shorter attention span and not wanting to sit for hours and code, do not make you an extravert. I would say it makes you wiser in applying your time in a way that benefits you.. (hallmark of many introverted personality types) it is perhaps that coding takes too much energy for you to do, so you immediately dismiss it as an activity - this is typical of many introverts.
As far as your limited attention span 'attention defict disorder' i think this is the norm in society today.. with so much information flowing towards us quiet or repetitious moments seem boring.. Introverts are quite often intuitive and these repititous moments, are more so to us because we usually anticipate the outcome, and so time is wasted in getting to it. The trick i have found is to learn to appreciate the finer details in these quiet/repititous moments.. gaining an appreciation for music, wine, cigars, evolution/nature and it's forces allows one to really enjoy the quiet moments (this is why introverts are usually scientists/analysts).. the information will still be flowing, but only within your introverted mind.
I hate to say this.. because if i've been talking with any sort of appreciable intelligence, this will negate it - drugs can open doors in your mind. Introvert mental processes are very complex, and marked by 'out of box thinking' (that is, the ability to quickly switch between unrelated through processes) - this makes the effects of drugs on us a completely different experience than that of our extroverted counterparts. Having said that, I should mention that introverts represent a large share of drug abusers - (probably because the experience is so amazing to our minds) so if you have an addictive personality type, watch yourself. EVERYTHING in moderation. (standard disclaimers apply, ymmv, yadda, yadda)
In trying to understand my own psyche i've been doing alot of reasearch on the net.. I am quite certain that myers-briggs/jung typologies are pretty much dead on.. i've had so many 'aha' epiphany moments reading about my personality type (intj), it's made my work life, personal life, and everything in between so much better. Having an understanding of your strengths and weaknesses is definately a good thing, especially in this day and age. Learning to exploit yourself, is almost as good as exploiting others;)
http://www.humanmetrics.com has a great (free) typology test, but you have to remember to be dead honest with yourself when answering the questions (take your time!) once you have your personality type, the net makes it easy to 'find who you are'.
and us peanut producers are fed up with people with nut allergies not eating our peanuts.. imagine the job loss they people are causing!! ban peanut allergies
Why don't you go for a guinness record? the biggest tour, with the most tour guides - get a/.'r in ever city to give you a guided geek tour as you make your way across the continent!
I tend to think the cause of the worlds problems is from cramming people together - it's hard keep the best interests of the world in mind, when you live in a concrete jungle. Telecommuting is the answer.. the guvmint needs to give corporations a break for allowing employees to work from home. Who needs to go into the office to do their job in this day and age anyway?? If I was telecommuting - I'd save fuel, money, time - at least then the plight of the world is left in the hands of the people.. rather than corporations and governments that could care less.
it's been quite simple for me.. I follow the "do everything opposite of the majority of americans" - I became a vegetarian, i eat tonnes of high quality organic vegetables, with all the sugar and carbs i want in vegetable/fruit form.. i rarely excercise.. and the pounds are flying off..
Now they are trying to position themselves as a "services" company. That's just pathetic
pathetic? I would suggest this is the reality in the coming economy, think of the ROI when i don't have to have out of date hardware sitting onsite, I can just outsource computons.. an excellent business model. Kudos to HP. this may even help the environment by requiring less actual hardware overall for everyones computing needs.
Indeed, the title is misleading. The traffic will flow over TELUS's national Private IP network which, incidentally, happens to be the fastest optical/IP network in north america end-to-end.
I dunno.. slackers, or smart and efficient? Us humans toil away at our jobs and responsibilities in our ever precious 'society' - they all seem happy, healthy and not burdened with the societal woes we have, even though their beahaviour is almost identical... now that they are in the same genus, i'm wondering if i can remove my associations with humans, and start playing chimp society.;) (It's probably a much more fullfilling game to play).
The stories can be completely false, opinionated and biased.. but we don't worry about that.. why in the hell would we worry about modified photos? I say buyer beware.. if you like to read that kind of media.. be aware of what your buying - the text is definately more harmful and powerful than any photos can be.
What about, a house that is completely compostable, recyclable and cheap that can be returned to the earth so that minimal additional cost is incurred in it's destruction, therefore making upgrade costs less. Rather than thinking about how permant we can make our mark as human viruses on this planet, perhaps we should be thinking about how to make the least impact, and yet still be livable. Like anyone knows in the computer industry.. old is no good. A house is a mere living system, like a computer old ones are just a pain in the ass.
Bitter broccoli? Where in the hell is your brocolli grown?? - lightly steam them up and put a tiny bit of butter on.. i could eat buckets of it!!! mmmmmm irony green goodness - I can feel my body fixing itself when i eat it!!
I can't help thinking about the next level of gaming.. where the people controlling the war will be playing a c&c generals type of game, but the actual troops are human, and those players are playing a battlefield 1942 type of game.. now that would be some sweet gaming..
Next gen is clearly old and does not hold the audience it used to, the same could probably be said about voyager (although, not to the same extent). As far as marketing goes, people want to learn more about the characters they know - get an inside scoop that can't be seen on tv, but only through movies. It makes sense that they try to capture this audience to be succesful. I beleive a voyager movie could be succesful where this movie failed - it's perhaps a little early for enterprise... but soon!

Birthplace of mosaic maybe.. not the www. Oh wait a sec.. maybe i am wrong.. considering al gore did invent the internet!
Naaa.. I have scripts to do that - because i am so smart - S M R T i mean S M A T i mean S M R A T i mean.. DOH
Seriously.. I don't think I have printed a page of paper in the last year - what do people still print that can't be used on a computer/disk media?

This isn't going over the internet... it's using TELUS's private 'NGN' IP network.

Your shepherd might tell you he is working for your interests - but you are still on a sheep farm my friend.
all i can say is.. BUCK A DAY COMPUTER

2. Sue there assess off
3. Profit!

Now americans can get even fatter.. they should make this work in REVERSE to give more resistance to the rider.
I just googled up that image and then photoshopped it up.
Great, hopefully Alton Brown can make a super mayonnaise emulsion based on this theory - super tasty and smooth on the tongue, now that's Good Eats!
