I like using Ancestory.com's free Surname Research Tool. It's fun to look up my families' names, and my friends, too.

We're hosting a dance party and you're invited. The co-proprietor of the Universal Space Agency and my best friend, Paul Stockamore, is moving to San Diego in January. Consider this his send-off. Dress inappropriately.

Blood Meridian
 I'm reading Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian (so good) and it's made me eager to know more about the Apaches, the Yumas, and the rogue professional armies contracted by the Mexicans and Americans to supply Native scalps for gold. The conflicts in the West before America's official expansion campaigns are extraordinary. Complete fear and inhumanity reigned! The dark ages on the Rio Grande! Suck it, De Beers.
The New Diamond Age via Sonya.Diamond, it turns out, is a geek's best friend. Not only is it the hardest substance known, it also has the highest thermal conductivity - tremendous heat can pass through it without causing damage. Today's speedy microprocessors run hot - at upwards of 200 degrees Fahrenheit. In fact, they can't go much faster without failing. Diamond microchips, on the other hand, could handle much higher temperatures, allowing them to run at speeds that would liquefy ordinary silicon. But manufacturers have been loath even to consider using the precious material, because it has never been possible to produce large diamond wafers affordably. With the arrival of Gemesis, the Florida-based company, and Apollo Diamond, in Boston, that is changing. Both startups plan to use the diamond jewelry business to finance their attempt to reshape the semiconducting world.

 Hi, I'm Zach. I grew up in Fort Wayne, Indiana and graduated from Wake Forest. After college, I moved to Manhattan to get serious about a company I ran with friends. We sold it to Barry Diller's InterActiveCorp in 2006. I just wrapped up with a project I co-founded called Vimeo and left CV to focus on being a twenty-five year old. I have another blog called Copy and Taste, where I post about learning to cook. I live in Brooklyn now.
