23andMe Genetic Testing
I love new and cool technologies. This ranges from the supreme laziness afforded by an iRobot Dirt Dog to the awesome laziness afforded by a Segway. Yet these two gadgets pall in comparison to my somewhat fanatical interest in a (relatively) new company called 23andMe:
23andMe’s mission is to be the world’s trusted source of personal genetic information.
So exactly what does 23andMe offer? Personal genetic testing for health, disease, and ancestry. In brief they are a DNA testing laboratory that will give you a very thorough and complete breakdown of your own DNA. Sounds awesome to me.
I’ve been interested in trying out their services for a while however I cannot honestly rationalize their $500 price for something that I perceive as an awesome (and somewhat practical) luxury. Maybe I’ll give it to myself as a birthday present, or perhaps someone else will.
I recently found a very thorough breakdown and review of a blogger who bought and used 23andMe’s services. Go take a look at Paul’s write-up of his experience using 23andMe. Looks really cool to me, however it still looks to be a luxury purchase.
The future is coming sooner than I can imagine. I hope the next scientific development is personal body modifications. I would love to have claws like Wolverine. I would save so much on shaving costs.

Amazon Marketplace How-To Guide Part 1
The most viewed post that I’ve written so far has been the Amazon Marketplace entry – seems people are interested in making an easy dollar. So, the natural thing for me to do is write a guide on how to sell your stuff on Amazon.
Amazon already offers tutorials to help you start selling. I found them a little confusing and scattered so I’m writing my own. This one goes from A-to-B: wanting to sell something to getting the funds in your bank account.
This guide will be broken into three different parts. The first part will teach you how to list your items on Amazon Marketplace, the second part will show you what to do when an item sells, and the third part will show you how to get your earnings into your bank account!
