Nest CEO Tony Fadell: Full Interview, Past to Present , Tony tells Steve Jobs Stories

This video interview of Tony Fadell, Nest CEO by Emily Chang is one of the best. Tony has a fascinating  background, including working closely with Steve Jobs of Apple. Tony Fadell projects a positive and wholesome energy as he tells some great stories about working with Steve Jobs.
Listening to Tony I realize we had a similar upbringing, e.g. we are both from the Midwest, we both moved around a lot, and I agree 100% about what Tony says about the benefits of moving around a lot. Plus it teaches you how to stand up to bullies. We both were obsessed with science, technology, computers, software, etc.

French Taxi Drivers Protest Uber for Days and Want Uber Banned From Paris

This is a very interesting topic to me. What does it mean to real people trying to make a living, as technology forces changes on their traditional way of life?
Also because I am amazed at how big and fast this entire Uber business has grown.
I was in a Taxi in Amsterdam and the driver told me in the Netherlands taxi drivers work for both a taxi company and also for Uber.
Then he asked me why I did not invent Uber?
I replied "good question"

Owners.com, MLSaccess.com and ForSaleByOwner.com, Should be Forced by the FTC to Stop their Deceptive MLS Advertising and Promotions

I am unhappy about how these Real Estate related companies are very deceptive, and misleading about their MLS services.

First I wrote an article about trying to sell my house on Zillow where I mention these MLS services. Now I am 100% certain that the public needs to be warned about these scams.

I have to try to get a $395 refund from Owners.com as they have taken over a week just to tell me the truth.
You cannot be in the MLS unless you sign a real estate agreement and pay a 2-3% commission.

I took a screen shot from the Owners.com site today which verifies how deceptive they are in order to trick you into signing up with them for this bogus MLS scam they offer.
