Everyone loves to read about someone in their tree who is famous for something. Using Google Books, you may find many digitized copies of “Who’s who of …” with the surname in question listed.
The content of each entry varies based on the topic of the Who’s Who issue. It may be an Who’s Who in Germany, or Who’s Who in New York (city and state). In the 1922 issue of Who’s Who in Engineering, I was able to confirm the mother’s surname of a distant cousin. Not only do I now know the entire work history of this individual, I know what clubs he belonged to, every school he ever attended, and where he lived. The listing of abbreviations at the beginning of the book has also helped deal with those abbreviations dealing with the engineering industry. As we all know, abbreviations for one industry means something different than those of another industry.

The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.
This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
