What Toyota Should Do
If you have read my posts you’ll know that I am a proponent of open source. Toyota keeps trying to tread water and defending themselves. I recently saw a post on Yahoo called Toyota disputes critic who blames electronics. I’m usually one to blame the code in situations like this. I don’t know how many […]
Why I Want Google Fiber
