  1. Will I get the next iPhone?

    It’s a tricky question but the jerk we call Steve Jobs has made it so easy for me to say no: Fixing stuff isn’t a feature: I’m more than pissed about the recessed headphone jack. I had to go out and buy a $10 adapter because Steve said it was the best and only way–it had [...]

  2. Unfair, unethical World Series ticket sales

    I have a huge issue with how tickets were sold here on Monday/Tuesday to the World Series games in Denver. My biggest issue is with the lying, unfair company behind the online ticket sales, Paciolan Inc. Here’s a run-down of all the issues and what I suspect really happened: No tickets were sold in-person: They said putting [...]

  4. Happy iCal Day!

    Happy iCal Day! If you use a Mac and have iCal in the tray you’ll notice the icon always shows July 17th. Well, for once it’s right! I find this especially humorous because I’ve started using my Mac as my primary computer (I’m going to be out of town for 3 weeks, I need to [...]

  6. Does the internet scare you?

    I love the internet. I’ve grown up with it. Even as a kid I remember being addicted to it. In fact, I sometimes forget how things got done before it was around. I can’t imagine what it was like to register for classes with a pencil and paper. It’s scary how much we rely on [...]

  9. Joost Review

    I’ve had the pleasure of testing out a new product (previously named “The Venice Project”) that will, perhaps, revolutionize the way we experience “television” in the coming years. From the creators of Skype (free online calls) comes Joost (free online TV). Is it awesome? Yes. Is it in a closed beta? Yes. But will I [...]

  11. MacBook and Hard Cover Case

    You may not have noticed but I recently bought myself a toy. Brace yourself: it was a black Macbook. I know, right? Who would’ve guessed? My friends all snickered. The others that had already “converted” let out their sighs of relief (aka “finally!”).

  12. Dell Doesn’t Suck

    …when they want to get your money. A few weeks ago I was mailed a coupon for $50 off any computer system over $800. Plus, I’d get free ground shipping. Dell saw me coming a mile away. I’m sure I was flagged “addcit” once I bought two LCDs and opened a Dell Preferred Credit account. Rightfully [...]

  15. Funny Microsoft Email

    Filed under the “you can’t make this stuff up” category is the following email I received from Microsoft today. (Click for full view) Look carefully and see if you can spot the typo. Hint: how does a company misspell it’s own product name?

  16. Live vs Google Domains

    Scoble is upset because people are talking more about Google than Microsoft. Nathan is also expressing his concern. Guys, the reasoning behind all of this is pretty clear. Yes, MSN has a much larger user base than GMail. But, all the popular nerds with blogs, all those guys ‘buzzing’ about Google Domains: they love Google. The [...]

  19. Computers Crash

    Why the hell is it that computers will crash and eff up if and only if you’re in the middle of a pretty important task? Honestly. I was having website issues the other day and then this evening Windows crashed hard (and by hard I mean it rebooted saying it had to do registry recovery, [...]
