What will end up being a ridiculous series of posts, I changed the phone designs a bit, instead of a notification list, i thought interactive widgets were really where it was at… millions of changes ahead but thought it would be interesting to share the process…
In 2007 Apple introduced one of the biggest products in history which “revolutionized” (I hate using that word, but there’s not many others that can work in its spot) cell phones and the emerging smartphone business permanently. From the day Steve Jobs had his keynote introducing the phone my mouth instantly watered and I was determined to get one…asap. The phone had amazing features, went beyond what any other phone could do and was just plain old cool. A lot has changed since then, and with the latest announcement of the Windows Phone 7 series I figured I would take a long winded approach to what I think is good and bad about the 3 major players– the iPhone, Android and Windows Phone. +Continue Reading
Yesterday I popped on the blog and realized it had been forever since I had any updates! My bad!!! Not that there’s people clamoring for more of my drawn out stories, but still, I am getting back on the wagon and you shall see a lot more shortly!!!
So there are plenty of people for some strange reason stalking this blog. COMMENT ALREADY! Start some conversation. The only people who seem to want to converse are spam bots that want to talk about cialis or other enhancement drugs. I spend a good chunk of time deleting these spam posts.. about 50ish a day, just a pain in my ass, so I added the captcha field to the comments. I know… everyone HATES captcha, but this one is very basic, but just in case, here’s a picture that tells you EXACTLY how to do it. :)
The latest update to the house in honor of Mike and the upcoming Colts appearance in the Super Bowl…
Since my birthday last year I have been begging for the Apple Tablet. It was the worst kept secret in the tech world and as I am a gadget junkie I HAD TO HAVE IT. Well yesterday Apple FINALLY introduced their ‘iPad’ (please, enough maxi pad jokes… even I am not doing them.). I kept up with the live blogging and then watched their product video. The only thing I have to say… WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT. I was SO SO SO excited for a revolutionary product and they came with a repurposed iPhone/iPod Touch. Don’t get me wrong, its a beautiful piece of equipment, and from watching their official video, but it doesn’t deliver to those who wanted something NEW, the “NEW CREATION” they were touting. I think part of it was alllllllll the rumors that have been surrounding it since last year, the fake mocks etc but, it’s safe to say I will PROBABLY not get this iteration of the product. Though who knows on that. I will say watching the video makes it seem MUCH cooler so who knows…
I am not going to lie. I am restless waiting for the big Apple event in 2 weeks where they have a new “product” unveiling. Everyone and their mother assumes it will be the longtime rumored tablet. There have been such a ridiculous amount of rumors, it’s hard to pretend it doesn’t exist but it’s also hard to pretend that it’s not out there! Well, Valleywag has taken things a step further by putting out a bounty for proof! It’s pretty insane and pretty HEFTY in the cash category, but I love that I am not the only one DYING for this.
Plenty of people consider American Idol to be a guilty pleasure. I am not one of those people. I am a proud American Idol lover. Last year I was bored during a show of songs I didn’t care about though, so I decided to “live blog” during the show. Well, to my surprise people were amused by this…even my HUMOR! Got me… I decided to keep it up and continue to live blog on American Idol and it actually started to draw in quite a bit of people from around the net, and even world! Hundreds of people were reading it. How the hell did that happen? While it wound down towards the end, I decided that since this is Simon Cowell’s last year on American Idol, it was probably the last year it will actually be relevant, so another year of live blogging it is. +Continue Reading
I was introduced to so many comedians this year, but Tucker Max’s book that was released in January of 2009 is definitely taking the award for best book of the year. They even made it into an indie movie, I haven’t seen it yet, but I am DYING to. If you have a sense of humor and don’t care about a guy admitting and describing his douche bag ways. READ THIS.
