On Notice!
I’m so bummed that Verizon didn’t show any new handsets at CTIA. They released a few new services at the show, but that was it. I’m stuck!! I want to stay with Verizon because of their great coverage, but I also want to dump em because of their boring handset choices. I’ll give them until late October to start offering better/new/cool phones. If they don’t...

Apple use to be so good at keeping the world in the dark about new products but with so many people involved with the manufacturing of Apple product sooner or later...
Team Browser
I downloaded, installed, used, then un-installed the Google Chrome browser. Yes it’s NEW, and yes it’s fast, but with all of that along with it’s fancy features…there’s just something about it I didn’t like (I can’t put my finger on it). So along with FireFox 3 (my main browser) I have Flock which has great flickr integration of which I never use. I still...
MacWorld
My plans to register early for MacWorld Conference & Expo has failed. The conference website has yet to provide links to the registration page in fact, I’m not even sure if the conference dates are going to stay the same. Registration was to start September 2nd and were mow six days over due…somethings going on “and I don’t like it!”. I’ve attended the past...
Uninstalling Google Chrome. Something about it I just don’t like. Maybe I’ll reinstall it after a few revisions./months
