I’ve always liked playing games on my mobile phone, at least with the last two phones that I’ve owned. I particularly like simple games like Tetris, Bejeweled, Block Breaker and Bubble Bash. They are an easy way to kill time when waiting for someone or when on a break from work. Before I had a [...]
This has to be a dream right? Imagine paying $5 a month and being able to have every song in the world for free! And you can give the songs to your family and friends, legally!
The Songwriter’s Association of Canada wants every Internet subscriber to pay $5 per month to them since we all pirate [...]
Do you subscribe to any “digital magazines”? I’m not talking about web sites that claim to be magazines. I’m talking about the ones that are actually a true magazine converted to a digital format in which you can flip through the pages like a real magazine.

My mind has been working overtime lately and I couldn’t quite figure out what it was. It has finally hit me.
For the last several years I’ve felt as if I’m not moving forward much, as if time was sort of standing still. I was seeing small changes in my interests but nothing more than little [...]
The battle is all but over. We’re just waiting for the white flag.
According to an article at Ars Technica, the Blu-Ray camp just got another big win. Wal-Mart is dropping HD-DVD. So Best Buy is going to “promote” Blu-Ray. Warner Bros. is going exclusively Blu-Ray.

No, I’m not drunk nor taking one too many pills (or anything else that might spring to mind). I just wanted to give a shout out to the website StumbleUpon.
I recently discovered this site and decided to add the toolbar to my Firefox browser. I was skeptical about how useful it would be. But I [...]
A chill ran down my spine the other day and again this morning. Internet service providers are looking to implement a fee structure where you pay for your usage. On the surface, that sounds okay. But, when I think about it again, it doesn’t sound okay.
Here’s what I see happening.
Most claims, from Internet providers, are [...]
Okay, my sister was a huge fan of “The Donny and Marie Show” and I liked Donny Osmond in his run as “Joseph” in “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat“. But that is about as close as I get to discussing the Osmonds, normally.
Last month, all the television bigwigs got together for the NATPE convention. [...]
Well, my reason for going to the bank will soon be one fewer. CheckFree Corp has announced a new service where you can scan your check (both sides) and send the image to your bank so that it can be deposited! This is a US service, but I hope something like it will come to [...]
