We all have ideas. Sometimes they’re good. Sometimes they’re bad. And sometimes we think they’re good even if they suck. Faced with the simple problems we all encounter each day, its common to rhetorically state how “it would be nice if ____” (fill in the blank). The only problem with these spontaneous ideas is our [...]

How ‘Bout Some TwittaBling
January 19th, 2010
Nothing says “I love you” like the gift of jewelry. And while this decade’s version of personal communications includes “tweeting” your feelings and weight (in fewer than 140 characters) across the Internet for the world to see, it’s unlikely for most people that gifting some TwittaBling to your “significant other” will adequately compliment an online proclamation of your love.

Preserve Your Twitter Wisdom with a TweetBook
November 23rd, 2009
Like Twitter? Well so do around 18 million other people. And while it’s safe to say that most people’s tweets are pretty insignificant (I don’t care what you’re eating right now or how much you weigh), everyone occasionally has a few wise thoughts easily summed up in 140 characters or less.

In fact, it’s pretty much single-handedly responsible for my recent online shopping price comparison complacency. Since it consistently offers the lowest prices including shipping on tech products I buy, [...]
How to really let your friends know they’re important to you…
September 22nd, 2009
While I’m a big fan of the social networking revolution and the endless stream of information telling me what my friends are eating, watching, doing, playing, thinking, and wearing, the new service announced today by Lunchster definitely has me scratching my head as to whether this whole social networking thing may be going a bit too [...]
Enhance your Pho.to
September 22nd, 2009
The market for sub-$200 digital cameras is huge, largely due to the fact that cameras at this price point have very forgiving automatic modes which capture good amateur pictures in almost any environment. But unfortunately, photos from these cameras are rarely perfect and typically have some color misrepresentation, red eye effect, or other defects. Arguably, [...]
