Mac mini and iPod shuffle Impressions

  • 22 Jan, 2005

We stopped by the Apple store today and checked out the ultra tiny, ultra cool Mac minis and iPod shuffles. Yes, they are supposed to be small but until you actually see them you don’t realize how small they are. It’s amazing what Apple can put in such a small area. I was very impressed […]

  • 21 Jan, 2005

As I was checking out the sites (via RSS) that I do on a daily basis I came across the history of MacThemes.net. I skimmed though the article on how the basis for the site was thought up and created and what did I see? Me! 😀 They were nice enough to mention my brief […]

Safari Firefox Theme

  • 20 Jan, 2005

I’ve been looking all over for a good Safari theme for Firefox and finally ran across one that has potential. Ran Aroussi has created a great Safari FireFox theme that has a lot going for it.

Toy Story 3 Without Pixar

  • 20 Jan, 2005

Disney has decided to go on with Toy Story without Pixar. The sequel happy company already has a script for Toy Story 3 and probably is already working on it. I doubt it can be as good as the others seeing as they took out Pixar and Disney sequels don’t do that great. However I’m […]

So, in order to beat the consumers worries, companies are already starting to make trans fat free products. From Oreos to SpaghettiOs. Pretty soon you’ll […]

Technorati Tags

Technorati announced Tags the other day. It is a way to categorize blog posts so others can easily find them. Systems like WordPress already have tags in the form of categories, however you can add more tags if you want. It’s really a simple idea, however I’m not having the best results getting some blogs […]

Reviews: Open Water and the Village

  • 16 Jan, 2005

We watched a few movies this weekend. One was Open Water and one was the Village. Open Water is an independent film made with no crew, no hair and makeup people and on a limited budget. Knowing that it makes the movie even better. I thought the movie was kind of slow, but pretty good. […]
