Best Practical iPod Accessory

  • 30 Sep, 2005

Have you heard of the Griffin SmartDeck? It’s quite possibly the best iPod accessory that is also very practical and reasonably priced.

New iPod First Thoughts

  • 30 Sep, 2005

Well I’ve had Chester, my new iPod, for over a week now and I haven’t gotten to play with him much. My old iPod is working just fine and my new iTrip hasn’t arrived just yet. However, here are my current issues with the iPod. First, Apple cuts costs by packing the iPod with a […]

Google Video Goes Flash

  • 26 Sep, 2005

Finally, Google Video has gone Flash! No more downloading the Google Video player (PC only) or worrying about the video being in windows media format, or avi, or mpg, or real or whatever.

Are you obsessed with smilies? Well Smiley Central can help feed your addiction. While I was out at SES, the Ask people mentioned Smiley Central because it’s one of their projects.

We had a great time at the Minnesota State Fair today. Started off with a pork-chop on a stick at 10 am and it was great. Also ate Australian potato skins, some of a funnel cake, mini cinnamon rolls with ice cream, had a beer, a malt, some pop and I think that was it. […]
