Twitter has a job opening for a unicorn slayer.

  • 31 Jan, 2012

Did you see Twitter’s awesome recruiting video? I have to say, it got my attention because it’s cheesy awesome. http://youtu.be/vccZkELgEsU While listing open jobs, I noticed that they are even hiring a unicorn slayer. Now I think that may be illegal, with them being endangered and all, but you don’t find that job to many places. I think I’m going to stay […]

How to update your Facebook status so only some of your friends see it.

  • 29 Jan, 2012

It seems like everyone is on Facebook these days. I have high school friends, co-workers, relatives and even my mother in-law follows my updates.

I’m not a huge Android fan but I do have an Android phone that I want to love. I’m a Google fan, but the phone has not been as good as I thought it should be. I think the real issue with Android is the fact that carriers modify it. Once Google releases an update […]

Google Music

I’ve been using Google Music for a while now, but my biggies issues is that the app uploads everything in iTunes. This means that it uploaded Christmas & children’s music whether I wanted it or not.
