Random ThoughtsBefore I dive into this… you should read this Wired article from a couple years ago about Yelp and some “fraud allegations.” Article Here Very short version is that Yelp was being accused (by many) of strong-arming small businesses into paying up to bury negative reviews and “favorite” positive ones to get a better overall review on the service. Those are some pretty serious allegations for a site that is supposed to be user driven [...]

Phones & AppsReally short version: it’s awesome. The rest… The 3GS was my first iPhone… so I was bit late to the game in a way. I had owned a first generation iPod Touch a while back and fell in love with the apps (once the App Store opened). I knew I had to be able to get more use out of it on more than just wifi. So as soon as my Helio contract was up [...]

Phones & AppsI just submitted a review for the Mophie Juice Pack Air on Amazon… since it is not visible yet (waiting for approval), I thought I’d copy/paste it here for people to read. Suffice it to say that I’m REALLY disappointed in this thing… especially for its price. Here’s my review… I’m going to be going on a long flight soon and wanted a little bit of extra life to my 3GS. Figured why not get [...]

Nerdy Things The Life of MeFor me anyway… if you have something nicer, good for you. This is something I’ve been talking about (probably nonstop) and/or planning for the last 3 years or so. A big-ass TV. Right now I have a 32″ Samsung LCD. It’s not bad. Picked it up a year or two ago. It’s a nice TV for what it is – but I basically bought it to get in the LCD game and with the intention [...]
