Congratulations to Katie she is our Lenovo A63 system winner. Big thank you to everyone that participated, this was our biggest response to a contest to date. Some interesting feedback from the last show and my comments to those comments. Big thank you to the Ohana for all that you do. I did not get the insider out this weekend
Okay, it's been three days of watching the Tour de France online and my experience has been less than perfect. The audio has been fine, but the video has been, mostly, bad. The Prologue, on Saturday, froze continuously while we tried to watch the On-Demand version. Yesterday's Stage 1 was pretty close to prefect. Today's Stage 2 was great until
I wanted to give everyone a heads up. GoDaddy has made some changes to its shopping cart, (see below) where you would enter Promo and Source codes. I know that my audiences saves a ton of money every month using my GoDaddy promo codes so I wanted to make sure you were aware of the changes. Also as a reminder

Some of you will know that I'm a Linux user from my previous posts. I'm not a distro-tart: I tend to stick with a particular Linux distribution rather than swap between the different flavours. I started out over 15 years ago with an early Slackware release before moving to Red Hat around version 5 (1998?). I then hopped over to SuSE for
Get ready for a world where everything is on demand and à la carte. Traditional broadcasting is going to change whether it wants to or not. Marketing will be forced to change in profound ways. As a result, content-making will also go through a major metamorphosis. Marketing and traditional broadcasting have long had an interesting relationship that has had a
For those of you with a cable or satellite DVR or TiVo, Western Digital has updated their My Book AV DVR Expander hard drives. Among other things, is the addition of a USB port, to the already existing eSATA port. That means the drives are now compatible with the Sony PS3 and other media devices such as camcorders. This is
I love ebooks. They could become an invaluable part of everyones life, especially for the student. Can you imagine being a student where you could search your text books, copy and paste for your study notes or a term paper? The program integrates with the word processor for automatic documentation and crediting. The reader searches the books in your library
I’ve been living with my HTC Evo now for a few weeks, long enough where I can make a few informed observations about the device. The Evo’s 4.3 inch multi-touch screen is superb. I’ve been surprised by the brightness and readability of the Evo’s screen even in a vehicle or outdoors in sunlight. The screen is big enough to be
So now that I’ve cut the cord with Dish Network, I’ve started digging deeper into the instant streaming material available on Netflix. It seems that most of the programs I would have watched on Discovery, TLC or History – the three channels I watched 99% of the time -- are available as season DVD sets streaming via Netflix.

For those still looking for a set-top box, the Popbox is now slated for release on July 23rd. This is another promising release, coming on the heels of Roku, but well ahead of Boxee.
