That problem was message threading. I despise message threading. It complicates what
The Boxee Box is still more than a month away and review units are not much closer. However, the press department has put out some great photos that I was given access to. There's not much to say that you haven't heard about this device already. We have been waiting longer that we expected and much longer than we wanted.

They are in our pockets, purses, sitting on the seat next to us in the car. My teenager goes nowhere without her phone, and I go nowhere without my iPod, and rarely without my laptop as well.

Blockbuster was unable to reconfigure their business structure to compete effectively with Netflix. It seems that Netflix has won the ongoing war. Streaming
The big news today in the Tech Space was the purchase of TechCrunch.com and associated properties by AOL. The team over at TechCrunch.com has been a leader in the blogging space for a while now. I want to congratulate the entire team and wish them more success in the future. The acquisition of a company is always a good thing

This weekend simply crushed me and it hit me like a ton of bricks during the show tonight. Nevertheless the show has to go on. Details in the show and some cool pictures at the bottom of the show notes. Saw the F22 Raptor perform at an airshow this weekend and what an amazing airplane. Two new contest started on

No one likes spending more money than they should. For a couple of years I have been using Survey Monkey to do a variety of surveys and my renewal time is upon me. I currently pay nearly $240.00 a year for the service. Sow while I was looking around on GoDaddy tonight I ventured into their business solutions section and
