I have a number of Apple products and I’ve been a bit of a fan in the past. Apple products of the past represented genuine value. Not only would the operating system continue to work well on aging hardware, but Apple products used to be repairable. I’ve had a Sprint HTC Evo 4G for about two and a half years.
As I prepare to record my 800th show tomorrow, all of this would not have been possible without GoDaddy as a sponsor. A great deal of the gear and innovative things that I have developed in my show would not be possible without GoDaddy supporting the show. This site runs on a GoDaddy server that I pay for, and save
People who love to read will take the opportunity to squeeze in another chapter, or a few more pages, any chance they get. Today, many people are reading books on their Kindle, (or other tablet device). Or, they are listening to the audio version of a book that they got from Audible.com. Whispersync for Voice is something new that connects
Perhaps the only light side of crime is when robberies go horribly wrong and end up as amusing stories. It's even better when there is video of the failure, which is becoming more common given the prevalence of surveillance cameras in our society. Such was the case recently when three would-be thugs attempted to rob an Apple store by smashing their BMW
Upgraded to the latest version of Wirecast and little did I know but they delete your custom recording profiles. So I recorded in a 4:3 format versus a 16:9 which really sucks.. This is one of the severe limitations of using software like this it is unpredictable and unreliable. Ok back to Hawaii for Show 800. Should be a lot
The iPhone 5 was launched yesterday with the usual Apple pizazz. It looks like a good solid update but there's the inevitable criticism about the lack of NFC, wireless charging, average screen size, etc. Much as I'd like to see a high-end device, Apple doesn't need a hero phone based on hardware features and it doesn't take much analysis to figure
The coolest thing about the Apple Keynote Event, at least for me, was Clumsy Ninja. I want one! Clumsy Ninja is a new game that was created by NaturalMotion Games. It features a cute, cartoon, ninja character that isn't very good at being a ninja. You have to teach him to become a better, more skilled, (but still adorable) ninja.
Alright, I realize that based on my rant yesterday, and now this, I look like an Apple hater and I can assure you that I am really not. I am, however, upset about the previously mentioned connector issue that caused my daughter to decide she no longer wanted the new iPhone, and I also have a sense of humor, which
Before you get up-in-arms and act like an Apple fanboy, hear me out. Today Apple rolled out their iPhone 5. It will, of course, own the news cycle for a day or two. I get that. They have a loyal following, and it's somewhat deserved. After all, they make some great products. Maybe they aren't really the innovators that everyone
Coming this Fall, a tablet that is designed for children to use. It is called Tabeo, and will be sold exclusively at Toys R Us. For $150 you can pick up one of these kid-friendly tablets for your child, and avoid the problem of having to “share” your own, personal, tablet device. The Tabeo comes with parental controls that are
The launch of 4G services in the UK by Everything Everywhere today has been heralded by the majority of the tech blogs and news sites as a long-overdue success. But is this a victory for common-sense or has Ofcom simply managed to cover-up its own incompetence? (For those outside the UK, Ofcom is the regulator and competition authority for the UK communications industries.) Here's
Ouya was the darling of the tech news cycle not long ago as they rocketed up the KickStarter charts to (likely) record donations (no real records seem to exist). If you aren't familiar, Ouya is a proposed gaming console that will be based on the Android operating system, and is expected to launch in early 2013. The box has been
