In case you haven’t heard, newspapers aren’t doing too well out there. Video stores are disappearing. Everything is going digital now. Even books. Problem is – people don’t really want to sit at the computer to read the news. It requires a different kind of experience. The Ipad gives it, and the Droid-powered tablets sure to be coming out...

OK, so there is an issue with the Iphone 4 antenna. Got it. But, judging from the way many in the tech blog world are treating it, this is not only the only thing happen in the world, but it is Armageddon itself. Are you kidding me? Look at Techmeme right now (see below). This issue dominates the page. And now you got a Senator chiming in about it? Dave...

By now, if you have an iPhone or are in the market for one, you have probably heard about the antenna placement and reception debacle which has received plenty of coverage.

The move has not been made yet. It is possible that something may rise its head and make me reconsider. But, I’m fairly sure my wife and I are going to get rid of our Iphones and get Droid powered phones. One may think it is about the network.

(iAd by the way is the most ridiculous title for Apple’s advertising platform because you as the consumer are not advertising...

Skype over the years has proven itself to be faithful reliable service. Computer-to-Computer “calls” have always been free, but you have to pay in order to connect to regular phone numbers – although it should be said their rates have always been very competitive and a good deal for the money. According to Skype’s blog, they currently...

When it comes to TLDs (top level domains, i.e. COM, NET, ORG, etc.) on the internet, several attempts have been made to generate the popularity of COM. All have failed, but that doesn’t mean the people who give us alternatives to COM stop trying. One of the weirder TLDs out there is TEL. This is billed as a mobile calling card of sorts.. I think.

In the United States, unfortunately it is the case where most people are only aware of three wireless carriers, that being Verizon, AT&T and Sprint. Why? Advertising, of course.
