June 11th, 2008 · No Comments

So unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably heard about the Apple event that is going on this week. Some of you may even be surprised to actually hear that it’s a week long event for developers and not just a 2 hour event where Steve Jobs showed off the new iPhone. [...]

iPhone kits

March 9th, 2008 · No Comments

So, unless you’ve been under a rock, the iPhone SDK was released last Thursday. I’ve been fooling with it since Friday night and I have to say that development for the iPhone is actually quite simple.

Can’t wait for 1.1.1 update of my iPhone so I will be able to hack door locks.

New eBay Weapon

August 27th, 2007 · No Comments

I wasn’t a big fan of GarageSale for doing my eBay auctions but I have to give them some credit, their new app called GarageBuy is quite handy.

Basically you can setup saved searches and bid on items straight from the app. There are some issues I’ve hit but there are very minor. The biggest issue [...]

I must not have much of a social life.

August 17th, 2007 · No Comments

Honestly how much do you fucking talk that you have a 300 page bill? I don’t mean to use such a harsh expletive but I just can’t fathom the amount of time that you waste having enough text message and calls that your bill is that large.

Not that AT&T is out of the woods [...]

From the "Disappointed" department

August 6th, 2007 · No Comments

Looks like Fake Steve Jobs has been outed by the New York Times.
I’m kind of bummed about this (not like having a pet die or something) because it was a fun read and not knowing who the author was added to it.
Namaste FSJ.

Yes, today is iPhone day. And yes, I will be picking one up today.
The line has already started at the Reston Town Center’s AT&T store. I’m not too worried. Though with all the worrying that Jessi is doing (she doesn’t want the lack of iPhone to ruin our vacation next week.. it won’t [...]

June 26th, 2007 · 1 Comment

new music

April 23rd, 2007 · 1 Comment

Anyone out there listen to the “iTunes New Music Tuesday Podcast”?
Roxy isn’t doing it any more. According to Bob The Producer they “got rid of Roxy”.
I don’t like the new girl, Kim. She has no flair, no emotion and gives these dead pan explanations of the artists and music.
I’ll still be listening to [...]
