In recent months, I’ve become an avid Twitter user, updating my status and opinion several times a day. When I need to compare different Twitter Streams, such as my Friends, a Search of a Topic, and my Direct Messages, it ends up taking about 4-5 tabs in Firefox. Instead of fiddling around with them, I [...]

Remember, you can go here to get information on the Windows 7 beta. This is a recap of the posts, my experience, and the future direction I will take with Windows 7.
This post was NOT written under the influence of Microsoft Mind Control.
This has been the most exciting week that Windows has ever seen. I [...]

Well, wasn’t yesterday fun? It was the same sort of feeling you get after getting off an over-the-top rollercoaster. A feeling of sickness, while adrenaline pumps it away slowly. With Ballmer’s keynote only a few days previous, geeks, enthusiasts and IT professionals were planning to download, test, and personally or publicly review the most anticipated [...]

That’s right everyone. Apple is about to go downhill. Unless there is a serious backflip in current market/economic conditions, Apple’s 1900s pricing will bring the company to its knees whether or not the more reasonably priced product lines, such as the iPod and the iPhone, keep their current market share. 
Yesterday’s keynote by Apple at Macworld [...]

I’ve been an administrator on GeeksVent for a while now, and it has, and continues to be, a great place to meet fellow-minded people. I’ve been on holidays, and come back to see that @theebayk1d has opened a contest, which ends in two days. The winner will receive an unconditional US$40 gift card for ThinkGeek.com, where [...]

As most Tech-Savvy people with connections are finding out, Windows 7 has the potential to really hit it off with users. I’ve been passed a copy of the pre-beta O/S as it has made its way around the circles in my group of friends, and I am impressed. Really impressed. I have had a really [...]

In the recent media, Apple has revealed that this year’s Macworld Conference and Expo, will be the final it will appear for. The keynotes presented here by Steve Jobs, and his friends, have unleashed some of the most influential products, such as the Apple TV, the iPhone, and new generations of the iPod, and the [...]

I’m probably a bit late to the game on this one, but I found a petition that is REALLY worth signing. GetUp is an Australian organisation that has been a huge part of keeping our thoughts in the eyes of the politicians, the public servants, and the bureaucrats. One of their highpoints was in the [...]

With the recent release of the blog-piper (new word for me) “Ping.FM” (http://www.ping.fm/) allowing users to post to almost any service from one box, and one submit button, I believe this shows the expanding popularity of blogging, micro-blogging, and its variants, worldwide. This was also proven yesterday, with articles from most news services regarding the [...]

This was an article I found in the Brisbane Commuters’ Newspaper “mX”. (Brisbane, Australia). I think it is very true, but that people need to realize that if it is Windows, funnily enough, a restart does the job. Simply closing the program and starting it up again doesn’t always do that job. Sometimes the framework [...]
