Yesterday, Google Maps added a couple of new features, though like most Google add-ons, they’re not really named anything specific. The most important feature to me was the addition of “dragging the blue line to where you want to go.”
Essentially, this allows a Google Map to be customized with a certain route you want to [...]

I’m not sure if this will work, but I seem to have found a tiny spark of luck. The power’s out, my cell phone has zero signal, and I only have about ten minutes of battery life left on my laptop. About thirty minutes ago, we climbed up on the roof to hopefully protect ourselves, [...]

Reason #953,493 to not get a Zune. You may end up looking like this guy. He also included a closeup, complete with gross skin. Click for full size (if you’re brave).
Granted, I may be an iPod fanboy, but I don’t have any permanent marks with my love of the device. Furthermore, I think he would [...]

Were the stars aligned over Redmond or over Cupertino today? I’m not really sure. Three different products that allow you to run Windows on your Intel powered Mac were updated with new versions and features simultaneously today.
Apple’s Boot Camp 1.3 Beta came out, and added support for the MacBook Pro’s backlit keyboards, improved graphics drivers, [...]

Up to this point my life was incomplete. Amongst my basic needs are the need to cook proteins for consumption (i.e. grilling), and to listen to my iPod. Previously, these two necessary activities had a firm line dividing them.
Enter the George Foreman iGrill.
With a 200 square inch cooktop and 10 watt speaker system and iPod [...]

Since we’ve been back from London, I’ve managed to get up at 6:00AM almost every day. Unfortunately, I would like to sleep longer, maybe an hour or two, but neck/back pain, and a bit of a cough causes me to wake up. At least that first cup of coffee in the morning feels really good, [...]

I figured I haven’t posted in a while, so time to give an update on my day to day activities.

According to StupidTester.com, I’m only 7% stupid.
It’s full of logic questions, and some trick questions, but it’s quick to take. One other note, it hasn’t bee updated for Pluto’s bannination from the club, so make sure you take that in account when answering the planets question.

Even though I regularly backup my iTunes library via rsync, it’s still backed up locally, to one of my Firewire hard drives. I considered backing up online, however, with a 140GB iTunes library, costs became prohibitive. Enter Bandwagon. Bandwagon will be offering unlimited backup space for $69/year introductory pricing, and $99/year for regular pricing. I’ve [...]
