  • Friday Video — ummm…

    As Boing­Bo­ing says, the Inter­net is weird.  Moongina.

  • Another day, another video

    Who is @laryssaw and why does she have this fix­a­tion on ‘The Most (fill in the blank) Man in the World’ videos? She sent me a new one (below) one earli­er today, and this unfor­get­table gem from last week. Steve Nash is the most ridicu­lous man in the world Oh, and be nice to Laryssa, she’s…

  • Chuck Norris — eat your heart out.

    You know, I’m thinkin’ Chuck Nor­ris could learn a thing or two from this guy. He’s got pan­ache, gets the girls, does­n’t seem to break a sweat in tight situ­ations, and occa­sion­ally drinks beer. Hat Tip to Larysa at Click­free 🙂

  • It’s the iPlatform, not the iPad

    Steve’s just announced the iPad (not the best name selec­tion in the world, but it’ll do), and after watch­ing the announce­ment event being repor­ted by vari­ous online media, includ­ing our own Future Shop Techb­log­gers, I’m struck by the impres­sion that the hard­ware is cool, inter­est­ing and looks great, but the iPad hard­ware is not the…

  • Apple Tablet prediction as a game

    So, tomor­row’s the big day that Apple lifts the veil on pro­jects under devel­op­ment and ready for release in the next year. The myth­ic­al Tab­let is likely the biggest announce­ment tomor­row, and tech­no­logy pun­dits have not been shy in pre­dict­ing what the device will have (or not). This all sounds too ser­i­ous to me, so let’s have…

  • Awesome free iPhone app creates sales for other iphone apps

    Yep, it seems odd, but a very cool crowd­sourced recom­mend­a­tion engine for iPhone apps is cre­at­ing a bunch of sales of oth­er iPhone apps. Which is good, because when there’re a lot of apps to choose from — a sol­id tool (not tied to the Apple Store recom­mend­a­tion sys­tem, which has been gamed in the…

  • How the Apple Tablet can really succeed

    Giv­en that Apple isn’t really pay­ing atten­tion to my mus­ings, I’m rather free to go on about things I *think* they can do to make their products, and make them better. I’ve been fol­low­ing Apple’s tab­let designs since the New­ton Mes­sage pad. An inter­est­ing device, yet not very practical. I’m com­pletely smit­ten by my iPod…

  • 6 Things I want to see in an Apple Tablet

    Giv­en the excitement/buzz/hype around the ‘poten­tial’ Apple Tab­let announce­ment this Wed­nes­day, I thought I’d add to the Apple Tab­let word­count by list­ing a few things I’d like to see in this cur­rently-myth­ic­al device. …more This post is an excerpt from one of my weekly posts on the Future Shop Techb­log. Check out the full post…

  • Lego Christmas ornaments

    What would Christ­mas be without dec­or­a­tions, and Lego! The two just go togeth­er like peas and carrots. Since the loc­al Toys ‘R Us is across the street, I found these two items  just inside the door. How could I resist 🙂 What bet­ter way to bright­en up a drab grey office cube. They’re small, descrete, yet…

  • Queen + Muppets = Rhaposody (of the Bohemian kind)

    The fol­low­ing post is a Quick­Hit™ — an art­icle or post I found online and thought was import­ant enough to share dir­ectly with you. Of course, you’ll see my thoughts or opin­ions pre­pen­ded or appen­ded to this post, oth­er­wise I’m just scrap­ing con­tent, and that’s not the intent. This made the rounds yes­ter­day, but I…
