The problem with most newspaper technology writers and even many technology “analysts” is they briefly read the AP Headlines before scribbling out some output to earn a paycheck … the reality is why many newspapers are failing both financially and their readers – they don’t bother doing any investigative work or any kind – they’ll [...]

Why the Droid is No iPhone Killer & Really Just a Hobby
How Microsoft Decided to Name Their New Search Engine – 2006 Style!
As Microsoft is anywhere from 2-5 years behind everyone else (Our next Zune will have a TOUCHSCREEN – this September!) …
They just discovered this site on the internet (maybe they really have to upgrade their search) where you can watch videos:
Bing!
Marketing: Kids on the internet like the sound of BING!
Coming in 2012 – an exercise [...]
Microsoft Advertising: It’s Just For Ourselves So We Feel Better …
The latest Microsoft ad that tells everyone an iPod will really cost you $30,000 while a Zune will only cost you $15 a month is really aimed at NO ONE other than Microsoft employees.
Apparently morale is so bad at MS they need a national campaign of $300 million to feel better about themselves.
I’m okay with [...]
The Two-Seconds Google “Monopoly”
While Google is thought of as this omnipotent being …
The current status of Google is really the purest form of supply & demand that may EVER exist.
You, as a consumer – can change from Google to ANY other search engine LITERALLY in 2-seconds or however long it takes you to type a new search engine [...]
What Nintendo & Sony Has to Fear From the iPhone (& iTouch)
First, the iPhone is not a Nintendo DSi or Sony PSP “killer.”
That word is misused like ‘awesome.’
But the iPhone does put a big crimp into the maximum market of the Nintendo DSi and the Sony PSP.
As with any electronic device, the race is to the ‘mass market’ or around 100-million units sold. What this means [...]
If You Want Your Kids to Hate You … Get them the Mapple V-Touch!
Well, it looks like it and it’s CHEAP (er) than an iTouch.
I’m sure the kids will understand in these tough economic times, you need to cut back – it’s 82% OFF! Such a deal!
And people wonder why eBay’s Store is failing against Amazon – can’t imagine why with savings like this!
Teach your kids that it’s [...]
Apple Q1 Earnings: Only a Shock to Analysts & the Clueless
Perhaps every analyst who thought Apple wouldn’t hit their announced Q1 numbers should take a step back and turn in their bonus?
The most obvious clue is that EVERY publicly traded corporation in America announces numbers and are required by law to update those numbers if they will deviate substantially in the negative aspect … in [...]
Apple iPhone & AT&T: BFF Now & Forever …
A lot of people seem to hate AT&T and a lot of Verizon users seem to think it’s possible that Apple will switch carriers or at least, add a second carrier in the US but I would find it hard to believe any change is coming to the US.
First, I have no great love for [...]
Apple iPhone App Review: Skype – A Great Call
For those unaware, Skype is an internet telephony service.
At its most basic level, you can make and receive calls from other Skype users for free.
While Skype was not the first to utilize VOIP (Voice Over Internet), it was the first to organize it on a large scale and make it relatively painless to use. While [...]
iPhone App Review – MLB At Bat 2009 is a Grand Slam
Couldn’t resist the obvious baseball cliche but MLB.com At Bat 2009 is pretty great …
You’d expect the obvious features such as live boxscores or even live pitch tracking …
And as you can see at the bottom of the screen, you can tap to access (from left to right), GAMEDAY is live pitch & play description [...]
