A New Year
It’s 2012 officially. And so far, things are off to a good start. Of course, when you go vacationing to an awesome place with some of your best friends, you tend to have a good time. That has been the case for this New Year as well. Just like NYE 2011, Kelly and I spent...
New Years Resolutions
Its almost January 1st, so its time for me to make some resolutions for the coming year that I most likely won’t bother trying to achieve. Seeing the video above inspired me to come up with a list. Some of his resolutions actually mirror my own. Be less concerned about what people think I chortled...
Of course it is about the content – Apple TV
As the year comes to a close, many tech sites are speculating on what 2012 will bring. Of course, Apple is always a big subject of debate, what with Steve Jobs having passed on. There was one piece in particular that I read (this one from Ryan Lawler at GigaOM) that made the case that...
My Google Plus Review
Time for another just in time review from your’s truly. Today, I am going to look at Google+, the new social networking offering from Google. Google+ right now is in somewhat of a closed beta, meaning that you need to know someone who is already on the service to get an invitation. Even then, the...
My Falling Skies Premiere Review
Here we go again Cheesy special effects, uninspired aliens and a rag-tag group of unbelievable human resistance fighters. I thought bad science fiction was the exclusive domain of the Syfy channel? It was with great anticipation that I stayed up Sunday night to watch the Falling Skies premiere on TNT. A Steven Spielberg produced science...
Lady Gaga is BlahBlah
Lady Gaga calls critics bullies, especially those who talk about her appearance. Well, you can call people bullies but that doesn’t mean you don’t come off as a demented Madonna wannabe.
5 Reasons YouTube is Superior to Vimeo
Here are 5 reasons why YouTube is a superior platform for creatives to post their video content than Vimeo. 1. Unlimited uploading: YouTube carries no restriction on the amount of video content you can upload. Too often, I found myself having to compromise on my videos due to Vimeo’s arbitrary upload limits. Even with a...
I hate to love advertising
Usually you’d say you love to hate something, but in actuality, at least in my case, i hate to love advertising. Even though i work in the marketing and advertising world, i still get really tired of ads. Not only just the viewing of ads pretty much everywhere i look, but the creation of them,...
So long, Twitter (thank you Howard Stern)
Today I deactivated my Twitter account, and I partly have Howard Stern to thank for it. I started on Twitter back in 2007, after it was debuted at SXSW. Back then you had to really convince people why they should be on the site. It was common to hear people say, “ok that is just...
Oregon Waterfalls
Today I am going to announce (wow, so official) a little side project I’m going to undertake called Oregon Waterfalls. Basically, i really like visiting and taking photos of waterfalls. Back when I lived in Arizona there really wasn’t an opportunity to do the kinds of falls sight-seeing that there is here in Oregon. Over...
What should Howard Stern do?
Howard Stern has a big decision to make. His contract is going to be up here in a few months, and while his soon to be “free agent status” will give him a lot of options, I am actually hoping that he will decide to not re-sign with Sirius. Why? Because I’d love to see...
The Oregon Coast
This weekend we went to the Oregon coast for the first time since our move. It was a very nice time, capped off with some kite flying. I cant even remember the last time i flew a kite. We picked one up that had no breakable parts, as we totally expected we’d crash. It was...
