Send to KindleTweet I toyed with the idea of buying a juicer, but even just spending $100 on a juicer is expensive because then you need to buy greens and veggies weekly. Instead, I’ve settled on eating kale and lettuce, and juicing the rest. Getting the consistency one might get from a juice bar is [...]

Send to KindleTweet This actually makes me want to buy another baby present. European company Withings has come up with a number of products that enable DIY health monitoring, from scales that track your weight and BMI online, to home blood pressure monitors. But, the one I love is the small square device that alongside [...]

Send to KindleTweet I never thought I’d say this, but I might buy a Dell. The new XPS13 is the closest to what I’m looking for in an Ultrabook. But before I get into the specs, here are the major selling points: $999 starting price, standard SSD (128GB base), and 100GB of free storage on [...]

Send to KindleTweet Frustrated to near tears the other night I rang Verizon Wireless and asked if I could upgrade three weeks early. The nice southern belle on the phone got manager approval to do so and recommended, after I asked about size, the 16GB iPhone. I was thinking even if it wasn’t big enough, I’d [...]

Send to KindleTweet There is a god and he started tinywatchproductions. If you haven’t seen any of these videos, you are missing out on a real laugh. My cousin first sent me the iPhone video. Then I added them to my YouTube favorites. Now I’m a total junkie. From explaining “the Quantitative Easing” while slamming “the Goldman Sachs,” to [...]
Apple: A Giant Underdog?

Send to KindleTweet It seems no matter how big Apple grows, it always maintains underdog status. The U.S. government’s supposed antitrust investigations (WSJ) are insanely arbitrary and their regulation of food, media and technology equally random. In recent months, anyone that reads a major metropolitan newspaper would have learned that GMO alfalfa is OK, but Apple [...]

Send to KindleTweet It may come as a surprise, but there are some people that don’t bow to the Apple Gods. Don’t tell Steve. Though I confess to joining the Apple computing cult, I don’t love Apple enough to switch to AT&T for wireless phone service and contrary to what Americans think, I still think [...]

Send to KindleTweet I don’t believe in holiday spending binges, $500 skin creams, New Year’s resolutions, or fad diets. But, in moderation, shopping, nutritional adjustments, short-term goals, and skincare treatments can be paths to temporary happiness. A new lip gloss, a laser facial, or a three-day juice feast may not change your life, but for [...]

To the consumer, Flash is a big deal and the promise of a touch screen tablet with the capability to run Flash and Java might be enough to [...]
