Warning, I’m about to RANT:
I’m a huge fan of Google Maps.  It’s really a great stand alone app and it keeps getting better but I’m amazed that when they added Latitude they did not include (even just a basic form of) instant messaging with your [...]

I’m a horrible blogger.  I’ve had the FreeTalk Everyman headset for months now and used it countless times, I’ve also had the Yamaha PSG-01s for a month or so now and haven’t blogged about either one.  I could make excuses but I won’t.  I will [...]

So who uses Twitter?  Ok, I’m kidding.  Have you used Topify though?  I have been using them for months now.  Topify is a service that intercepts the half baked emails that Twitter sends you and spices them up.  When someone adds me on Twitter I get an email from Topify alerting me to this and [...]
