It's been a long and difficult journey but I've finally gotten to the point where I actually understand the Pokemon Trading Card game. Yeah, I know, duh! But first, I have to share why this took so long. I posted on MorninPaper here and here about my difficulty in grasping the concept. I was on the verge [...]

Post Post Since I wasn't glued to the tele tonight I had to see this as it splattered across the interwebs: the first commercial starring former Microsoft CEO Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld. Share on Facebook

I must admit I watched all of this with amusement as site after site jumped on the rumor of a new Kindle without doing much investigation or speaking to the horses mouth. Now Amazon has flatly denied a new version of the Kindle being released this year according to the New York Times. Bits blog [...]

I found this really great software while doing my usual goofing off endless searching to find the best software to bring to the attention of MorninPaper readers called The Journal.         Share on Facebook

I was just about ready to shut down the computer for the night (yes, even we uber dedicated MorninPaper writers think about sleep) when this little ditty popped up on Engadget courtesy of the Wall Street Journal. Microsoft's new $300 million campaign (one of Redmond's largest ever) is set to launch with a $10 million [...]

Palm almost had me when first pictures and then video popped up about the new Palm Treo Pro, I was seriously liking what I saw. Well, sorry Palm, Engadget Mobile got their hands on an actual phone and provided dozens of pictures and the unboxing. There's even a shot of the Treo Pro next to that [...]

While most people have been glued to the Olympics (and rightfully so, we should all be proud of our athletes competing on this particular world stage) I must confess my browser and full attention has been elsewhere. As you all know, I'm probably the oldest self-confessing Pokeholic around after coming out of the shadows some weeks [...]

I’ve often heard about writers who have characters “speak” to them as the beginning of their “muse” for their next great six figure advance novel. They’d speak about it in hushed, reverent tones just to make sure the rest of us aspiring authors can understand they truly have an inside line to fame and fortune [...]

Everything you always wanted to know is right here for the reading at APC.com   This is like a smorgasbord of every single thing you'll need to know about this [...]

Looks like Palm is happily counting their money (okay, not as much as others, but still) and letting the world know they've sold 2 million Centro's since launching the device in October of 2007. From the Official Palm Blog: It seems like just yesterday that someone purchased the one-millionth Centro, and now we've sold two million [...]

Microsoft finally took the veil of anticipation (term used loosely) off their new web site showing average Joe and Jane Consumer "blown away" by Vista. Dubbed the "Mojave Experiment," Microsoft invited Windows XP users to a sit down chat about what they thought was wrong with Vista then let them use "Mojave" which was really Vista [...]

Hey, for all you early adopters who've got the coin to not have to wait for a carrier like the rest of poor slobs, BGR is reporting a company called Mobile City Online has the BlackBerry Bold available for pre-order. Expected date in stock? August 14th. Expected price? $699.99 I have to agree with BGR [...]

With California's recently enacted law requiring everyone to use a Bluetooth headset while driving, a couple warnings are going out to make sure your information and conversations are secure as you happily jabber with your best friend or discuss your corporate strategy to dethrone Google. C|Net News has posted some security tips for keeping whatever [...]

Okay, this is just ridiculous. Nintendo president Satoru Iwata is claiming he still can't promise you'll be able to pick up a Nintendo Wii at any store for the upcoming Christmas shopping season. As being reported by Wii Fanboy: Whether or not you've been able to find Wiis in stores as of late, the holiday season is [...]

Well, looks like it's confession time. Alas, I fear I am way beyond mere fanboy at this stage. I'm starting to have this recurring dream... I'm in a basement room of a church. All of the chairs are arranged in a circle and I'm standing up in front of one of them. Around me are people of [...]

Seems Microsoft is (finally getting) busy with updates and releases for all things Live. Gizmodo is reporting Windows Live Messenger is ready for download for your BlackBerry straight from the RIM site. Not having a BlackBerry (yet) I can't vouch for how it works. Of course it's Live Messenger so it does work. Oh, never mind. But [...]

I loved writing that headline since it's been a long time coming for Windows Live to come closer to the desktop version of Windows Live on Windows Mobile. Of course, I've had Windows Live on my Motorola Q9h since I got my phone back in October of 2008 but have always found using it somewhat tedious [...]

Windows Live Mesh went live yesterday to somewhat understated fanfare. Easily buried under the Apple's MobileMe announcement and launch, Live Mesh was announced way back in April by Ray Ozzie, Microsoft's now chief software architect. What Live Mesh does is create a way to keep all of your files synchronized from your laptop to your desktop [...]
