Update: OK, looks like there’s no camera! Still a good idea though. I’m reading that yet another version will be out first half of next year, so I’ll hold out hope! I know there’s alot of chatter about the new iPhone’s possible release next week, but I think it’s merited. One thing I really think…
So, I was listening to Pandora again today. Ron Block (from Alison Krauss & Union Station) was featured from his album “Far Away Land”. I love this one song. So, I head to Amazonmp3.com, search for Ron Block, click buy MP3 (99 cents). From their I had to download their music manager. I was a…
Here’s a quick helpful post. If you have a smart phone with a browser, try out Opera’s mini browser (www.operamini.com). It’s a good bit speedier and gives you bookmarking features and such. You can even sync it with your desktop Opera browser to keep the same bookmarks. Give it a try. It’s free!
Updated 05/24/08 So, www.macrumors.com has a hunch that iPhone 2.0 will support 3G at theoretical speeds of up to 43 Mbps. My cable modem runs only at 4 Mbps . . . is that just crazy talk?!

If you run many programs at once (as I do), you know that using the Alt-Tab keys in Windows is invaluable. However, I have trouble figuring out what programs are which. If I have 3 or 4 instances of one program open, I have to guess which one is the one I want. Well, I…
I was helping my 6-year-old daughter with her homework tonight. It was a project on insects. She chose the firefly, so we were debating the ins and outs of color, number of legs, etc. We were at the kitchen counter when she asked a question from further down the worksheet. “How long do lightening bugs…
I’ve always been leary about those “speed up your connection” software schemes. I mean, even my feeble logic seemed to say my net connection was going to be only as fast as my provider let it be. Well, I recently found out about OpenDNS. This is a service that speeds up your browsing by giving…
And there you have it. Nintendo’s latest video game system is, well, all it’s cracked up to be in my opinion. We’ve had it about 2 months and it really is “fun for the whole family”. Want to guess who the most active player is? Yep, my wife. She’s reached pro status (quickly) and can’t…
In my previous post, I mention Amazon MP3 briefly. It’s a known fact that iTunes is the leader in online distribution of music. That’s all well and good and they’ve definitely changed the face of how music is purchased by consumers. My beef with iTunes is that in order to play [most of] purchased tracks is…
So, I’ve often wondered time and time again how to get my singing group on iTunes. Since some of our albums are independent of our label, we’ve always entertained the thought of getting the music onto iTunes in order for radio listeners around the country (and world) to easily access our music.
