Work Sucks is all kinds of awesome. Finally I found a type-in domain name that is actually what the domain name promises. Like they say, if you are a “go-getter” you’d have to go and browse somewhere. Work sucks is for slackers. They’ve got office videos, though I sort of wish they’d just cull the [...]

May 25th, 2007 · No Comments
The world’s first fully touchscreen Phone is not the iPhone (which I wrote about earlier). It is LG’s Prada phone.

Ooh, doesn’t it look sexy? The phone is limited to tri-band GSM 900/1800/1900 with EDGE data, and so will not be too popular in the US from the get-go. It’s smaller than [...]

May 25th, 2007 · No Comments
The above video, recorded live at Penn State, is by comedian/musician Rob Paravonian, who has been a favorite on the Dr. Demento Show. He shares his frustration at having Pachelbel’s Canon in D major follow him everywhere. Everywhere.

Delicious Pecan Pie
May 25th, 2007 · No Comments

So I watch Grey’s Anatomy – who doesn’t eh?
I thought it would be a nice surprise to buy my girl friend one of the scrubs that the doctors and trainees use as their uniform on the show. A lot of searching later, I found my nursing uniforms store online. They have two scrubs [...]

Free Stuff, Lots of Free Stuff
May 23rd, 2007 · No Comments
The sad part is that most of it is free samples. I can’t see what the catch is, since it looks like you have to apply for most of the free offers.
The website does have a lot of discount vouchers which seem to be absolutely free. I will be watching the site to see how [...]

LCD TVs Better Than Plasma TVs?
May 20th, 2007 · 1 Comment
I had written earlier about Plasma TVs, and thought maybe the decision was easy to make in favor of Plasma TVs, but now I am in doubt again. I read a whole bunch of LCD TV reviews today and they do seem to have their own advantages vis-a-vis Plasma TVs.
Here’s a few advantages LCD TVs [...]

Remote Computer Help With Easy Setup: Copilot and CrossLoop
May 20th, 2007 · 3 Comments
Here’s an amazing example of how the same thing, or almost the same thing can come in various shades of free. I have been looking high and low for software that helps me help family members without their having to jump through firewalls, setup VNC and play with port forwarding setting on the router.
