My two-year contract expired in May, which means I’m looking for a new phone. I’ve decided on a Google Android-based phone from my current Motorola Q with Windows Mobile. I wasn’t thrilled about Android’s version one release and now version two is coming out which is a lot better software-wise, I’m just not sure about [...]
For the last few years I’ve just been keeping folders of my digital photos on an external harddrive. At the same time I’ve kept my eyes open for good photo organizing software to use, but there was always a key component that they all seemed to be missing: a simple way to share photos with [...]
Three years after the Xbox 360’s release comes a new version of the Xbox… software. In a similar move to the Zune, Microsoft has decided to focus on software upgrades for improving their current hardware. While some would say the new interface overhaul was unecessary, after actually using it for a while, besides being prettier, it starts [...]
Details have been coming out about the next version of Windows, to be called Windows 7. Vista hasn’t gotten very good praise since it came out. Even though I’m a Vista user and do like it overall, it seems like Windows 7 is basically designed to make critics of Vista happy. And to make it [...]

This post is a little overdue, so since I’m sure many of you have already visited sites like Engadget for CES coverage, I’ll keep this short. There are three areas that I thought there was a lot of focus which we’ll be hearing a lot more about this year.

I went into my desktop settings [...]
It was that time again for me to look at new cell phone options. My two-year contract with Cingular was over and I already decided a while ago that Verizon Wireless was looking better this time around. It also meant it was time for a new phone. I had a Windows Mobile-based smartphone the last [...]
Multi-touch computing has been a technology in the works for a while, with a few different companies rushing to make it first to market with a product. Its no surprise that the first to get there is Microsoft with their Surface. They’ve been a head of the game with (single) touch screen tablet PCs for [...]
