It was a busy day for Apple fans today. As I mentioned in a previous post the Apple rumor mill has been running overtime with all of the Tablet talk lately. Over the past two days we’ve seen the rumor mill go into high gear with Apple shooting a mysterious ad in Truckee, CA (near my hometown I might add) and, our friends from Gizmodo releasing an article chronicling the conversation they had with what seems to be [...]

Running along the lines of last week’s app of the week, Good Food Near You is a great app for those who are attempting to lead a healthier lifestyle.  Good Food Near You is a simple yet extremely useful application for people who want to eat healthy but are sometimes too busy to cook for themselves. It is estimated that approximately 25% of Americans eat fast food every day. Those Americans are consuming about 200 calories more [...]

Well I was going to post part II of my Google Voice review but the buzz around Apple’s possible new device is too loud to ignore (not that I was trying to).  For years now the rumor of Apple creating a tablet has been floating around.  Some believed it didn’t nor wouldn’t ever exist, others thought that every time Steve Jobs made an announcement that was going to be “the one”.  Well it seems the time [...]

There has been lots of buzz around Apple lately.  Most of the buzz today was surrounding a recent report of Apple’s factory conditions in China.  For the most part China has a bit of a reputation for not providing equal and just treatment of their employees so the fact that this report is coming from China as opposed to one of the other sites of Apple factories is not so surprising.  What is surprising is the fact [...]

Just an FYI – every Sunday I will be reviewing an iPhone app.  I download a lot of applications onto my phone, some move straight to the front page, others linger in the last pages and never get opened.  Each week I will review the apps that I love/hate. This weeks iPhone App is Prowl.  Prowl is a great iPhone app that utilizes the new push notification feature introduced in the iPhone 3.0 software.  Put simply, [...]
