Alright, iTunes. You win. I’ll listen to some Duran Duran then, shall I? First off the blocks today is a news story written yesterday for APCMag.com: Ruslan Kogan unveils his new netbook: “It’s very cheap, and surprisingly for a cheap Netbook, it’s pretty decent.” And then it’s off to the local agency of News with […]

Mostly tired, though. A 2am-5am working sprint will do that to you. In the middle of writing down words of wisdom, though, I was also struck with the inspiration to check out Lynx, the text-only web browser of no small antiquity. Oddly enough, although I’ve been in the tech game for quite some time, I’d

How did that sneak onto my random playlist? Oh well. I guess I can’t always be predictable. Although (smooooth segue #372!), it is somewhat predictable that I’d be writing about Apple again. Firstly, with my blogging hat on, at PC Authority: Mac Authority: New iPod shuffle headphones, and other annoyances: “The last thing that I

A special no-prize to anyone who can name that semi-obscure Prince track without using Google. A quick burst of news writing yesterday for PC Authority led to this. Yes, it was live yesterday, not today but in between then and now I’ve been busy being checked over for cancerous growths. The line of the day,

Back in Prince lyrics territory today. Clearly, today’s all about being in comfortable territory for me. Either that, or I’m very tired, and need something with a hard funk edge to keep me motivated. It’s probably more comfortable territory than anything else, however. And with more than a decade’s experience writing reviews under my belt,

iTunes is throwing some seriously odd song choices at me today. I’m beginning to doubt that whole “Genius” thing. Then again, if the above lyric isn’t genius, it’s insanity, and they’re tolerably close for most intents and purposes. As if to counterpoint yesterday’s discussion of the whole media ecosystem print/online thing, I’ve got a couple

Wow, but that’s a bad opening lyric. I write for a variety of outlets, online and in print, and I’m always somewhat amused by the pro-blogger stance that anything that isn’t online is automatically “outdated” or “inferior”. Pejorative phrases like “MSM” or “Dead Tree Media” get thrown about as badges of superiority, all the while

“Our next cartoon features Slappy The Squirrel!” You’ll have to forgive me for being somewhat brain fried. On Friday, at about 2pm, I set off in the car with all three kids in the back. On Sunday, at about 7:30pm, I arrived home. Exactly where I started from on Friday. Between those two times, I
