For those running Macs, you might want to check Software Update. I noticed that Apple released a nice iPhoto update tonight, downloaded it and installed it. However, in classic Apple tradition, there’s little to no information on this update. Clicking the KB Link (noted in the Software Update dialog box) just says you need to [...]

Restoring Family Treasures: My Great-Grandfather’s Pocket Watch
A couple of months ago, I was given a box containing a treasure like no other. Inside were the remains of two pocket watches; both were in terrible shape, and both were obviously old. Since they came from my uncle’s widow, I knew that they were somehow related to my family, but there was no [...]
eReader Drops Prices – No Book Over $12.95!
I received my weekly email from eReader today, and for a change I was actually SHOCKED when I opened it! Usually I find that, even on sale, eReader books are too expensive. New eBooks often cost more than a brand-new physical copy! Bestsellers have also been prohibitively expensive. Well, eReader is finally answering my wishes–no [...]

Lately it seems that many have focused on the hardcore gaming side of the iPhone platform. With the speed of the new iPhone 3GS I have also been blown away by some of the new titles. Some of these games look stunning on the phone, but sometimes a simple game of solitaire is all that [...]

DOOM Resurrection – An iPhone Gaming First Look
I have to admit that when it comes to gaming I have a weakness for 1st Person Shooters and… Zombies. But can games that combine the two really work on a device as small and “buttonless” as the iPhone or iPod Touch? After spending the last 45 minutes or so playing id software’s new release [...]
Building a Rainwater Collection System: A GearDiary DIY
Ten years ago, I acquired two 55-gallon plastic drums to store an emergency supply of water for the impending Y2K disaster occurring at the stroke of midnight 2000. Of course, I became suspicious when the plane I was flying on did not fall out of the sky on 9/9/99 and my trusty Honda still ran [...]
Is The iPhone 3G REALLY A Good Deal??
TechCrunch has an excellent post up answering the question “Should you get an iPhone 3GS” from a number of perspectives. Overall it is a fantastic piece that looks at a wide range of variables and offers answers to the question based upon each, and I must say I agree with the authors conclusions. Well, that’s [...]
iPlayMusic Releases Chords for iTunes
A common sight and sound back in my “man cave/guitar room,” is me sitting at my computer desk with iTunes blaring, playing one of my six string beauties. One of my favorite ways to relax is to fire up iTunes, place it on shuffle and see what songs I can play along with on my [...]

Moovida and Jamendo: Perfect Together
Moovida is a media center with a smooth and slick interface, and I really liked it when I reviewed it a couple weeks ago. Moovida now has a plugin for Jamendo, the music 2.0 platform with all of their music under the Creative Commons umbrella of licenses. The interface is strictly a streaming service for [...]

Safer Car Seats! Safety 1st Brings New Technology
Nobody realizes a parent’s concern for safety until they have a child of their own. Being the parent of a 4 and soon to be 2 year old, I know this first hand.
Jabra Introduces GO 6400 Series Bluetooth Headset With Capacitive Touch Controls
My very first bluetooth headset was from Jabra. Since then I have pretty much always had one of their products in my kit bag. I currently use their Jabra SP700 Bluetooth speakerphone every time I am in the car. I love its sleek design, fantastic sound quality and host of advanced features. It truly is [...]
