If I hadn’t already taken the plunge and joined the iPhone cult, the news of this app would driven me over the edge. WordPress + iPhone = true convenient mobile blogging.
Obviously I am writing this using the software. One thing it will lead to is much shorter posts.
WordPress for the iPhone is [...]

I’m testing out Google’s new browser, which is now in open beta (available here) and so far I’m impressed.
My initial reaction was, “WTF?  Why another freaking browser?”  But then I read the story behind it, about why the decided to create a new browser from the ground up, and … wow.  It made complete sense.

Before you right now is one of the prettiest, and most glaring, examples of planned obsolescence.
This is the iPod Touch.
Apple released it without a hard drive, so that you only have up to 16 GB of memory on it. Meanwhile they also released an iPod Classic that costs less but features ten times that [...]

That handle on the toilet is can be a nasty thing to touch, particularly because you have no idea what the person who used it before you was touching.
