LDS Scriptures on Kindle and BlackBerry

My wife gave me a Kindle as my Christmas present (I know it’s not Christmas yet, but I have very little self control).  After trying out a variety of free content, I wanted to try to find the LDS Scriptures (Book of Mormon, Bible, Doctrine & Covenants, and Pearl of Great Price) in a format [...]

Google Latitude Fun

Well, it’s a neat app, I guess, except for one question. Why am I in New York instead of Utah? I remember waking up in Utah. . .

Debunking the Gnaw Fold Diablo 3 Myth

As with all these fun things, there are kernels of truth.  Diablo does tend to drop Dol runes.  "Trout" does have a root in Greek meaning "nibble" or "gnaw".
First, the hit points.  Diablo in Normal Mode of Diablo 2 has 13818 hit points (according to the useful Diablo Wiki).  So we can rule out [...]

The Irony of the Open X Package Opener

I was shopping on ThinkGeek the other day, and had some points to have this thrown in with my order.  Either that, or it was cheap enough that I thought I’d throw it in the cart.  Me no remember so good none. 
Anyhoo, everyone hates those crazy impossible packages, right?  Here’s where the IRONY [...]

I See You…

It’s not a great picture, but I got a phone snap of a Google Street View car on the freeway the other day.  Nothing special, just thought I’d share.

Grammar for Bloggers: "Line Up" vs. "Lineup"

Welcome to a snarky new series.  A beautiful thing about the advent of blogging is the availability of so many sources for getting news and information.  The trouble is, many of our friends in the blogosphere have some difficulty with the written language.  This can be a barrier to adoption for the snobbier sections of [...]

Those Silly Japanese…

I admire the Japanese for many things… their technological prowess, their ability to produce most of the worlds electronics and of course, their ninjas. But sometimes they do things that we Americans just have to shake our heads at. Heaven knows I wouldn’t ever want to be trapped in a room with [...]

I’m A Sucker For Steampunk…

So I was just hangin’ out at work today preparing for the annual Omniture Halloween bash when this slick bit of Steampunk goodness unexpectedly arrived in my inbox courtesy of my good buddy Andy.
“What is it?” you may ask.
Well, let me tell you. It’s the most essential piece of equipment for [...]

The Sad State of Smartphone Software

I was going through my blogs today and stumbled on a note from the guys at Smartphone Thoughts.  I like these guys, but again, it was a plug for a piece of software they hadn’t tried, in the vein of “looks kinda neat – anyone try it?”.  This brought me over to the best-seller list [...]

Oh, come on now – Red Ring of Death strikes

So it’s an open secret that Microsoft sort of ganked the first-gen Xbox 360.  Rudeboy and I were in the local Toys R Us on a lunch break, and wandered over the sad, sad video game section.  Even sadder than them having no new PSP slims was the sight of a damaged Xbox 360, [...]
