Or rather, I guessed it.

I have some new insight to share with you regarding the portable device Apple is working on. In a previous article, I described the mysterious portable as perhaps Apple’s rival product to the Intel Ultra Mobile PC ( UMPC ) initiative. In talking to several sources close to the [...]

Whether or not you’re sold on all the products, face it: Tuesday was the most exciting day for Apple since the release of the iPhone (or even its announcement 1 year ago). 4 majorly big things, culminating in what had long been common knowledge on the Internet: the release of the ultra-thin Macbook Air.
There’s been [...]

I may be late to the game on this one, but I’m super excited about the NPR media player. I’ve long loved NPR, but my days of being in the car during Morning Edition or All Things Considered are past me (for the moment). NPR has always released the material online a few hours after [...]

Outlook Search is terrible: in my mind it’s been the worst feature for years (even more annoying than Clippy). As someone who meticulously saves and categorizes every e-mail I receive (I have all four years of Olin e-mails, including mailing list threads, archived), it’s dreadful to have to search for an old email in Outlook: [...]

With all the glamor and glitz of Leopard and the constant PR push by Apple, it’s almost refreshing to see someone out there admit to the faults of Apple’s new OS. I just wasn’t expecting that someone to be so harsh:
“Hey, at least Microsoft reps have the decency to look a little abashed when you [...]

Only Skymall can bring you the incredible idea of keeping a extremely hot beverage within close proximity to your laptop computer. I can only assume that when you take a sip, the tethered cord serves as a signal for your coworkers to laugh at you. 

I’d be curious to see how it registers in [...]

As my girlfriend will attest, I have a plethora of junky music that clogs my iPod. It’s almost embarrassing: a lot of the songs are holdovers from my “I need every song in existence” period. (I’m looking in your direction, Hootie and the Blowfish.) Lately, I’ve been asking myself: what’s the point of having 60 [...]

Like to bum games of Guitar Hero off of your friends, but don’t have the money (or desire) for your own PS2 or XBox360? Don’t fret (horrible pun intended): with  the open-source Windows/Linux/Mac OS X/FreeBSD version of Frets on Fire, you can get your Free Bird on faster than you can say “And this bird [...]

This appeared on LifeHacker (such an excellent resource) two weeks ago, but it’s worth mentioning here, if only because I just went through the process: If you have >1 Win/Mac computers, and run Firefox on each, you need to do this for yourself. I spent the better part of a day customizing my Firefox profile [...]
