Hello Boys and Girls,
It seems other companies aside from Apple are putting their thinking caps on and breaking all kinds of molds. There was a mold. Apple didn’t exactly break the mold for tablets, as shown in this nifty diagram. All they did was scale it up. An overgrown cellphone won’t last very long in [...]

No it’s probably that you are just like me and a big cheapskate when it comes to buying software!
Either which [...]
I don’t know anyone who doesn’t get a call from a telemarketer at least once a week if not much more. They’ll call and leave no message and annoy the heck out of you.
Unfortunately, some of these calls are actually made by criminals who try to get your personal information.
News articles over [...]
“…Perhaps you think your email is legitimate enough that encryption is unwarranted. If you really are a law-abiding citizen with nothing to hide, then why don’t you always send your paper mail on postcards? Why not submit to drug testing on demand? Why require a warrant for police searches of your house? Are you trying [...]

So we don’t usually gush over retail household products but this is really cool and can be bought with the notion of safety in mind. You attach this doo-hickey that is battery operated and it changes the color of your water with LED’s depending on the temperature of the water. Its also only $20 [...]

Hi boys and girls,
Do you remember when Ask The Admin covered a very interesting topic of Free Exchange services? For those who don’t, you can look here, here and sometimes here.

I was a hard core Netscape user before the days of FireFox and before that I was all about IE4 . (Sorry for the re-run but Kayla didn’t let us sleep this weekend!) So I have realized change is good and you live and you learn. So when I heard about Flock, I decided to [...]

so. i tried to do this on my dash, with my Vista 64 PC and it scared the stuffing out of me, crashed and lost connection with the dash screen quite colorful and pretty, but utterly frozen. it was awful. didn’t kill it though, just made me think it was dead for a minute or so.
and i’m actually thinking of giving it another shot, because it sounds so damn cool and a whole day is a long time to wait. can’t believe i just typed that. but there it is.

No sadly it wont but they can do it for money via a website just like they will start doing tommorow for the iPhone. Let me know if you want the place where we did ours.

LimeWire is not secure 1st off so be warned they might not be what you think they are. And secondly have you tried to play them on your PC?
