I know I haven’t been blogging as much as I should on this website, but I have tons of stuff to deal with so I pretty much put this on the backburner.
That’s all in the past, though. I can now blog wherever and whenever, provided there’s wifi though.
Yep, I’m blogging with Jim, my newly bought iPod Touch. I’m still getting the hang of typing on it, though, so give me some time.

I don’t know about you, but wading through gazillions of entries in Google search simply isn’t the best way to get answers for your technical questions and problems.

How many times have you been in search of a particular software, only to find conflicting and — at times — near incoherent babbling from various forums, blogs and websites?  If you’re like me, too many times is probably your answer.  True, the internet is the modern world’s fountain of knowledge.  Unfortunately, separating “knowledge” from “pointless use of web space” is quite difficult and time consuming.

This is where Gadget Advisor comes in.  Need to find the best Firefox extensions or best Windows software downloads?  Look no further.  The site cuts out all the crap and features only the best resources for hardware, software, gadgets and everything else in between.  Gadget Advisor chews up the latest tech news for you, giving you only the most relevant, important and significant information you need.

Plus, the website also reviews key software, hardware and gadgets — giving readers more opportunities and products to choose from.  Want to read a review for Blaze Media Pro?  Gadget Advisor’s the place to go!

I’m not so sure this is a good idea.

Sure, I’ve wished for a way to convey my road rage in a more techie manner before, but this might be taking it a bit far.

In a nutshell, the Drivemocion is a LED display you can stick on the back of your car.  Using a remote, convey your emotions to the driver behind you.  Choose from a smiley, a frown, a stern “back off!” and a rather hostilely extended middle finger.

Of course you can always just roll down your window and hurl invectives, but that wouldn’t be so geeky now would it?

This sounds really interesting, although I have serious misgivings since Kodak is still best known for its film-based cameras.  Can it really compete in the HD Video Cam arena?

The picture shows a really simple interface that even kids can work, and it’s pink.

That’s the only reason I’m even remotely interested.  Sorry, but the Mino’s still got my vote.  I haven’t checked the specs, though, so don’t mind me.  I’m completely bias.

If you’re still interested, you can pre-order this baby for $179.95.

Not here, though.

It’s over at my other blog (since I’m poor and can’t spring for prizes on two blogs).

The prize is super geeky: a book on grammar.  In my defense, it’s a really fun and irreverent book that would surely send us grammar nerds snickering for days.

I’m kidding, of course, but Asus really is taking the trend a bit too far. Its EEEs actually played to the current obsession with colorful laptops, but these new PC901 and 1000H editions are just going a little too off the radar. Somewhere in Taiwan, an Asus engineer thinks to himself, “yes, girls will go crazy over these hot pink and neon lime editions”.

He may or may not be wrong.

After all, the marketing team did something quite intelligent: ship off the colorful new editions to Korea, where nothing is tacky enough to turn off screaming girls.

…it’s really cute!

You have to be in on the joke to figure it out, though. Get the geeky details here.

I know it’s sort of cruel to do this to a kid, but I still think it’s a good idea. I will most certainly be a horrible parent.
