By breon on 03.16.2010

Yesterday, I ranted to G4 about the lack of digital availability of their content.  10 hours later, I received a response.  I kind of didn’t expect a response. Breon,

A Letter to G4 TV

By breon on 03.15.2010

I wrote an email to webmaster@g4tv.com today.  I’m sure it’ll be read and responded to immediately.  :| To whom it may concern, I’m a big fan of Attack of the Show, and have been without it for a couple of years.  Recently, Comcast added G4 to the Digital Starter lineup and I’ve been happily watching [...]

5 Features Every Smartphone Should Have

By breon on 02.20.2010

I’ve been rocking an HTC Hero (Sprint Version) since the beginning of October ’09.  When I bought it, it was the end-all-be-all for Android phones.  While I knew that even better phones would be right around the corner, I didn’t predict the onslaught of dope phones that was to come.

Flickr vs Picasa

By breon on 02.16.2010

It’s pretty apparent that Flickr is the leading online photo service. There are tons of sites and services that integrate with the Yahoo! service. You can upload and manage your photos (and videos) with a desktop application or via the web.  Even iLife ’09 (iPhoto), which comes with every new Mac, can publish photos to [...]

One Fast Move Or I’m Gone

By breon on 02.02.2010

If you’ve been following my tweets, you know I was in Michigan this past weekend for the Sno*Drift Rally (blarg post on that later).  You probably also saw that I was sick as a dog.  On the [long] drive home I was debating whether or not I was going to attend a concert that night.  [...]

A couple more days with the Pre Plus and Pixi Plus

By breon on 01.29.2010

I gotta admit, I haven’t spent as much time with the Pre and Pixi as I should have.  Although, I have been using them in the context of ‘everyday use’ and not just über-nerdcore-deep-tech-dive.

Hello, Droid!

By breon on 11.06.2009

Justin Grammens sent me an email a couple weeks ago letting me know that Albert Maruggi might be contacting me about “testing a new Android device”. Being the Android fanboy that I am, I just about jumped out of my shorts.

QUICK! Get Qik for live video streaming on Android

By breon on 08.05.2009

Qik is the first (and only) app on Android that allows for live video streaming. They’ve recently added some neat features that allow you to easily share and edit your videos, right on your device. You can also now record offline and upload them later. Very neat if you’re in a poor data coverage area.
