You know those people that just have to tweet about everything, from their morning Cheerios, to their nightly Crest White Strips treatment? Well, it would seem that the wife of Twitter CEO Ev Williams is one of those folks, given that she recently enjoyed “tweeting” during labor. Of course, her in-labor tweets are [...]
If you’re a user and fan of the micro-blogging platform Pownce, I have some bad news for you. The company has been purchased by Six Apart Media, and they aren’t planning big things for it – in fact, they’re shutting the doors and leaving Pownce users out in the rain.

Yes, my weekends are exciting.
I was having some files issues with my (Vista) PC over the weekend, and came across a pretty good file removal software (clone remover), so thought I’d give it a little props here.

The browser wars have been heating up lately with the recent releases of Firefox 3 and Opera 9.5. As a long-time Phoenix Firebird Firefox user and recent convert to Opera Mini (which is excellent, btw) on my Treo, I thought I’d run these two through their paces to [...]
The problem with the Internet is that any whacko with a connection gets to throw out his/her opinion, however wrong it may be. The Internet’s saving grace is that other whackoes can point out just how wrong the first whacko is.
Charlie Barratt wrote an article over at GamesRadar in which he points [...]
It’s been almost one year to the day since I posted my article on TechConsumer about why “Web 2.0″ wasn’t enough, and how “geocontent” might just well be the next big thing.
