Blockbuster has really done a stellar job at mis-managing someone’s account and merging their data into my email address this week. I’ve never rented from Blockbuster Online, but I do recall registering to check it out when they launched to compare against Netflx… since then I have no recollection of using the system whatsoever.

Drive - Custom Track for Nike + iPod
June 30th, 2006 · No Comments · apple, gadgets and technology, marketing
The Crystal Method have released a track designed for runners and the new Nike - iPod system. Obviously anyone can listen and buy the music, but I think it really speaks to the commitment of both companies to this partnership. Custom content with a focus on the application of what they both bring is an [...]

N91 - iSync — Success!
June 27th, 2006 · 23 Comments · gadgets and technology, software
While I really dig my N91, I’ve been frustrated that I have not able to have my full contact list because I could not add the phone to iSync. As you might imagine without your contact list dialing and caller ID might be a tad more challenging.
After much searching I was able to locate [...]

Because you can
June 26th, 2006 · No Comments · gadgets and technology, moblog, travel
I am currently commuting home on the train to Westchester listening to a Podcast on the N91. At the same time I am using the phone as a modem for my MacBook Pro as I needed to quickly send a file which had already been sent via Exchange using Outlook Web Access. Since I [...]

Nokia makes “Multimedia Computers” - I get it now
June 25th, 2006 · 1 Comment · gadgets and technology
As I mentioned earlier in the week - I really dig the N91. It’s pretty hefty, but without heft. What I mean is that is looks like a larger phone, but still maintains a relatively sleek form factor and is quite easy to pocket in jeans or shorts. I’ve been pushing the device [...]

Flock / Google Browser Sync Conflict
June 24th, 2006 · 2 Comments · Personal
There is a seriously annoying conflict between the Google Sync Extension for Flock and Flock itself. Because, you need to enter a password to protect both your initial flock data as well as your google sync info, there are prompts on start-up.
For some reason the Google bit likes to jump on top [...]

Walk to Work
June 22nd, 2006 · 3 Comments · gadgets and technology, travel
I thought it would be vaguely interesting to shoot some video of my walk to work. I always get my New York on a bit while in Grand Central as it feels like you have to be aggressive in order to stay on the line you want to walk. Way too many people [...]

N91 Initial Thoughts
June 21st, 2006 · 3 Comments · Personal, gadgets and technology
So today was the first full day of use with the N91, and I have to say I really like it — a lot! I still think the N70 is the most pocket-able of the NSeries I’ve tried and that’s a very good thing, but the extra size (which is really not that bad) in [...]

Netsape reborn as a Digg-type news site
June 15th, 2006 · No Comments · marketing, news
So Jason Calacanis (Weblogs Inc) has been hard at work on a stealth project within AOL which rears it’s head today as Netscape Beta. It’s essentially DIgg, plus editors, but for much more than simply tech news. It looks interesting… I am not sure that I’ll be that intrigued to use it more than [...]

Wrestling Reader
June 9th, 2006 · No Comments · Personal
Sure there’s a pub for everything, but I would not expect to find someone reading wrestling. This is WWE not NCAA.
A min ago this guy had the mag turned and was admiring some sort of centerfold-like thing…
Entertainment is entertainment I guess.
