The site also has a host of personalization and social media features (user favorites, what’s hot, etc.). Truveo CEO Tim Tuttle contrasts [...]

Lot of chatter today of the release of Meebo for iPhone. I checked it out and it’s nice, but think that Beejive’s Jivetalk which I’ve mentioned previously, is the superior client. They both get the job done in an elegant way, but Beejive has better contact management and enables a float on top [...]

Seeing ads like this one from Sprint on the NYT make me wonder why they would not simply pay the (presumed) slightly higher CPM to take advantage of registration data for readers. I don’t live in San Francisco and am not on the west coast. Seeing an ad for regional info out of [...]

If you have or have been thinking about a Sonos system, things just got a bit more interesting with the ability to stream Sirius radio. Sonos has done a remarkable job lining up partnerships to make sure you have every option available through the Sonos UI — effectively replacing the need for physical media. [...]

In case you have not yet heard the news, there’s a product replacement advisory for Nokia Nokia BL-5C batteries. I checked my stash here and found I have two - in the N70 and N91. The N91’s battery matched the lot to be potentially replaced and I’ve submitted my info to Nokia.
Nokia [...]

It’s hard to argue the logic here… Without really knowing where and what (consumer vs. business vs. enterprise) was marketed I can’t comment in any detail over the planning. The current on-deck stuff has remained limited and the more advanced users more likely to be traveling off-deck into the mobile web of their own [...]

So far so good with the Ooma today… Call quality seems clear and no one has commented that we sound any different which has happened on occasion with previous home VOIP services.

Only one glitch which was when I accidentally disconnected my sister-in-law by placing the call on hold. When my wife went to [...]

I received the Ooma today which I initially discussed on my podcast, the GearTech Update.

In the box were both the Hub and Scout which was a nice surprise as the Scout is sold separately or so I thought when I first read about this. I am not sure whether the initial seeds [...]

Om Teases us today with a taste from a recent meeting with Blake Krikorian, CEO of Sling Media and his proto Nokia N95 with US 3G! I’ve heard this was coming and actually thought it might be here this month, but this is the first proof it’s out there and getting ready for this [...]

Though somehow I doubt this is where we thought they’d be heading …

“In an increasingly rare collaboration with Hollywood, Yahoo has signed a production deal with the company behind reality shows such as Temptation Island and Joe Millionaire.

The Web behemoth’s nonexclusive first-look pact with Rocket Science Laboratories will likely focus on short-form video that [...]

It’s been a while since Palm did anything that got my attention in a positive way, but seeing the alleged pictures of the pending Treo 800 just has me scratching my head. Did someone get distracted along the way here or what? This is one ugly design… Are we sure the function buttons [...]

My former agency and colleages at McCann and MRM have produced a few funny videos for Intel on Hardware Security. Christopher Guest directed and Dan Finnerty of the Dan Band (seen in “Old School” and “Starsky & Hutch”) sings.

There’s some good I.T. Manager humor woven into the lyrics! While the videos [...]

My kids are still way to young to explore on Club Penguin, but I checked it a few months ago after a parent at school mentioned their older child enjoyed some time online there. The site is pretty simple, and involves some guided chat and interactions (read safe) options as well as quite a [...]

Just a quick update… not sure what was going on yesterday, but I am getting sent mail in my inbox. Damn you GMail!

I really don’t like POP email, but the last thing I want to do is create a new email account just to gain IMAP access to forwarded Gmail. I currently forward [...]
