The Top 5 iPhone Apps of 2008
A very short list of my top five iPhone applications of the year… Tweetie - Twitter was made for mobile interaction. There are many great Twitter iPhone apps out there. Twitteriffic is gorgeous. Tweetsville has a great UI. But Tweetie just beats theem all in speed and stability. After it gets a little makeover and fixes the UI of the direct messages… Tweetie will be set. Collapse!...

The Top 5 Mac Apps of 2008
A (very) short list of my favorite mac applications of the year… Dropbox - Dropbox might just be the best and most original idea of the year. File sharing and file syncronization became simple and speedy. Enough said. Bowtie - Easily the best, simplest, and most affordable iTunes accessory ever. You can read my quick review here. LaunchBar 5 Beta - Years ago before Quicksilver I used...

School Helps You Watch Television
So I have a terrible terrible final tomorrow. I’ve been studying a lot, or at least I’ve been trying to. So tonight I was taking a break and was watching a repeat of House because apparently repeats of House are my new addiction. Anyway, at one point House asked the Team where fear was in the brain, and before Foreman answered I told him out loud “the central nucleus of the...

The Switch
On the day of installation, the installation guy actually showed up on time. A short while later, a second guy came to help him set up service outside and in the basement. A couple of hours later a third guy came to help with setting up the cable card for the TiVo since the other two had never done it before. So, we had a little FIOS party with three guys from about 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. When the...

*Cinema -- Step Brothers
Step Brothers (2008) I’m ashamed of how much I enjoyed this. Bordered somewhere on the lines of funny and almost horrifying at times. Mary Steenburgen just kicked ass. Kathryn Hahn, who played the older brother’s wife, made the movie for me. I started liking the movie as soon as she showed up. I still can’t believe that I enjoyed this.

*Cinema -- Zack and Miri Make a Porno
Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008) Easily one of the best movies I’ve seen in a long while. So much better than I was expecting. The best romantic comedy I’ve seen since Knocked Up. Yes, I realize they both star Seth Rogen. He just works so well in romantic comedies. If we’re going to continue with the Knocked Up comparisons, I have to admit that I found Elizabeth Banks...
