PSP on Your Television

Published on October 20, 2005

A few months ago, there were rumors about the PSP to TV adapter. There were 3D renderings of the product and no one really thought it would come true. Now you can get one. Apparently some company developed a way to output the PSP video through an adapter (S-Video or RCA). The cost of the [...]


Cingular Rolls Out High Speed Data Access

Published on October 19, 2005

You’ve heard of Verizon’s EV-DO and Sprint/Nextel will eventually roll out their own high speed. Phoenix and Seattle are the first two cities that will have Cingular’s high speed 3G. Many people thought that Cingular’s system was years off and will not be ready until sometime in the next 2-5 years. Competition is needed to [...]


Make Your Tires Last Longer

Published on October 17, 2005

After a weekend of just vegging out in front of the TV, I came across a show on Spike called TRUCKS! They had a segment on how to increase tread life and prevent corrosion on your new rims. Some dude with a mullet and a deep southern drawl suggested that you fill your tires with [...]


PMOA’s Major League Baseball Improvements

Published on October 13, 2005

I know, I know, it’s for the purity of the game. Players and umpires alike want the game to be called with a human aspect so there will be errors and bad calls. But if they want the game to be pure, then why does a guy like Scioscia come bounding out of the dugout [...]


My New Bill Simmons Book

Published on October 12, 2005

Thanks to my buddy Jon in Chicago, I have my very own copy of, “Now I can Die in Peace“….autographed! I guess the story is that he was in a Barnes & Noble signing books and Jon was nice enough to get me a copy since I am a Red Sox fan. I just wanted [...]

If you didn’t know already, the news of the new iPods have been released and the 30GB and 60GB video iPods are slick as hell. These new iPods will ahve 20 hours of battery life! For a hard drive based player, that’s pretty good. Now that the attention is off the Nano for a little [...]


Safe Shower Temperature Gauge

Published on October 11, 2005

Now if this isn’t stupid, I don’t know what is. There is a company out there that actually makes a digital gauge that you can attach to your shower head that tells you how hot the water is and has a timer for those long shower abusers. The interesting thing about it is that it [...]


Damn Those Pop-Ups

Published on October 10, 2005

So I was working on my web page stuff last night and I was searching on google for some interesting CSS styles. And what happens when you go to a site you don’t recognize? Popups. People seem to be getting through the Firefox pop-up blocker and I accidently clicked on one for like a virus [...]


Motorola’s ROKR Not Selling

Published on October 9, 2005

Ok, we all knew that the ROKR wouldn’t sell well. In my past article about the convergence of technology, I stated that a “jack of all trades and master of none” will not work in today’s society. Now that my point has been proven by the sales of the ROKR, another important attribute is attached [...]


Mod-chipping is Legal Down Under

Published on October 7, 2005

It was made official today that chipping your Playstation is legal in Australia. If you don’t know what chipping is, it is the modding of your Playstation so that you can back up and burn copies of games. Sony may have lost this battle, but the thing is that there are probably more people that [...]
