iPad key to expanding Apple’s addressable market
If you watched the Apple iPad launch event last month, you may have noticed something new, at least in comparison to past extravaganzas. Steve Jobs as educator. He's played many roles to perfection before: egoist, magician, showman, businessman, visionary.
But educator just might be the new role that takes Apple to...
Film Review: ‘The Tijuana Project’
Here's one that will pull on the heart strings. The Tijuana Project is a refreshing change from the incessant drug battle-charged headlines we see coming out of Mexico, especially border towns such as Tijuana, just 30 minutes South of San Diego.
I admit we sent this one to the bottom...
Google Buzz app in Android Market: Crap-and-balls or real-deal?

Google Maps navigation on Motorola Droid (and Android) adds night mode
The already superb built-in navigation on the Motorola Droid (and Android 2.0/2.1) just got even better with the addition of night mode. Yes, please get me a megaphone so I can run to the nearest mountain top (Mt. Hamilton) and start hollering this spectacular news. But for me, of...

New Orleans Saints win Super Bowl, prediction oh-so-close
Every now and then, I just need to take a deep breath, look in the mirror, then write a post about one of my semi-respectable predictions. It's rare and I need to take what I can get.
My prediction:
New Orleans Saints - 31, Indianapolis Colts - 24
Actual Score:
31 - 17

Super Sunday Espresso: Creative process, Twitter strikes again, Dicky Fox
Good morning espresso lovers, chatters. It's Super Sunday, and I think I only watched one game the entire season. A playoff game as a matter of fact just a few weeks back. My favorite two sports, NHL and NFL, have taken a backseat to this new mouse on a...
