New iPhone: Day One July 14th, 2008 @ 9:24 am PDT
Seventeen hours have passed since I upgraded to the new iPhone. Can it possibly be too early for me to make sweeping generalizations and pass judgment? No. I didn’t think so either.

Blackberry Pearl Keyboard Lock November 8th, 2007 @ 9:05 am PDT
I’ve had a Blackberry Pearl for a few months now and, in general, I love it. It’s a great phone. I love that I can check scores on ESPN and use Google maps and — as a surprise bonus — I can send and receive phone calls and text messages. Here’s what bugs me: The […]

This month’s issue of Discover Magazine featured an article on The Math of . . . Changing Lanes. It was the usual drek on reasons why I shouldn’t drive like a maniac. It’s the sort of thing my mom would clip and mail to me with an “I told you so”-type note attached. Sneaking its […]
Alliteration December 8th, 2003 @ 9:36 am PDT
How’s this for serendiptious alliteration? Last night after seeing a television commercial for Cingular cellular I said: I would switch to Cingular but Sarah said their service sucks.

I used to work for a paging company about 600 years ago. InterLink Paging. This was back in the dark ages, when mobile phones were still the size of shoe boxes and it actually made sense to own (or lease) a “beeper”.
