Finally something funny I can post in the “geeky” column. Although it might not be work safe humor… I know how un-humorous those workplaces are getting these days.
Unless you’re in Holland, where I hear the double entendre is still alive and well.

See?  Geeks are a dying species thanks to you marketeers.  I *knew* it!

So what’s got more geek chic than a top ten technology list?  Why, a top ten technology list about watches!
Most of the time I avoid anything with the word “geek” attached to it like some kind of plague infested cockroach with a really bad disposition (the irony doesn’t escape me).  These watches, however, are pretty […]

I know. I know. You’re thinking that pie both exists and is a tasty dessert that compliments many American and European dishes. But today we’re talking about the number rumoured to be ~3.14.
It doesn’t exist. Now, you might have an argument to the contrary. But if you can find me a […]

NewsForge is highlighting a type of “meta search engine” with a simple text interface.  While that in and of itself isn’t revolutionary, YubNub has got a simple syntax to use and can include some if/then arguments.

While that’s great, it’s not a map of the APIs that was requested.  It’s far less useful, as the receiver then has to wade through loads of crap to figure out what they need […]

So really, is there any difference between an Intel PC and a Mac Intel PC? No. No word on if they’ll allow Linux to run on the (what do you call it now) PC(?).
Apparently Microsoft is thrilled that their will no longer be major retail architectures that don’t run Windows. They don’t […]

While the media wonks over at the BBC have masterfully put together an article that deviates from the topic in less time than it took to read, they do manage to bumble through an entire range of topics, getting each one wrong.
First, phones will not replace mobile gaming gear. It’s quite obvious no one […]

Now what kind of a farce is this. If I had a monopoly of 90% market share, a product that is pervasive and a toehold in every other related market, I’d pretty much figure that my continued existence was in the bag. Especially if somehow worse came to worse, I could simply sell […]
