Tings
September 24, 2007 8:23 am Blog PostsAnother week has passed and I continue to get behind on things. I really want to do a DailyTechTalk Live. I have two shows scripted out that I just need to do. Between the iPhone sales, technical blogging, hacking my iPhone, workouts, my 8-5 job and another task that just got put on my plate; I just don’t have time for it.
I promise to get a DailyTechTalk live cast out on Monday 9-24 on Justin.TV. I may do one before I go to the gym and do another cast after I get home. This is the only way to get everything done. I could just slack off at work but we’re too busy as it is.
The next DTT Live will be about Apple FUCKING UP THEIR ENTIRE MUSIC LINE and a few miscellaneous news items related to Mac and PC tings. The second episode will be related to Macworld. I know that you’re saying, “Jeez, isn’t Macworld in 2008?” You would be correct.
It’ll be in San Francisco and will be taking place in 113 days. I know this because I have installed a Macworld countdown widget just to make sure I don’t forget. Macworld is extremely important to DailyTechTalk and myself. I have attended Macworld expo since 2003 and don’t plan on stopping the madness anytime soon. This isn’t the place that all of the Macworld news will reside. If you really want to know about it, head over to http://macworldbound.com and get all of the info. Either way, on a personal level, the conference planning will take a huge chunk of my time. I will spend about 1-2 hours a day, five days a week until it’s conference time.
I have to plan:
- Coverage
- Parties
- Travel Arrangements for myself and a few peeps
- Hotel / plane deals for our readers
- budgeting and money management
- purchasing new equipment for specific coverage items
- I’m sure there’s more I just suck at creating bullet lists J
I bought laura an iPhone today. I went into the AT&T store to purchase 10 more iPhones and said “make that 11”. She knows how many phones I was supposed to buy and immediately went, “OMG!” and gave me a hug. I’ve never seen her so happy to be honest. She was more happy when I asked her to move in with me. LOL. Anyway, she’s setting it up now and it’s her first smartphone. The RAZR I gave her was her first cameraphone and the iPhone is another first for her. She’s ecstatic about google maps, the 2mpx camera, ipod, photo management and anytime access to Gmail. Her RAZR could do all of that but the opera browser for the razr sux and the data plan also sucked for the razr. I’m glad I made her day. Maybe I can pass it off as a very early Christmas gift.
I ended up not switching to Bellsouth. Comcast made it right with me and cancelled the double billing and apologized sincerely for the problems I had. Comcast still sucks but the upload speed for Justin.TV is fantastic and that’s the main reason I’m staying with them. Oh and regarding my bellsouth post, they don’t offer 1.5 megabits up. That’s a fucking flat out lie. They max out at 512KB. My Comcast connection is 8mb down and 768 up which I pay extra for and it helps me achieve 640×480 streaming with minimal lag.
I think that’s about all for now. I’m going to write one more post which is deserving of a separate entry. That’s the update and I hope you all enjoy it. I’m not totally convinced that Wordpress is the best but we’ll see. I’m wishing I could stress test it but now I’m rambling. Anyway, thanks ya’ll!
