I’d like to call the period from my last post to now a hiatus, it wasn’t really that though, it was more of me forgetting to post anything and when I did think about it I rarely had anything to say. I still have little to say but I’ll try anyway, for you *points from his side of the screen*.
MacApper.com - I recently became a contributor for MacApper.com and have written a few reviews already, as well as setting up two giveaways (which are still active until the end of this week) — Galder and HoudahGEO. If you are a Mac-whore, like me, then you should definitely check out MacApper.com for great reviews of Mac apps.
HTC Touch - Mrs Fireshaper still had an Ohio phone number, after almost 5 months of being down here in Georgia, so we decided to go to Alltel, have her put on my account and get her a new number. While we were there we had the chance to browse the phones and the rep let me know that he could give me an early upgrade if I was interested in a new phone, so Mrs Fireshaper picked out an HTC Mogul (PPC6800) and I grabbed an HTC Touch for myself. I really like the Touch, it’s not an iPhone (that’s for sure) but it is a solid phone with great features (sans Wi-Fi), not to mention it isn’t locked as to what I can load on it. If I want MP3 ringtones I got them, if I want to watch videos that’s okay too!
Podcasts - I finally fell into the podcast stream that everyone else was seeming to enjoy without me. MacApper did a post on the contributors’ favorite podcasts and I felt left out since I was one of the few who didn’t listen to them, so I grabbed my towel and began subscribing to podcasts without abandon! Here’s what’s on my iPod now:
- 1UP Yours
- Ask a Ninja
- Diggnation
- MacBreak Tech
- MacBreak Weekly
- Net @ Nite
If you have any other suggestions, let me know. I’m always open for them!
You’ll also notice I did some changing of the sidebar to your right. There’s a MeeboMe widget I added and a link to my shared news stories on Google Reader.
