Games That Don’t Suck: Russian Dancing Men
Today’s game that doesn’t suck is the amazingly awesome (and hilariously bizarre) Russian Dancing Men (iTunes: 99¢ – Universal) , from SmashMouth Games. At its heart it’s basically a rhythm game where you need to tap one (or two) buttons at the appropriate time to help your character (a Russian Dance troupe leader) get his group safely over the various obstacles...

How To: Combine multiple PDFs in Preview
When someone at work recently asked me if there was a way to combine 6 separate PDFs into 1 PDF for emailing a proposal to a client, I realized two things.

Actually, I already... Read More
Kindle Fire outselling iPads at Best Buy – Amazon is a big baby
With the news today that Amazon’s Kindle Fire is outselling the iPad 2 at Best Buy, I thought it wise to revisit this little Kindle Fire mention by Seth Meyers on SNL a few months back (about 40 seconds in). Giving we are now well into the holiday shopping season, I think Seth’s warning to parents bares repeating. Now, this news should not be cause for we fanboys to... Read More
Review: XtremeMac Tuffwrap Shift color-changing case for iPhone 4/4S
Usually I’m not a huge fan of reviewing silicone iPhone cases, not because I don’t love them (after all, who doesn’t love changing the look of their phone every once in awhile), but usually there’s not all that much to say about them aside from “It’s pretty much what you would expect”.

Games That Don’t Suck: Temple Run
Today’s game that doesn’t suck is Temple Run (iTunes: free – Universal) , from Imangi Studios. This is a quick-finger, endless running game sort of like former “GTDS” Gravity Guy, or The Impossible Game, but with a great 3D twist and Indiana Jones adventurer theme to it that makes it even more enjoyable. During a quick tutorial you will learn the basic... Read More
