Samsung is scraping the bottom of the features barrel
The main thing to take away from Samsung’s latest “Apple users and mindless, line-waiting sheep” commercial is that Samsung is running out of meaningful features to showcase to help set itself apart (above?) from the iPhone. Now, first of all, I doubt if anyone standing in an iPhone launch line would excitedly say “The connector’s all digital, what... Read More
Apple’s iPhone 5 Event: The Good, the Bad, and the Meh
As with all big Apple events, I once again find people turning to me for my opinion on the announcements from Apple’s iPhone 5 announcement. Honestly I can’t blame them, as my opinion is often the only correct one when it comes to such things. I seem to have the uncanny ability to cut through the hype with laser beam-like precision, and somehow categorize the day’s... Read More
Why the iPhone 5 will be the most expensive iPhone ever
We Apple users are used to paying a bit more for our tech than our PC and Android-owning friends (assuming we are willing to hang out with to “those” kinds of people). We appreciate that way the hardware looks and feels in the hand can be almost as important as how well it works, and yes, we are willing to fork over the extra dough for this “design and engineering...

“DUETS” ad parodies Apple’s 1984 ad for some reason
“In a landscape where all music shows are the same… ONE will break through!” I don’t know which is sadder – that ABC thinks its new music reality show DUETS is going to be so original and revolutionary that it deserves to be compared to the introduction of the Macintosh in 1984, or that we live in “a landscape” of more than one of these crappy...

Why the iPad 3 sucks for the rest of us
Ok everyone, stand back, I’m going to try to do some math and I don’t want anyone getting hurt. So, if you’re anything like me (and God help you if you are) you have way too many apps on your iPhone. In fact I have approximately 1 fuck-ton of apps, which to my metric readers is about 907 fuck-kilograms. Ok, actually, I have 26.2 GB of apps currently on my iPhone,... Read More

Apple’s worst icons
Apple has built a well deserved reputation for impeccable design in both its hardware and operating systems, but even the best designers can get lazy. Here’s a quick tribute to some of Apple’s worst icon blunders of the past couple years. (And please let me know if I missed any in the comments). Sharing. Nothing says “sharing” like a… um… say,...

Hot-selling Casey Anthony Trial apps confirm that everyone sucks
I don’t know where you fall on the whole “mom’s (allegedly) killing their own kids debate, but I would hope you would find people trying to profit from it somewhat distasteful. That being said, apparently quite a few of you DON’T, as the app Casey Anthony Trial with LIVE STREAM, News, Videos, Audio, Documents and more 99¢ by Scott Manthey (who apparently... Read More
