General Electric Brand Microwave Posted in Electronics on December 21st, 2007 Item: General Electric Brand Microwave Location: by suthernsmooth Review: Recently my oldest daughter and her husband found themselves the owners of a broken microwave. They’re not sure exactly what happened. The night before it had worked, but by the next day it wouldn’t even issue so much as a beep when they pushed its buttons (and trust me, that is something they are really good at). Since both of them work

Well, Redmond, it's been a funny year, hasn't it? Even if you ignore those Apple commercials, it's hard to ignore the fact that Vista was probably one of the main reasons people switched to the Mac OS, or to third-party Linux-based systems. We'll get to the big V—and that other mighty stain Windows Mobile—in a bit, but first you deserve much credit for some impressive feats in gaming, entertainment and home networking.

If it's good enough for Oprah... While I certainly can't afford to dole out free stuff to my audience, I've been thinking over the past couple of weeks about some of my favorite things (it might be a consequence of having that danged song from The Sound of Music stuck in my head) and I thought I'd share some of them with you. Over the next few days, I'll put up some lists of my favorite media, theatre, websites and other stuff from 2007. Most of it is new or new to me this year, but there

A few years ago, President Bush pledged that every corner of America would have high-speed Internet by 2007. Well, the year is drawing to a close, and millions of Americans still do not have access. The United States has dropped from fourth to 15th in the world in broadband penetration in the past five years -- a result of a telco stranglehold on both broadband markets and broadband policy that puts their profits before innovation and the public good. But that's not all. Even when Americans

A couple of people suggested I take on Tatuaje’s Website, after a quick glance I can see why. The Cigars: C Tatuaje does break down the cigars, listing sizes and the tobacco in each blend.

This is a fascinating article from the New York Times. It's all about how Google is challenging Microsoft by turning its business model on its head - the switch from licensing software that's installed on desktop computers, to free web-based software. Microsoft changed the software business for ever by being the upstart that challenged the old mainframe model and replaced it with the desktop. IBM didn't see that one coming at the time, and now MS is the entrenched giant with a new upstart chan

From the Wall Street Journal: Fraud Seen as a Driver In Wave of Foreclosures Atlanta Ring Scams Bear Stearns, Getting $6.8 Million in Loans By MICHAEL CORKERY December 21, 2007; Page A1 Skyrocketing foreclosures are a testament to how easy it was to borrow from mortgage lenders in recent years.

The next big frontier for the software and web corporations is in your pocket - your mobile phone. But have you ever wondered why exactly the search giants like Yahoo and Google are so keen to get access to your handset?

But the generalization is that maybe it can know lots of things about you. Take your Facebook friends as an example. The phone coul

http://www.funandmobile.com/ihateguns.htm In my opinion, platform games were the staple of the video game industry in the 80s, and there’s still very much a place for them today on devices that don’t quite have the capabilities of modern 3D graphics systems. Unfortunately, there seems to be a lack of creativity these days when it comes to actually implementing this treasured genre of game. Fun And Mobile decided to take a stab at it with their first game offering, I Hate Guns, and what could h

Helio releases Mysto, Korean community comes first Posted Dec 21st 2007 1:02AM by Chris Ziegler Filed under: CellphonesHelio has gotten official with the slim, sexy Mysto slider -- a branded, CDMA rendition of the Ultra Edition 10.9 that should ultimately become the MVNO's top of the line handset just this side of the Ocean with a 2 megapixel camera, microSD expansion, and the now-typical GPS and EV-DO data.

The senior senator from Massachusetts long ago became a self-referential joke, but sometimes Ted Kennedy gets things right – The President has said that American lives will be sacrificed if Congress does not change FISA. But he has also said that he will veto any FISA bill that does not grant retroactive immunity. No immunity, no FISA bill. So if we take the President at his word, he’s willing to let Americans die to protect the phone companies. Maybe you haven’t been following that busi
