Tomorrow, June 17th 2009, Apple servers will probably crumble under the huge amount of downloads when the iPhone 3.0 OS release is published. The hype around the new operating system for Apple’s Jesus phone is big. For the first time since the iPhone was released the phone will offer more standard features, features as we [...]

Claims about Steve Jobs’ health and the decision of the shareholders to re-elect the Apple Board throw a weird shadow on new releases and their _special_ features such as yesterday’s iPod Shuffle update.
With every new release it seems as if the actual Apple team decides to develop less and less for Joe Average but once [...]

I hate it, I hate it, I hate it. It’s everywhere I look, my friends have it, my neighbors have it, my family has it, my POSTMAN has it too! Oh darn it, can’t anyone have any other phone except the iPhone? It has become an eyesore. Sure it’s pretty (liked having one before), but [...]

Here’s a concept design that inspires you (in a way) to seriously consider the smallest effort one needs to begin to lessen their negative impact on mother nature. Recycling used batteries may be a small task, but if one person doesn’t, their batteries pile up somewhere. Did you know that Americans dispose at the very [...]

I’m used to seeing plenty in the iPhone app store that I don’t think warrants being charged for, so I’m not really surprised that Conde Nast has moved away from free apps – Style.com and Wired Product Reviews, both of which just repackaged existing content in an iPhone-friendly way – to charging for an app – iReddit – that lets you access Reddit.

As you’d expect, the community has something to say about that. Fairly good-natured from what I’ve read, but then this isn’t Digg.

Funny moment. I was listening to K-Love here in Wisconsin when (I think John Rivers) says America IS infected with the FAD. Co-djs laughing, I was chuckling, specially when he went on to say what FAD meant… “Facebook Addiction Disorder”. John continues he wishes to rid of this and has been out of FaceBook for [...]

I don’t particularly follow the mobile phone market unless they are made of Lego blocks, but yesterday I followed the releases over at MWC. Mainly to see what Windows 6.5 would look like and in the hope of more information around the Palm Pre.
For once I must admit that the Redmonders finally got something right [...]

Much has been said about the 7 different editions Windows 7 will be released in. As usual this was a typical example of bloggers complaining just to complain. Things actually are much simpler and we here at Forever Geek will simplify the choice for you and explain why Windows 7 needs different editions.
There are only [...]

Apple Stores would soon compete with Microsoft Stores with Microsoft announcing the thrust to open Microsoft Stores in the following months world wide.  This effort “to help shoppers make smarter decisions about spending money on technology”, remarks newly appointed VP for retail stores David Porter.  With recession biting deeper on worldwide economy, I think Microsoft anticipate [...]

The Internet has changed the way we work, the way we interact and the way we learn. Here I’ve put together a list of five ways I see the Internet having re-invented the learning process.
1. Information about everything and anything, readily available
The two biggest contributors to information access are Wikipedia and Google. [...]

I really love it when technology pushes itself up and up the style scale. Thanks to a lot of consumer reviews and focus groups, it seems like LG is improving both in form and function. THe LG Prada was a little less than a parade, good start though. But the LG Prada [...]

Not long ago Yahoo ended one of its supposedly relationship with a tech giant (Microsoft). Well, now Yahoo has yet again ended another one, now with Google. I was listening to Loaded with Natalie del Conte and found out that Yahoo and Google ended their ad sharing contract. You have to applaud [...]

I’ve been hit by audio nostalgia this past week.
I took out my big crate of cassette tapes (that maybe carries about 300 tapes), and plugged in an old Pioneer tape deck to my home theater/audio setup at home and went back in time.
The simple act of opening a cassette case, taking out a tape, [...]

This from BusinessWire:
Samsung Telecommunications America (Samsung Mobile) today announced the installation of 22 charging stations at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP). Out of the 22 charging stations, 18 of the 8-1/2-foot-tall stations have been installed inside Lindbergh Terminal Concourses A, B, C, D, E and F, along with four additional stations located in the Humphrey [...]

Grand Theft Auto 4 has been pulled from the shelves in an unprecedented move in Thailand – after a teenager confessed to the murder of a taxi driver that was allegedly spurred in by him playing the game.  The 18 year old is accused of stabbing the taxi driver to death and attempting to drive [...]
