The Retrospective

MTV is saying goodbye to the Hills? Well, not exactly. However the newly launched Mtvmusic puts the focus back on music. Really!
Viacom’s MTV Networks launched MTVmusic.com, a user-friendly online collection of 16,000 music videos including “Unplugged” performances. The site resembles Hulu but MTV has added a social networking component. A streaming online collection seems like […]

First, explaining to someone what “micro-blogging” is can be a hard and funny task, but a lot of us are doing it every day without knowing it. Besides the ubiquatous staple micro-blogging site Twitter, if you use popular services like Facebook and Myspace and update your “status” you’re essentially micro-blogging. The one difference being that […]

I once took a few weeks of a quantum mechanics class because since I was a kid I was pretty much fascinated with the concept of time travel. Too this day I retain no knowledge of the subject or that class (830 in the morning wasn’t gonna happen). I’d been reading around the web of […]

Earlier this week Cuil, a new startup search engine run by ex-Google engineers, went live. Now before we really get into this remember that Google is the king when it comes to the search industry. They’ve taken out names like Altavista, Lycos, MSN, Yahoo and a score of others. Trying to compete with Google is an uphill […]

Got 200,000 dollars lying around and are able to make make a 10 percent deposit for a ticket? If so, you probably aren’t the type who knows the meaning of broke and can most likely make plans to sit next to other absorbingly rich people and fly on Virgin Galatic’s new White Knight 2. This week everyone and their […]

Remember when watching Nick involved a big orange couch, cartoons not suited for small children, and live action TV shows without snotty nosed brat kids that wanted a record deal? I do! And I bet you do too. Nickelodeon has just rolled out some pretty sweet classic shows that haven’t been on the air […]

I gesture, you gesture and then HP just bold face lies to you. Unlike the obvious “Minority Report” inspired ad, the HP TouchSmart PC does not do the multi-touch gestures that we’ve all come to love on devices like the iPhone. At a glance, the new all-in-one machine from HP borrows heavily from Apple’s […]

 
The end result of good design is supposed to bring about exceptional aesthetic and it should be based on conveying an idea and solving problems. BMW is perusing just that with their concept car “GINA”. Designed by Chris Bangle, GINA approaches car design in a completely new way. Thinking of the vehicles exterior as an […]

Well played Mr. Jobs and relative Cupertino wizards. You’ve done it again by turning the world on it’s head and setting the pace for what is to come. Today marked one of the tech world’s most highly watched events WWDC, which is held in San Francisco’s Mascone Center. Apple announced a […]

The other night I was hanging out with my roommate, Juan, and his lady.  He was making dinner and I said, “Hey, let’s turn on some music.  Anyone have any suggestions for me to put into Pandora?”  Juan, being the poster child of brilliance, had a better answer-  “Oh, have you ever tried Musicovery?  It’s […]
