OK, so I am a flickr addict (maybe there is a flickr anonymous or something out there that I ought to be signing up for), but even if I were not I think there should be a way to automate adding my images to various groups. It’s frustrating to have to do it all manually :o(

This morning as I was picking my coffee on my way to work, I saw the latest issue of Wired Magazine and this article on “Netbooks” caught my attention (enough so that I actually bought the copy).
As I was reading the article, I remembered how excited I was when I first heard of the MacBook Air (and how I got turned off at the price – talk about sticker shock).

I am looking at the BOSE 3-2-1 series as a possible solution for my “home theater” solution but the absence of Blu-Ray DVD is really making it difficult :o( When I called the Customer Care folks (they only have phone access, no online system) he started giving me excuses like:
When I countered that Blu-Ray is the only High Definition option (since HD DVD has been pulled), he finally agreed that BOSE “might” one day have a Blu-Ray option, but nothing that was in the plans at this time.
I suppose BOSE is more interested in the “sound” aspect of the “Home Theater” issue and to them anything that has anything to do with the video is not as important.
But to the Customer Care’s credit, he did point me to the CineMate speakers ONLY solution from Bose that allows me to use my existing existing gear including my “yet-to-be-purchased” Blue-Ray DVD player. This at least allows me to replace my existing floor standing JBL speakers (which I love, but is taking up too much “space”).

Apple, by upgrading iPhone to iPhone 2.0, has really taken Mobile Phone to a totally different level. With the introduction of the “App Store” they have opened up a world of possibilities to the millions of current and would be iPhone users.

Couldn’t think of a better toy ;o)
The Mobile Phone is becoming more popular everyday (or so it seems). I don’t know what the actual numbers are, but seems to me that everyone these days carries a mobile phone with them. Most mobile phone makers have added features to their phone that makes it more and more difficult to call the device a “phone” any more. They ought to be called something like “Personal Organizer / Entertainment Device / Digital Camera / Phone”.
The iPhone, from Apple, has taken a lot of these features and put them together with a very nice interface. A couple of the features that they have really improved upon are the:
While most phones already have these options, the iPhone (with it’s larger screen) has made them more usable / useful.
Unfortunately, with the huge price tag and a single carrier Apple has made it more difficult for most consumers to get the wonderful “toy”.
