I’ve been really thinking a lot lately about whether the whole social networking space defined by tools like Twitter and Facebook are really worth engaging in.

After experiencing a couple of random shutdowns on my iPhone this weekend, here’s another example of Apple needing to make a few lawyers redundant and find some more tech types to fix their software problems…
Had to completely restore Nic’s phone for some marginal improvements, but she feels like throwing hers against a wall regularly… [...]

If Apple spent as much time on fixing their bugs as they do on this sort of nonsense, I’m sure I (for one) would be a much happier Apple fan boy.
Seriously, after the stupid problems I had with basic things on my Snow Leopard update, now my wife’s iPhone shutting down randomly after the 3.1 [...]

After being Microsoft Exchange users for some time now, we have begun a new tech adventure by shifting to the far more economical Gmail offering from Google by having our domain hosted through them.
It’s kind of funny, really. We’ve been thinking about the possibility of cutting back our IT costs by exploring options like [...]

Apple has this wonderfully interesting “Summary” utility service that allows you to obtain a summary of large chunks of text. The algorithm used is complex and it always intrigues me that somewhere in Cupertino there is a person/s playing around with this sort of stuff.
I decided to run the tool over Obama’s recent inauguration [...]

I was chatting to someone the other day about Facebook and the amount of time it takes to keep current with updates, etc., and it occurred to me as I was talking to them that my habits may not reflect those of others. Facebook takes very little of my time, but there is a [...]
