This is a really cool idea, and it’s one that is fairly obvious to the point where you wonder why you didn’t think of it. This comes from the mind of a recent graduate of a design school. It’s an office desk that incorporates plants to create a cubicle atmoshpere. Not only does it provide [...]
Well, this is good news for me if no one else. My wife loves the iPhone, but I prefer Verizon’s network and quality. So, for the longest time, we’ve had two separate cellular accounts in the house with not a break in site. Now comes news that Apple is working on an iPhone that will [...]
Apparently some people just need a date real bad. We’ve all heard of party crashers and the Vince Vaughn movie Wedding crashers made it seem cool. But there seems to be a new breed of crasher: internet singles crasher. The major matchmaking sites like match.com advertise on TV, so we know they’re out there, but [...]

As much as I try to stay in touch with the wheelings and dealings of this electronic community, there are certain things I just don’t know. For instance, I was reading a story by Bob Sullivan who details prevalent internet scams. I had no idea that FBI impersonators are a very common scam. You would [...]
This is an old story, but it’s one that I think bears repeating. Oregon just implemented a handheld cell-phone ban in vehicles at the beginning of this year. Some people got in a tizzy about it naturally and some probably still are. But I see the reasoning for it. I live in Illinois near Chicago, and [...]
