How long does you iPhone battery have before it goes tits up?  You can now find out with this cool little widget.  Simply enter your date of purchase and it gives you the days, hours and minutes remaining.

I have 662 days left.  Jesus I could be dead by then.

Tech Crunch has compared the iPhone with the new Blackberry 8820.  It is a great run down of the feature sets on both phones.  I don’t care if the Blackberry is made of gold and whistles Dixie it will never be as awesome as my iPhone.  Though it would be nice to have the exchange working.  How much longer do I have to wait?

Sent to us by our beloved friend Heiser.  When I saw this page I fell out of my chair laughing.  The real humor is that most of what is said is all to true.

I have been talking smack about Microsofts new operating system since my first look at it last year.  Vista is easily one of the greatest disapointments on the software side of things in the last few years.  Not only is it a huge let down in features, it also takes a  Cray Super Computer to run the damn thing.

I was over joyed last week when I read Dell had the same miss giving about Vista.  They have been so let down by MS that they have begun to offer Windows XP again to their customer base.

Do you think Microsoft will every get it right again?

Good news for bloggers the world over. Last week Google, who bought Feedburner a couple of months ago, announced that the paid services for Feedburner will now be free.

I am currently running all of our blogs and video podcasts through Feedburner and I love the service. When I read this I was jumping for joy. One less thing I have to pay for each month. If you have a blog or podcast and you are not using this service, stop reading and go there now. It is a very usefully tool for tracking stats on the interenets.

The boys who brought you Dig are looking to take on our dear old friend Twitter with a new micro blogging application called Pownce.  It works basically the same way Twitter does, with a few extras.  Same “what are you doing” architecture, tell your homies what up. The layout style with Pownce allows you a bit more customization allowing you to change the look a bit more than Twitter.  Pictures and Files can change hands along with the ability to group contacts.  This of course is just what I have read, I have yet to secure an invite.  I guess what I am saying is, um… can you send me an invite?  The one big draw back that is evident, even to someone who has yet to get an invite, is you can not update through SMS.  No mobile update mean you never leave the house.  Which works for me because I am almost always at home.  But the rest of America might find this problematic?  Standing in a night club with my laptop is just not going to get me the chicks?

Finally the web is being used for something we are all in need of, a toilet.  A new service has launch called MizPee which runs either on your computer or mobile phone web browser.  You simply enter your location, it sends out a search and lets you know where the nearest restrooms are located.  Brilliant!

Yet another smart invention that I should have come up with, right?  I am always on the lookout for a good restroom.

Yes another post about the iPhone. Just read the article in the NY Times about the short falls of 1.0 iPhone. The keyboard the battery and most of all the lack of 3G are the big drawbacks. The pluses which if you have the dollars are well worth it include, email, new voice mail, new web browser, slick camera and screen, video and oh it is a iPod.

The madness has begun. Lines are beginning to form all over the country to purchase an iPhone. Get your lawn chairs, tents, extra pillows and a copy of the Lord of the Rings you will be waiting four days outside with bunch of strangers for a phone!

I guess if I had some extra time on my hands and no life I would be out there waiting. Ok so I do have some extra time and well some could say that I have “slow” social life. But to wait four days outside with no Internet, toilet or wii? That is crazy, unless of course you are going to sell it on ebay for $2000. Smart! Anyone have a tent I can borrow?
