Hot Tech Items this Christmas (2007)

Note: This article was published while I was in my early 20s. I was much younger and dumber. Please don't hold it against me. One of the perils of having a 20+ year old website!
Nintendo Wii

With just about two weeks until Christmas, I am getting some questions about what fun tech toys would make good Christmas gifts. So here are a few things I feel will be a hit this holiday season.

Nintendo Wii
Over a year after it’s release, Wii is still selling very well and is almost impossible to find. It’s a fun system to play and there are games for everyone. And with new and upcoming releases like Mario Galaxy, Mario Striker Charged and Super Smash Brothers Brawl, who could pass it up?
iPod Touch
While I am not a fan of the iPod or Apple in general, the iPod Touch will be a hot item this year. It’s an iPod with internet capalbilities so you can download music right to your iPod. Or check your email. Or sports scores. Or the weather. You get the picture. As for me, I have my sights set on a new Zune.
HD Player
As prices drop for both HD DVD and Blu-Ray players, these should be a pretty hot item this year. I personally am a fan of HD DVD because of it’s backwards compatibility with DVDs and the fact that it’s supported by Xbox with the HD DVD Player drive. I though I guess it comes down to the movies and tv shows HD DVD and Blu-Ray have to offer.

    I wrote perhaps my most popular blog post ever just over 2 months ago. I talked about how I bought, used, and subsequently didn’t like the iPhone 6. I would be sticking with Android…or so I thought. Shortly after that post got popular, I was compelled to take another look at iOS.

  • Are Content Products “Real” Products to WordPress Developers?

    I’ve been a developer for 20 years. I’ve been a content creator for almost as long…but it wasn’t until a few years ago that I started making more money from my content than from my development work. 

    Both are crucial for a growing, vibrant WordPress community. But to some, it seems the job of development is more important than the job of content creation. Here’s why those people are wrong.
