Cuil: First Impression

The buzz today has been about Cuil, a new search engine that is challenging the current champion of the interwebs, Google. Pronounced “cool,” Cuil makes the claim to have indexed more pages than Google, and in a better way too! That’s quite the claim, and IMHO, Cuil needs to heat up a bit (sorry).

The Switch: Week 2

About 10 days in and I am enjoying my Mac experience more and more. I don’t know if it was just the hardware, but going onto my brother’s Windows machine I realized how slow everything really is.

My Weekend with the 8830

I’ve been using my Treo now for just about two years. Don’t get me wrong; when I first got it, it was like nothing I’ve ever used. It was new and exciting. The phone before the treo was boring and bland. It didn’t give me what I needed. The Treo changed all that. But now, nearly two years into it,…

Cell Phone News

From Engadet Mobile: Joshua Topolsky Went back to: Palm Treo 650 “I returned the phone because I couldn’t find a way to justify spending $600 on what amounts to a closed system. It’s like buying a laptop you can’t tweak or put software on. Also, I was highly annoyed by the keyboard and EDGE (although the iPhone’s implementation seems faster…
