Found this post in an old blog while conducting an internet enema, and it filled me with nostalgia for the days before smartphones. Thought I’d re-post it. Last week, I found myself shivering with cold sweats. It had been ages since I had spent a ridiculous amount of money on a marginally useful gadget. So, [...]

If you’re using MobileMe push mail, and you make changes to your mail accounts (any of them, even if you add one), it sometimes goofs up the push.  Dunno why; it shouldn’t.  But it seems to, and I spent ages trying to diagnose why my MobileMe mail wasn’t pushing properly after I added a Gmail [...]

Today, I’d like to take a moment to pay my respects to the greatest gizmo of all time: The Nintendo Power Glove. For those of you who don’t remember, the Power Glove was released as a peripheral to the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1989. That is also, coincidentally, when it entered my heart.

Seriously. Unless you’re a gadget nut, write a tech blog, or are particularly dependent on your cell phone, you’re not going to give a shit about this post. Even if you are, you probably still won’t care. But I’m annoyed.
