An ideal phone headset should be comfortable, soft, durable, easy to use and also inexpensive. Once upon a time this simple phrase said it all regarding.
The phrase "app store" has quickly become the most annoyingly buzzy term of the summer—who doesn't have one nowadays? Up until about four seconds ago , if you answered "OS X" you would've been right. A desktop app store is fundamentally different than a mobile one, especially a closed system like the Apple's, since users are already accustomed to finding and installing their apps piecemeal. Desktop app stores are a convenience—not a necessity or a mandate—an idea which IDFusion...
In Fever Pitch, Nick Hornby tells us what a match requires to be “really, truly memorable.” He wants as many of the following as possible (and I paraphrase): goals, bad refereeing decisions, a noisy Crowd, rain etc, opposition misses a penalty, opposition recieves a red card, a disgraceful incident. I’m with him on everything except maybe the disgraceful incident. And I would add to the list: A short bout of bad football from one’s own side . There’s probably a better way to phrase it, bu

1 Star Not iPod Touch 2nd Generation compatible
I was one of the unlucky ones who got a wall charger that it’s advertised as 2G compatible, but it just makes my iPod goes “crazy” when I connect this crappy charger. By crazy, I mean, it goes off and on repeatedly like it was being disconnected and connected back again from the wall outlet and it never stops. This is for the wall charger only, but I’m not so willing now to even try the car charger after this mishap. I guess the “you get what you paid for” phrase is ringing loudly through my ears…

1 Star Works Great, If you don’t want to use it more than once…
Read ALL the reviews – you get what you pay for! It looks like junk and trust me please, it IS junk. I used the home outlet charger ONCE and it charged my 2nd Gen iPod quickly, but then I went to remove it from the outlet. One of the prongs broke off IN my outlet! Luckily there was enough metal sticking out that, once I shut off the breaker, I was able to pull out the metal prong. I’ve yet to use the car charger, but you can imagine how much faith I have in its repeated use… AVOID!

1 Star Can we please make this simple!
Works for my iPod nano, but not on my 80 GB iPod Classic. Cheap is not always better!

4 Stars ipod charger
Rapid chargers are very useful. one for the home, one for the car, never run out of battery again. Charges in no time.

5 Stars I’m with 6 Appeal
I read the review of 6 appeal who said that they were worried about whether this would work with the ipod touch2nd gen. I was in the same boat, but I followed their advice and I’m just as pleased as punch. For the price, it just can’t be beat.

Tim and I had a fun Google Chat back in March about a concept for a book called "Too Big to Succeed." The window for a book on this theme to become a blockbuster is almost closed, so I figure it's time to stop hoarding the idea and make it a blog post. The phrase "too big to succeed" has already infected the cultural lexicon this year. A quick sweep of Google shows it being applied to the banking industry, the auto industry, Twitter, big Pharma, China, and Washington, among other things.
People often ask me how I write my books. "Outloud," I usually reply. After three books, I've found that the freshest prose comes from the lips, not from the fingertips. Think about it: You sit down to type, watching each keystroke grace the screen. Your mind has to juggle that on top of what you are attempting to write. When you speak, on the other hand, you are talking without thinking about writing. Often, you'll get on a roll, and turn a phrase in a folksy way - unlike the clinical way mo
