Redefining Work Etiquette

Published in Untagged  by OOH | Comment (0)


You may remember my post from a few weeks ago about how obnoxious using your cell phone at the dinner table can be.  I was referencing a New York Times article that argued, akin to my own feelings on cell phone etiquette, that there are certain times when playing (or working) on your cell phone can be plain rude.  Interestingly enough, another article published in today’s New York Times by Alex Williams aims to justify (or at least explain) why people think it’s ok to use their cell phones when anyone else in the room, namely a snob like myself, might be slightly put off.  That article can be read here

iPhone 3GS... the wait is over.

Published in Untagged  by OOH | Comment (0)


With the new iPhone 3GS hitting shelves tomorrow, it’s hard to
ignore the upgrades Apple has included on the newest model.  Finally, unlike the old iPhone, users will be able to cut and paste, record video and use voice activated dialing among other features.  What’s more amazing then these features being absent from previous models though, is that for several years, you have been able to perform these same tasks on simpler, basic cell phones.  But people love the iPhone and I’m sure they already love the new one even though they haven’t yet actually seen it.

Can't afford a ticket? Spectate from home.

    Over the past few weeks, I, like many others I’m sure, have been continuously let down by the weather forecast.  They say it’ll be nice one day and rain the next and inevitably the exact opposite seems to occur.  Still, we have had an abundance of unpleasant days and rainy weather.  Yesterday, it even hailed several inches in parts of Northern New Jersey.  What?!?! So, Saturday afternoon as the rain came down and my plans to attend a BBQ were thwarted, I had to find some piece of mind.   Thank you Ustream.tv.

Get Ready for the A-Show: Palm Pre vs. Apple iPhone

Published in Untagged  by OOH | Comment (0)





With the release of Palm’s newest smartphone last weekend, it appears the iPhone finally has some real competition. The Palm Pre has apparently sold out everywhere, evoking memories of the iPhone’s initial release a whopping two years ago. In those two years, many more smartphones have hit the market and still more applications and upgrades have found their way onto the iPhone. So, with the iPhone as unparalleled as it seems to have been in the market for mobile technology, it might be a surprise that one phone is—and has been for months—being considered the most equal competition yet for the iPhone.

That's App-tacular!

Coming up with a great idea for an application is no easy task. Executing it before anyone else can be even harder. But what makes an iPhone/mobile app a great success? I read a great post worth checking out on Geekpreneur entitled ‘Anatomy of a Successful iPhone App.’ You can find that article here. (http://www.geekpreneur.com/anatomy-of-a-successful-iphone-app)
