The Sky Is Falling The Sky Is Falling!!!

……..
Use mass-transit or your feet to get to work. If you can’t, move so you can. If you can’t afford a place as big as your current one, make do with less. Maybe you don’t need a giant house. You may have to give up your dream of having a separate room for your books.
(I know that most New Yorkers are already good at this sort of thing. We’re the exception. If more of the...
VW Kills Rabbit Name, Again →
maniacalrage:
I’m sad about this because I think Rabbit is a better name and brand. I have a Rabbit, and I love it. The logo is great, and I don’t know a single person who golfs… the name Golf has always seemed strange to me. Granted, I don’t know anyone who is a rabbit either, but. (via airbag)
Ditto I preferred the Rabbit name.

“Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc. surged 13 percent to $17.57. The drinks maker spun off by Cadbury Plc said earnings will be as much as $1.67 a share this year, more than the $1.61 average estimate of analysts surveyed by Bloomberg.” I’d like to think that I single handedly based on my daily Dr.Pepper intake am the cause for this great news.

South Park - Margaritaville →
rickyv:
Sometimes I forget how amazing South Park is. Then I’ll watch an episode and be instantly reminded. On last night’s episode, Matt and Trey came through on their trademark ability to take a complex current issue and boil it down to a storyline that not only sums it up, but is funny to a large age range. Check it out here if you missed it.
True true, I also saw last nights episode and it...

My dad always sends me these Pat Buchanan articles. I like picking through them and see what I agree/disagree with. I think the above quote makes sense, though his discussion about the financial sector offering sub-prime loans because politicians pressured them to is...

Political Base Epic PoliSci Fail
Every time I go back to see if Political Base has refound its way I am saddened greatly. Political Base started off as a great idea, a social community of reasoned political discussion and news. Since Mid 08 of course the site took the turn for the worse and denigrated into nothing more than a Democratic spin machine. Too bad for them good for me. It’s a project idea I’ve toyed around...

iPhone OS 3.0
Today Twitter and the Applesphere was all abuzz over the upcoming iPhone OS 3.0 preview next week. Everyones got there wish lists (this is a great one). But there are some features that people aren’t asking for that I think we should.
Facebook integration. Deep integration like what we have seen on the Palm Pre. I want to see my friends status in their contact card.
Unified Messaging....

WatchJon Stewart was in my book for the past 6 years nothing more than a Democratic mouth piece, posing as a journalist and corrupting information for his own ideological purposes. However, this rant against CNBC which rightfully deserves it is so fantastic and so redeeming that me and Jon are now cool again.

Twitter, What Makes It Awesome?
@
Thats it.
Simply the ability to communicate with people and mention people with @personsname.
If Facebook wants to take on Twitter, which we all know it does, then it needs to add the ability to add @Friends Name to a status update to mention people. So much of what we are doing is centered around doing things with others. So if I’m going to the movies with some friends I’d like...

iPhone Next?
Today it seems like Apple updated every damn thing, clearly they’ve been hard at work since their lackluster showing at MacWorld. That makes me think the next thing to see an update will be the iPhone, not sure about an all new iPhone but for sure an iPhone OS Update. Finally deliviring on the features that users have been clamoring for since the iPhone 3g. Apple has some stiff competition...
