In Android vs. iPhone, Will It Be All About The Benjamins?

In advance of the release of the Android OS for the T-mobile today at 10:30 EST there are a ton of questions — most of which I will not be addressing in this post.  One of them, however, seems to have escaped the attention of most bloggers and that is this: will the quality and [...]

Chrome’s “Resolving Host” Problem Solved

Well, solved for me anyway.  Sometime a few hours after it was released, Firefox stopped becoming my regular browser, and Chrome *did*.  I know — I was kind of amazed myself, in spite of all the plugins I’ve been missing.  At any rate, one thing I’ve begun noticing has been getting worse: its seeming inability [...]

Google Acquiring Valve? Makes Total Sense. Here’s Why.

Google’s Chrome: The Only Two Things You Need To Know

Having played around with Google’s new browser, Chrome, I’d like to offer my two bits to the ongoing bloggasm around its release.  If you’re looking for an indepth review, wander over to Uncle Walt’s breakdown. I modestly submit to you that if you’re a busy individual, these are the only two things you really need [...]

Google’s Chrome Could Be Crap — And It Would Still Gain Market Share

Lots of interesting news about Google’s new browser, Chrome, and lots more interesting questions around it.  I love the comic by Scott Adams McCloud, being a fan of his work (mainly Understanding Comics and Making Comics ) as well, but that’s beside the point.  The most surprising news, for me, is that its not being [...]
