Verizon says it's scrapping $2 online-payment fee →

Dan Frommer: Apple did have a succession plan - an obvious one. Apple is happy to go a whole year without a major hardware design revision. Apple isn’t tied to its once-a-yare, at-the-same-time-every-year product cycles at all costs. The iPhone is apparently enough of a mainstream news story that lots of people stop buying them when they hear a new one is coming out. Even the best...

Adventures in trying to sell a Laptop on...

A few months ago I bought a brand new 13” MacBook Air. Living in a big city I thought it would be fairly simple for me to resell my 4 year old MacBook Pro on Craigslist. I have a friend who did the same thing a few years ago and sold his MacBook for a handsome sum of money in less then 24 hours and I wrote his advertisement. I have not been so lucky. I have received several decent offers,...

My Goals for 2012

I know that this time of year spur many people to write posts like the Best of 2011 or Goals for 2012, that is what this is. I remember in elementary school the day before the Winter Holiday Vacation my teachers would always have us write down our goals or dreams for the new year. I have not really done it since then, nor have I ever stuck to a set of annual resolutions or goals. This year I...

Reading Outisde Your Bubble →

If we are only reading things that interest us, we’ll never find anything new. We’ll never try something a little bit outside of our comfort zone, and we’ll never grow as humans. A very insightful piece on why we all need to read more and read different things.

As people grow up, the gifts they receive around the holiday times change. When you’re a kid it’s all about the latest toys, a teen it’s technology, athletic equipment, concert tickets, when you’re in college the gifts mature but more often then not stay the same. When you’re a twenty-something gifts tend to become more utilitarian, things that will make your life a...

Facebook keeps you alive !

refaelos: Why people use Facebook or Twitter? Why people share videos, pictures and thoughts online? What pleasure do we get from the basic action of uploading a photo or sharing an idea? In the same breath one can also ask why people participate in reality shows, want to be a celebrity or even skydive? It all lies in the urgent need of every human being to feel alive. Human average life...
