I’m the type of person that has to write everything down. If I don’t write it down, it simply doesn’t get done. It’s not necessarily the easiest trait to deal with, but thankfully there are a number of applications that help me remember everything I have to do, everywhere I have to be, and all [...]

The iPhone is, after all this time, still the pretty new girl on the block. I can’t think of any other cell phone that has become quite the style icon that the iPhone has become. It’s got features, looks, and an interface no one else has been able to match. It also comes with a [...]

Then I found Diigo, and suddenly Delicious didn’t look so good anymore. Diigo is another social bookmarking service (and [...]

Twitter is quickly becoming one of the most used social networks on the planet. People are documenting their jobs and lives, 140 characters at a time.
