AppStore – Happy Birthday!

Wow, the app store is only one. Seems like it should be older with 50,000 apps in the store. Impressive work Apple!

Apple has put together a special link to celebrate some of the top apps of the past year.

Speaking of iPhone Apps… stay tuned for an announcement in the next week concerning a side project that I have been working on. We have some big plans in the works.

5 of 20

The big boss and I were watching VH1’s Top 20 Countdown this morning and noticed something rather interesting. 5 of the 20 videos were by American Idol Alumni. Whether you are a fan of Idol or not, you have to admit it has been a rather impressive phenomenon.

The convenience of the internet

I recently ordered tickets online for a Broadway show that’s coming into town this fall. I was expecting the price to be fairly pricey seeing as this is a pretty hot show and its the first time that it is coming to our town.

There are some fees that I don’t really care about. Restoration Fees to keep the facility looking nice and operating well is fine by me. However, $4.75 for the convenience of ordering via the internet?!?! PER TICKET!!!! Are you freaking kidding me! If anything, it should be EASIER for me to order via online. Sure I get that there are costs for hosting, bandwidth and software. But c’mon, that has to be cheaper than additional phone lines, personnel, benefits, overtime, etc.

Ames Window

Wicked!

This perspective window by Adelbert Ames upsets size-shape scaling to produce remarkable effects.

Customer Service Matters

Recently, our CR-V has developed what can best be describe as a cigarette smell to it after it has been sitting closed up for several hours. The thing is, we don’t smoke. We don’t think that we part near a smoking area so it is rather odd that this smell has started to develop. In an effort to fight this phenomena, I found the location of the cabin air filters, vacuumed them off and attempted to vacuum the chamber that they sit in as best I could. I think it has gotten better, but still not 100%. While I had the filters out, I noticed that they were in desperate need of replacement, so I did what everyone would do, fire up google and look for replacements.
