Mozilla Firefox

Posted in Tech at 5:13 pm by earl

Mozilla Firefox is somewhat of a Internet Explorer killer. And boy does it kill. I’m typing this post with this pretty neat software, and it gets the job done. The tab system works nearly as well as IE7’s, but just the look of it is shiny and cool. I will probably use Firefox more than IE7. I love this software and I recommend it to anyone tired with Internet Explorer 7. You can download it extremely easily at www.download.com.

Cool Tech-June 4

Posted in Tech at 11:39 am by earl

This will be a new series I’m starting showing all of the coolest Tech that’s hitting stores soon or has already hit. This is a new category I’m starting, and I’m excited.

Palm Foleo-This super-lite laptop hit stores on May 30th, 2007, and at a lite 2.4 pounds, it’s bringing new meaning to the word “portable computers”.  It’s compatible with your smartphone, and it has Wi-Fi, which is a very nice and handy feature. The battery life although, is weak and the price of $500 is a tad steep. But hey, it’s only 2.4 pounds! That’s worth $500? Isn’t it? 

IPhone-Apple’s new IPhone will be hitting shelves soon, but at $600, is it worth it? This handy little phone will come in the 4 GB version and an 8 GB Version. It will boast a digital player, bluetooth, and a built-in camera. The phone of course looks awesome, and the multi-point touchscreen is awesome as well. This mega-phone will also come with an internet browser, which is sure to make Apple fans shake. This phone will be sure to shoot to the stars like the Ipod when it comes out late this month.

The Razr

Posted in Tech, Weapons of Mass Enjoyment at 8:45 am by earl

 

You may be familiar with a cellular phone called the Razr. I personally don’t like these phones. The  body where you’re supposed to put your fingers is too small! I can’t hold on to it! It’s ridiculous! Please, make the base a little fatter! When people ask me, “Do you want a Razr?”, I’ll just say no thanks, I’m still waiting for the rotary dial cellphone. Which I am.
