Microsoft and Skype? That's an odd coupling. Merge with Win 8 and make Windows a subscription model including Skype services? # eBay's fee now is 9% of the final price of an auction? Yikes. Time to start using Kijiji. # Playing with face recognition in AS3. It works! # Hard to believe Sony's most recent […]
Even Sony, who owns a ton of content, can't bring out a download service in Canada with a decent library. http://t.co/0pX4Qvt # Wow, Sony took down the EQ servers too. "…we have discovered an issue that warrants enough concern for us to take the service down" # I feel bad for Sony. This is huge. […]
Need a new fridge. So much cheaper to drive to the US to get one. http://t.co/2gaX5vA vs http://t.co/H0CEbKi Almost $1000 difference! # Easter 2011 passed without me eating a single Peep. # Thanks @Hunterdan77 for the kickass nachos! # Wow. http://t.co/L1c31kO # @travelmop Think it's got anything to do with free services vs paid?

This is what I've been up to lately: http://t.co/uitizkT # The National Film Board app for the #playbook is pretty nice. # LiveCycle Mobile for the #PlayBook http://t.co/LjEpuUA # Still waiting for RIM to approve my other #PlayBook app. It's a personal app, less businessey. # The #PlayBook shows up in the Finder all the […]

My MacBook Pro's video is failing. This is the fourth MacBook Pro I've had video trouble with. I'm not impressed. # When I'm out, I have my phone with me and use it as a camera. Around the house, I have a tablet with me. A good camera on a tablet matters. # This is […]
Clement on #UBB "We will be guided by our long-standing policies of … allowing market forces to prevail." Bad idea, Tony. # http://t.co/lsE903j #
Tax Time. # Is DSL upstream bandwidth limited by the technology, or by ISPs? # xkcd is a comic version of Jon Stewart. Funny, but damn informative when making a point. On radiation: http://t.co/H9s72FN # For years we've been hearing about how mobile is the next big thing. This time, it really is! # BlackBerry […]
Has Netflix Canada added any new movies since launch? Doesn't look like it to me. # Xbox Dashboard Update: Netflix Canada on the 360. So far the UI looks nicer than the PS3 one – the movie box shots are bigger anyway. # Looks like there's one new movie on Netflix Canada .. http://www.netflix.ca/WiMovie/Into-Temptation/70123368?trkid=809936 # […]
