Man robbed because of Twitter? First possible Twitter robbery

In quite possibly the dumbest news story of the day, a man who posted on Twitter that he made it to Kansas City had his house in Arizona robbed presumably later that day. He feels that it might be connected to his Twitter post:
We made it to Kansas City in one piece. We’re [...]

Earth Hour 2009

Earth Hour 2009 is happening tonight, Saturday 28, 2009 at 8:30PM your local time. Anyone participating? All it requires is turning off your lights for an hour to promote global awareness. So why not participate?!

Pat McDonough – ‘Speak English’ campaign

In the past few years, there’s this politician that has come along named Pat McDonough that decided it’d be an excellent idea to have his campaign revolve around speaking English and flaunting signs that read “Speak English!” To him I say: Shut up.

D.C. Photography Ban

There was an interesting Flickr group and new segment on Fox News ( video ) about a photographer that decided that after taking pictures in a public place and being approached by security guards he’d speak up and rally against this action by the security guard. According to the video and posts on Flickr, [...]

Why are some internet users so naive?

There was an interesting study I read about recently regarding computer users and entering in sensitive information into web forms such as their ‘bank’. What the study showed was that users generally ignored the fact that they were not on a secure site or even their bank’s site. Here’s a quick breakdown of [...]

Sirius and XM Merger?

I heard about it last night and it angers me.
I’m not sure what all of the hype is about since none of this is official (i.e. has not been approved). It still has to be approved, making it a huge monopoly if approved and making things interesting. So that doesn’t mean this [...]

Heads Up! Suspicious Accounts and a Possible New Spam Technique?

I have a feeling that there might be a new spam robot going around with the user handle: “janeseymore09092″
Recently on my other site (which attracts a few visitors here and there) The Dangers Of MySpace, I noticed a new account. No one has ever registered for this site and I have since taken down [...]

Graduate of the University of Delaware!

Yesterday, I graduated (officially) from the University of Delaware. Commencement was held at 10:20AM and lasted for about two hours. It was pretty neat and short enough that people weren’t getting antsy, granted only winter and summer graduates attended so it was significantly less than that of a spring graduation.
To add to that, [...]

Go Green in 2007

An interesting article was posted on MSNBC today about the top 10 ways you can go green and not change your lifestyle drastically. The cool thing about it is that it’s all achievable and realistic. The article is at the following link: Environment: Easy to Be Green
Some of the suggestions include subscribing to [...]

24 Countdown Widget for OS X Updated

Today, I released a new version of the 24 Countdown Widget*, inspired by the popular TV show 24
on FOX.
New in this release is the following:

New Interface and redesign.
Countdown timer now doesn’t have aliasing around it in certain situations.
Countdown timer now counts down to the next airing episode of 24 without user interaction, meaning if the [...]
