Look, there’s a time and place for phone calls. YOU just don’t seem to get it. Unexpected or unplanned phone calls are slowly but surely becoming the new anti-social smoking.

The Blackberry Brigade can keep on scratching their heads and punishing themselves in general, as I present another wonderful app I have found to use with my iPhone.

It’s taken me MANY years to think about purchases before I make them – such is the change from only child to only man.

THE WEB ECONOMY BULLSHIT GENERATOR
11 Sep 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 3 Comments
I deal with a lot of geeks. But, because I’ve had a computer since the tender age of six, I can pretty much hold my own when they throw around tech jargon. Ja, the data is “corrupt,” bru. Your “server” doesn’t support “mySQL.” Ja, ja – whatever. And it gets even worse when you get […]
