AT&T != Love

I like how I just received my iPhone 3G S via Fedex overnight today (4 days late and a couple hundred dollars short I might add) but they are making me sit through at least a 20 minute hold time to activate the stupid thing. What’s the point of being a premier customer? *&^$!@!!!
UPDATES:

It has [...]

AT&T iPhone 3G S

To whom it may concern at AT&T:
Today, I preordered the new iPhone 3G S but I am far from stoked about my decision to commit yet another two years to your lackluster corporation. Let me be clear, the only reason I have stuck around is due to the fact that you give me a killer [...]

If you have a TomTom GPS, Homer Simpson can be your copliot! The voice was recorded by the one and only Dan Castellaneta who also is the voice actor for the TV show. I think it would start to annoy me if I used it all the time but I would definately spend the $12.95 [...]

Nike Fight Night Pacquiao vs. Hatton

About a week ago, I got a personal invite from everyone’s favorite Nike employee, Mark, to come check out the Pacquiao/Hatton fight at an event Nike dubbed “Fight Night.” They rented out the Victoria Theatre in San Francisco and showed the fight on the theatre’s large cinema display with surround sound.

Ike’s Place San Francisco

If you like sandwiches, you definitely need to check out Ike’s Place in San Francisco. I’ve been hearing a lot about this sandwich shop from friends and randomly decided to check it out with a friend before we went to the Nike Fight Night.

What is the 10,000 hour rule?

If you aren’t familiar with the 10,000 hour rule, take a few minutes to learn something new!
In Malcolm Gladwell’s book, “Outliers,” Gladwell discusses the concept in detail (although the idea itself is nothing new). In order to gain mastery of your field, you must practice a lot, at least 10,000 hours. Be it programming, learning [...]
