Apple’s iPad: Beyond the name
OK, I’ve already written a post about how ridiculous the name iPad is, but now it’s time to do a review on what it actually is, and how useful it could be. I just watched the keynote. Personally, there wasn’t anything hugely surprising in it. The built in apps are nice, and so is the availability [...]

28. January 2010
Continuing on the iPad news, I thought I would throw in my views, seeing as there’s so much hype about it right now. First off, iAgree with Zagorath. iPad was a terrible choice of name, and sounds far too much like a certain product. Any other company couldn’t sell this. But Zagorath has already elaborated on this [...]

Oh Good Lord! *smacks his face* iCan’t believe they actually called it the iPad. It is such an awful name iCan’t even begin to say how bad it is. iCan, off the top of my head, think of two reasons that it’s a bad name. The first is a relatively minor one, but still important.

18. November 2009
I recently got back from a FOBISSEA Music trip in Manila. The trip was heaps of fun, although there were a huge number of issues with it. I’m sitting here, having finally gotten a moment of peace after a disastrous first day of FOBISSEA Music 2009* in Manila.

24. October 2009
As you may have already heard about somewhere, Google is experimenting with a new homepage. Google is well-known for being minimalistic, and for striving for simplicity. The idea that Google is now trying out is to remove most of the text from their already simple homepage. Before, Google’s homepage had eight words along the top left [...]
