Addicted to Passions and Pulp
From the monthly archives:
Still don’t know what to give as gifts this holiday season? Santa Pulpy recommends some Pulpy underpants! Custom designed and inspired by Pulpconnection, these underpants are sure to come in handy.
For instance, say you’re a 25-year old mother with 2 kids, recently divorced, and having some fun in Sin City and the City [...]

On December 30, 2005, I relayed an article about three ways to double website traffic. The three ways are to use Technorati, use Feedburner, and use Trackbacks. In the post, I also dreamed that maybe Pulpconnection could get up to 20 hits a day if I follow these recommendations.
Since then I continued to [...]

Just noticed that Pulpconnection’s RSS subscription count spiked today. Usually Feedburner reports 8 to 10 subscriptions, but today I see a spike of 15 subscriptions.
Part of the reason why I started using Feedburner was to track the number of RSS subscriptions that Pulpconnection was getting. Just more statistics collecting than anything else [...]

After remembering my note to self, I installed the Opera Mini browser on my Motorola v540 phone. I used the SMS link download option where I got an SMS message with the link to download and install the software. Pretty simple.
Here are some pictures of the Opera Mini install. SMS link to [...]

Try out the Operamini broswer for Java-based cell phones. Check if phone is compatible.

Just a subtle reminder to WW to bring the Gap and Niketown F&F coupons for pickup on Tuesday.
Thanks!

I may be preaching to the choir, but Apple released three new Get a Mac commercials, Gift Exchange, Sales Pitch, and Meant for Work.
Gift Exchange is pretty funny with PC hoping to get a C++ GUI programming book for Christmas.
Who hasn’t gotten a Mac? Wayne’s World – check. The Tabasco Man – check. [...]

Christmas time is almost here, so it’s time to rev up the Pulpconnection Holiday Gift Guide.
First up is Nike’s unreleased Amp+ wristwatch. Although it hasn’t been officially released, Men’s Health magazine is already featuring this gadget in its 2007 Tech Guide. Supposedly the Amp+ wirelessly ties into your iPod so that you can [...]

Here is just one review of the recently released Microsoft Zune music player. Some snippets:
I’ve spent a week setting this thing up and using it, and the overall experience is about as pleasant as having an airbag deploy in your face.
The Zune is a complete, humiliating failure. Toshiba’s Gigabeat player, for example, is far [...]

Mashups are pretty popular these days. There’s the Web 2.0 mashup applications then there’s the mashups of a musical variety. Get two or more songs, let deejays mash them together in interesting ways and get something original. For example, take Kanye West’s Gold Digger, throw in some Beethoven, and you end up [...]

There sure is a lot to learn about the popular blogging software WordPress. Running your own WP server is easy but also not so easy. There’s so much you can (and should) customize that the learning curve becomes real steep real fast.
I finally learned about widgets which is already installed on [...]

I had read about getting music (and music videos) from YouTube before, primarily from a funny post on Mark Cuban’s Blog Maverick. Never looked into it until now…
Even though I didn’t luck out and did not get an Xbox 360 for $100, I’ve seen commercials for some of the 360 games and one stood [...]

Okay, I didn’t make it to the first Black Friday sale for Kicks HI but did get a peek at the madness thanks to KHON2. Tannya Joaquin did a story on Holiday Credit Card Tips, and this piece featured video footage of shoe heads feeding their fetish at Kicks HI.
People waited for three hours [...]

For the heck of it, I tried getting one of those Xbox 360 systems for $100 at Amazon. At about 4 minutes until the start of the sale, refreshing Amazon became real slow. Must have taken about 30-60 seconds. The next refresh took even longer. After one more refresh, I got [...]

I can feel the search queries going already. Gregg Pitts, the director of the White House Travel Office, was mugged while exiting Bobby G’s in the International Marketplace last night at about 2 in the morning. A very unfortunate incident for Hawaii and its tourist reputation.
Since the incident, I’m thinking the Net has [...]

Whoa, Google’s stock is now valued at over $500 a share. Most impressive.
If you haven’t tried out any of Google’s other services, take a look to see where the future is headed. A coworker and I played around with Google Docs to check out its simultaneous editing feature. It was way cool [...]

The popular Sci-Fi hit, Battlestar Galactica, may be moving to Sunday nights from its Friday night spot.
BSG is a solid show that surprisingly isn’t focused on science fiction. Most of the issues deal with humanity and morality. Go figure from a show where robotic Cylons are involved. If you want to catch [...]

Hmmm, interesting. Playing around with Digg.com and “dugg” a post written by RK of #include . There was a “blog this” option and the below section is the result. Pretty nifty feature of Digg. Be sure to digg the article.
*sigh* When will the Web 2.0 movement come to Hawaii? Includes [...]
