Oh no, an instant way to feed the addiction.

Sharing Big Files with MobileMe
How timely! Apple’s MobileMe got a feature upgrade allowing users to easily share big files with others. After uploading a file to your MobileMe iDisk, you can share it and get an accessible URL for the file. You can even assign a password and expire the shared file for added protection.
I needed to send a 20-MB PDF file to someone but email wouldn’t allow it. So instead, I shared the file using MobileMe and sent the user the public link. Cool!

Chris Brown and Rihanna Incident is Serious
Wow, with more details emerging of the altercation between Chris Brown and Rihanna, the more serious things are.
An Apple, an Ass, a Jewel, LT, a Lil Ex-con, a Wild Thing, a Returnee, and Another Olypmian on DWTS
Season 8 of Dancing with the Stars is one month way, but the line up of stars is just about set. Steve Wozniak, originally from Apple, is representing the geeks while Steve-O will see if a Jackass can dance. Singer Jewel and her hubby will be competing, and Lawrence Taylor will see if he’s a dancing giant. Rapper Lil’ Kim must be restarting her career after a stint in the slammer while Denise Richards is simply starting over.
Never say never with the return of Julianne Hough who said she was done dancing to focus on singing. But what happens when your boyfriend wants to dance? Olympian skaters must be banned from the series due to their successes so instead, why not see if Olympic gymnasts can foxtrot? Seventeen year old Shawn Johnson will make the crossover.
Who else will be going for that mirror ball trophy? Heaven on Earth Belinda Carlisle at 58 years old, In Living Color’s David Alan Grier, entertainment reporter and new mom Nancy O’Dell, and who’s Gilles Marini?
Breakfast Deals at Starbucks
Staring in March, Starbucks is going after the cost-conscious coffee addict with the introduction of breakfast Meal Deals. For $3.95, you’ll get a tall latte and pastry or a drip coffee with a breakfast sandwich.
There’s no mention of my favorite cheapo combo of coffee and a pastry. I guess you still can get that for less than $3.95 (and don’t forget the 10% discount for being a Gold member).
Grammy Action
Whoa, lots of activity at the Grammy Awards. Biggest news is the domestic assault of Rihanna by boyfriend, Chris Brown. It’s not really clear yet, but more details will surely emerge.
