Team Edward Puzzled
At Borders, I saw this jigsaw puzzle of Edward Cullen. The lineup of Twilight stuff just never ends.
Jai Ho from Slumdog Millionaire
Watched Slumdog Millionaire, what a show. Still feeling crummy for the kids and their living conditions in the slums of India. A great flick but with an out-of-character closing credits of the cast doing a group dance to Jai Ho. Here’s what I mean.
And since Nicole Scherzinger is in her hometown Hawaii performing the final concert of the Pussycat Dolls “Doll Domination” tour, here is the remade version of Jai Ho (You Are My Destiny).
The Twitpocalypse Is Here!
The Twitpocalypse is bug in the Twitter service that is active right now. I thought this was a joke, but the Twitpocalypse is the real deal with minor impact so far.
The Twitpocalypse is affecting the search function in Tweetie, my favorite Twitter client for the Mac and iPhone. The iPhone version of Twitterific was taken out due to the Twitpocalypse.

Awesome Comparison of iPhone, Pre, and Android
Billshrink has this visual comparison of features of the iPhone 3G S, the Palm Pre, and the Android G1.
Wow! Owning an iPhone over 2 years costs $3800! And well worth it!
Rundown of the iPhone 3G S
Macworld has a good rundown of the new iPhone 3G S phone along with AT&T upgrade pricing information. A funny line from the article:
In a sentence, what does the S get me?
Speed, swagger, sleek, sexy, sense-of-direction, and sinematography. It’s possible that we made that last word up.
Stop! It’s Hammer Time!

Penelope Trunk on Reading Blogs (and Everything Else)
Read Penelope Trunk’s latest post about how to feel like you have time to read everything. Some great quotes:
Only losers say they don’t have time to read blogs. Because everyone has the same 24 hours in the day.
reading blogs is not high enough on your priority list to read them
Stop talking about information overload. That term is for weaklings
And information synthesizers don’t feel overwhelmed by information – they either use it or they don’t, but they don’t whine that there’s too much.
Information is not something you have time for or don’t have time for. Information is either helping you meet your goals or not.

Competitive Soccer Signage
