Okay, today I am going to try and introduce you to a web app that will overtime grow and try to organize your life. Of course, I have used this app for a little while (more than a day or two) and it works pretty well. I don’t see much use for it right now, but the future can be brighter than we ever imagined, right?

8apps

This site is currently by invite only. But don’t worry, I have 50 invites and am happy to send them out if anyone wants to check out the site. It is made up of 4 applications right now. One ,Handshake, is a social networking application, another ,Pinpoint, is a meeting organizer, Orchestrate is a personal to do list manager, and Blueprint is a bulletin board that allows users to combine ideas… on a … bulletin board…

Anyways, if you get enough people on here, it could be an amazing tool. As it is right now, it is a little boring and trivial, but it is still worth a look at just to see what Web 2.0 can do.

First off, I want to say that I am sorry to the few that come here to actually read my blog. I haven’t been on to post any new news in a long time. Hopefully, that will change.

Also, I want to retract a story that I posted from February 27th of this year. It was about how the Sony PS3 would, in all likelihood, not drop their prices until 2009. Of course, that was way off. I had never guessed that Sony would need to drop their prices to increase sales. Anyone that loves the business of video games, such as I do, knows the multiple reasons why Sony made this move. One was to help boost sales, another was to regain attention from the media and help push the PS3 name back out into the public, and yet another was to help liquidate the lower 20 GB hard drive model to make room for the 80 GB model. Anyways, I am sorry to lead those that read this blog on. My intention is not to do that…

Thanks for reading.

When ever I find a new Web Application that I enjoy I like to share it with people. The best way to find great sites is to share findings with other people.

Today, I am going to share one of my favorite web apps. It is called meebo. Yes, with a lower case m.

What is meebo?
Meebo is an online IM (instant messaging) service that allows users to have all of their instant messaging clients up and running at the same time. Now, here is the best part, it is made for the situations when users either can’t download applications, because of computer restrictions, or don’t want to download applications. Every thing is hosted on the website. This works out really well for students. I started using the site because when I am on the school computers in the computer lab, the applications that can be downloaded are very limited and regulated. There is a pop out function, and it gives the IM client a normal and natural feel. The options are pretty limited with it though, but just as an IM service it works great. I have been using it for about a year now and have no serious complaints. I suggest that you go check it out and get back to me if you want to chat.

There is also a meebo me widget, if you look in the side bar of this blog you will see mine. Anytime it says I am on, you can contact me through meebo in real time.

All profanity has been somewhat censored in this post. Hopefully no one will be offended by what they read, remember half of this is not me.

So there is this chick, Julieeg81. A real raging moron. This girl is the poster child for why child predators exist on the internet. I doubt that if anyone met her in real life that they would find her interesting enough to even run over in their car. A true waste of human life. We are talking scum of the earth here.

Anyways, this is the true postings of this short bus rider. Any further developement will be added. Hopefully, this can either stand as a testament to why certain people shouldn’t be on the internet, or as an example as to why Julieeg81 should no longer be breathing.

It all started on March 3rd. With this question purposed on a blog entry of sorts…

“How can we be expected to teach children to learn how to read if they can’t even fit inside the building?”

Now, as many people who know me know that I am an avid movie watcher, but have no capacity for filling my head with worthless B movie quotes. So, I gave an honest answer. I talked about reading not being relative to kid and how they fit into classrooms. Apparently, any real discussion about this subject was thrown out the window due to lack of brain cells in the post’s author’s head.

So, soon after I get a message. It wasn’t immediately but pretty soon…

Mar 04 2007 08:36PM

I simply replied by saying that I have seen the movie but refuse to fill my head with quotes from movies. Something that I have already stated in the above paragraphs. Nothing bad, nothing offensive. Just a simple explanation of why I did not recognize this quote off the bat.

Of course, within a couple days I recieve another email…

I think that you could really be a great person to talk to about certain issues if you ever managed to pull the stick out from up your butt and get down off your high horse.

I don’t really understand why someone would go into a raging tailspin… Maybe it was her time of the month? Needless to say, I took this message as a call to arms. So, I did what any good computer nerd would do, I pointed out the obvious flaws in her speech pattern and made some very apparent observations of who she is due to the pissy message I recieved. I was rough, but I did not bring it to a boil. No cursing, no nothing. Oh, I also stated that if I had ran her off of the site, and maybe off the internet for good, I was happy about that. I was just being honest. Harsh? Probably. But honesty is not always nice.

So, this morning I check my messages. Guess who can’t get enough of me?

An honest opinion you are so stupid you need to go to that school for kids who cant read good, you are a stupid kabala reading mother fu**er who tries to ruin everyone elses good time, if i were you i would kill myself thats what i would do, so until next time eat sh*t and kill yourself .

I responded, and this was the most brutal and, well, warrented attack I had unleashed on this woman yet. I missed the opprotunity to officially put her down for using yet another Zoolander quote, but I am cool with that. Of course, my return message did include my queery as to why she pegged me as a, in her own words, “kabala reading mother fu**er”. Remember she was the first to bring it to cursing. And apart from repeating her, I have yet to curse. Anyways, I just wanted to put this out and see what others thought. I will update it, if I get a reply.

Oh, and if you would like to see this crazy moron with a mission, “To spread mediocrity to all nations!”, then here is the link for her page…

And one more thing, I recently checked her page and the “tag” in question has been removed. Hmm, makes me wonder if I was actually on to something… 

“‘Although analysts say price reductions would benefit PS3 sales, Sony isn’t likely to make any price cuts for at least another two years’, said Kimberly Otzman, a spokeswoman for Sony Computer Entertainment America.” Needless to say, the Xbox360 will probably be less than half price by then.

I don’t know how many of you listen to the Joey and Heather Morning Show on Wild 104.9HD (plug), but if you were listening this morning you would have heard a little (speculative) AI news. And young girl from OKC named Lori may or may not be making it into the top 24 on American Idol. Of course this comes as a severe spoiler because the taping of “Hollywood Week” just finished and will be aired this week.

This comes from a source that supposedly was one of the “OK Three” that made it to Hollywood. No one except close friends really know much about these three, due to the lack of showing them during the audition weeks. The “OK Three”, from the source, went down to San Antonio in a group of five from OKC and, if you can count here is the eureka part, two were left in the dust. Only time will tell to see if these rumors are true or not. I guess, we will just have to watch with open anticipation, if Idol does that kind of thing to you. For now, just be happy that you got the news here first, well second if you listen to J&HMS.

FACEBOOK.COM IS A BORING SITE!!!!

Facebook has gotten better. (edited Aug 27 20-07)

I found this article quiet a while ago, but for some reason, I never posted on it. So, here I am, posting.

Apparently, hot girls everywhere have broken out in an epidemic of outrageous perportions! Or, at least, that is what Nintendo wants you to believe. And to be quiet frank, I believe! I DO BELIEVE!! I wish there was more companies out there that understand the power of having hot girls using your product. I mean, look at the bar below…

Just some figures to “mull” over. I love that the PS3 hasn’t moved much! Anyways, here are the pictures I was talking about! If you click on the thumbnails the pics will move! Hooray! Movement!

So, I was scanning through the loads and loads of CES (Consumer’s Electronics Show) information and came across a little nugget…

Apparently, someone has learned that crack can get you high and is taking full advantage of the drug, because the PS3’s controller, you know the one that is the same as their last controller, except harder to hold and it has copied the motion sensor of the “wii-mote”? Their controller has been “…honored by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences with a Technology and Engineering Emmy.” Hmm… sounds like Sony may have thrown some money around to get their systems off the ground… 

What do you mean you don’t want to buy our new “brick”? (for understanding of reference see http://www.i4u.com/article7199.html)

What do you mean you don’t want to buy our new “brick”? We have an award winning remote! It is just like the one you loved on the PS2, except the sides are more slippery, and the only innovative feature is something we ripped off of Nintendo… Did I mention the Emmy?

What a shame. Truely.

Well, today at, approximately 12:00 CST, Steve Jobs (The dude that stole Apple from Wozniak) will be giving his key note speech from I-love-Apple-fest, I mean, Macworld. So, if anything big, i.e. “iPhone”, should come down the line, I will let you know.
