I was a Flickr Pro user for quite a while, but my membership had lapsed back in August. This is a nice opportunity to get back in there, especially since I'm thinking of starting a new photo project for 2013.

Just happy to see that Skitch is still getting love after the Evernote acquisition.

I've been a fan of Hipstamatic since before Instagram hit the scene. Love the quality and variety, and their HipstaPrint service turns out great square-print photos in a variety of sizes.

Nope, they're both Carol — first as Ms. Marvel (in black, with the long hair), then as Captain Marvel (in red, blue and yellow, with the short hair). And both are awesome.

An incandescent bulb, left alone on a deserted highway with no way to get home?

Apple Maps was definitely not ready for primetime, but this announcement is just as much a win for Apple as it is for Google. Apple originally wanted Google's turn-by-turn navigation on the iPhone, and Google refused. Now look at where we are: Google Maps, with turn-by-turn, on the iPhone (and a more-feature-filled…

I'm a big Apple fan, but having a monitor that I can use to switch between my MacBook Pro and my PC desktop at home (via a DVI switcher) means the Apple display is out of the running, Plus, the Dell UltraSharp line is great — I'm sitting here right now at work with a Dell 30" and a Dell 24" attached to my MBP. Three…

Happens far too often. That's why I switched to getting bowls a while back: all the goodness, none of the structural integrity problems.

I've always been a fan of Dell's monitors. I use a UltraSharp 27" and an UltraSharp 24" at work, attached to my MacBook Pro. Works like a dream.

What I'm saying is that all these "adventures", ultimately, have zero effect on my Shepard. They won't change the course of her fight against the Reapers, won't help her survive her final encounter, won't improve her chances to reunite with her team or the love of her life. None of these.

Okay, that made me laugh out loud. Thanks for that. But aren't we talking about Timbaland Bandersnatch?

+1 for me, too. I know I end up dead (or, at best, gasping for breath back on Earth somehow), so what's the point?

I just got my Pogo Connect a couple weeks ago. There seems to be a slight delay as you start to draw and press, but that could be as much an issue with the app (Paper) as the stylus. Looking forward to more apps supporting these new stylii.

"Measure of a Man" is a great episode, but the premise has always irked me. Data was found and reactivated by Starfleet personnel, and, of his own accord, *willingly chose* to attend Starfleet Academy. If this somehow allows a Starfleet engineer to disassemble him just to see how he works, I suppose that means that…

Agreed. :-)

Given that the Scarlet Witch's "witchcraft" is really the mutant ability to manipulate probability, I think the choice is a subtle, witty one.

Agreed. How could this "Honey Bun" contraption make the list, while Ding Dongs are left off?! I call bakery blasphemy.

No, Christmas is the other way. Given their current trajectory, it's Halloween they'll be swallowing up in their Black Friday fervor. "Your Home for Cheap Plastic Crap" never disappoints.

After feeling a little sloggy for the past couple of episodes (minus Etta's death), this one really felt like we're back on the right track. Two things I'd love to see that would really leave me smiling after the series ends:

All I need is a piece of Swiss cheese, some chalk... and a beard.
