An "iPod" icon? Could they at least have illustrated a story about the new iPad with the most recent model??

You're not the only one to think this.

I'm surprised programmers aren't on the list, what with their culture of unpaid overtime, Mountain Dew, and 30-plus hour coding binges. (For the record, I am not a programmer.)

Yes, it was driving me crazy, and people were complaining throughout the night on Twitter. Someone dropped the ball bad at the telecast. What I couldn't believe is that they weren't able to fix it over the whole three hours of the broadcast!!

Except this isn't exactly a Learjet, it's a computer. A nice computer, but still. And it wasn't always this way. Henry Ford famously paid his workers enough that they could own the cars they produced. And Henry Ford is not known for being a humanitarian. It's just that providing a living wage wasn't always such a…

I dunno. He does tend to turn into an evolutionary psychologist any time the subject of men versus women's roles in society comes up. Strange for a guy who probably thinks the planet's 6000 years old.

Well there was that ST:NG where everyone got addicted (literally!) to a mindless computer game. Of course it was part of a nefarious plot to enslave the whole ship by an alien enemy... but well that's not that far off from Angry Birds, right?

Good gravy, can you imagine the uproar if they were to introduce ads into our kids books? Many schools won't even allow vending machines.

One word: teenagers.

Yeah, you may have a point but why pick on poor Flickr? Google has a snowflake Easter egg (heck, 'Easter egg' is a more Christian term than lights and snow), as does the Roku home screen and dozens of other sites and apps across the web. Christmas saturation is everywhere; I hardly think Flikr is the worst culprit.

Not when they're fighting she's not.

Sasha is clearly indulging dad's "you're not too old to sit on your father's lap" shtick for the last time. That smile looks a tad forced.

Yeah, the rest of the country's really going to love an all-New Englander ticket. Way to balance out your campaign, Mittens.

I think almost every actor and celebrity who goes on talk shows has a predetermined "shtick," even if it's just an amusing story they want to tell. It's just that with comedians everyone's already heard the it before since they perform these stories as their profession.

Great, this makes those of us who did gain a bunch of weight in college feel even worse...

Maybe they were misinformed because half the people at the DMV don't have a clue about what they're doing? In my experience, no one ever tells you the same thing and their requirements for almost every tiny bit of paperwork seems to shift endlessly. Also, who you get to talk to makes a huge difference. Same goes for…

Isn't this Google's "strategy"? The idea that we won't run programs in the future because everything will be online? Isn't the Google Netbook basically a wrapper for Chrome and Google web services? Why would they alter their philosophy for an app?

On the other hand, he needs to work on his laugh. It's not so much "diabolical" as it is "unhinged doofus."

Um... Henry Ford wasn't exactly a moral exemplar... guy did not like Jews. [en.wikipedia.org]

Yeah, I was actually thinking about how everything is starting to look like a middle-aged man's den. For about a minute I wondered if Apple might consider themes — how many soccer moms or, more to the point, their teenage sons and daughters, want to use a calendar that looks like it was bought at the discount rack of…
