If you didn't stop, you could have passed Chile, South pole, then wrapped back around to Canada.

No, I don't mean widgets like Android. I've been on Android and iOS simultaneously since they've both been released, and while Android widgets are a step in the right direction, it still doesn't get the job done.

This is your blog, and you guys can do whatever the hell you want. But if I come to a tech blog named GIZMO(do), the last thing I could care about is some republished article about the SR-71 and it's pilot. There's thousands of mundane tech things you could be writing about, even if mundane, at least it's gizmo…

I fail to see how iOS 4 accomplishes any sort of multitasking. What's the definition of multitasking? being able to 2+ things at once. What's the definition of iOS4 multitasking? Being able to do 1 thing, but quickly swapping out between many 1 things as fast as possible. In other words, iOS4 doesn't do multitasking.…

amen brutha.

Awesome article. iOS definitely needs to play catchup. Last night, it took me 15 minutes to fill out a credit card application on my iPad that had about 14 fields, no joke. Between the keyboard disappearing after every text field (phone number itself was comprised of 3 individual text fields), and having to switch to…

If I recall correctly, Sony's were actually the first mainstream laptop manufacturer to use chiclet style keyboards. Also, I believe HP used edge to edge glass prior to the unibody Macbook Pro. The only real original design trait (albeit, a big one), is the aluminum unibody.

Dota ftw. Where my dota playas at...wut wut

This video was proven to be a hoax. It was actually a bunch of ants putting together a gecko from scratch, then played backwards.

Verizon used to (still does maybe?) have this little phone that was made specifically for young children. Didn't even have a number pad. Just a set of preset buttons for emergency calls, and calling pre-set numbers.

It's a miracle the 234923234387428390475283975283... Kids that lived before this particular one didn't just shrivel up and die from the dangers of not having a cell phone in 3rd grade!

Incredible Hulk : "Ebburry tyme I buy new Fone, It noo woorrkkk".

I wonder what would happen if you took a big water tank with fish and went zero gravity. Would they even notice?

If Starcraft is to Dune 2 , as Starfront is to Starcraft... starcraft would actually have been named DuneCraft, and instead of 3 different alien races, it would have been 3 varying families, and instead of mining minerals, they'd be mining oregano.

Super cameo technique.

Hardware quibblings aside, I think the whole thing is kind of poetic in a philosophical way. Whatever camp you're in Fanboi or anti Apple, you can't help but acknowledge that Apple is the new "Man", and the Xoom commercial isn't really untruthful.

the sad part was that the "internet" wasn't really all that osbscure in 1994. I was 15, and considered myslef "late to the scene", but was already online for a couple years using my free AOL hours CD collection.
