Has anyone made the upgrade to wireless N? Was it worth it?

Love the suggestion about watching Hoarders first! It's so true. Clean House is a good one to watch too, because you can probably relate to it a little better.

No one ever taught me to cook, so tips like this are news to me. I'm self taught and somehow missed out on this!

@jeremiah89: I used a netbook my last year in school and hated it. I couldn't seem to adapt to the small screen and keyboard. I'd much rather carry around a heavier laptop.

If your laptop is toast and you recently purchased it, you might also want to look into your credit card benefits. American Express has purchase protection for 90 days after a purchase, and it covers stolen goods and accidental damage.

I feel a little dumb because I never thought to do it this way! I despise putting on my duvet cover because it takes me a good 10 minutes and I always end up crawling into the thing to tuck in the corners. #annoyances

I use the iDisk app for the same purpose. I used Apple's Backup app to set up automatic backups to my iDisk, so all my important files are easily accessible on my iPhone. This includes all my recipe PDFs.

$29, but I did decide to buy a 1TB external hard drive to make it easier for me to do a clean install. However, I'm using Amex rewards to get a dell gift card so it's still free to me.

I may be alone on this, but I very rarely cracked open my books in college. I would have loved to have all my books right on my iPhone for the occasions that I needed to look at the book. But for serious reading, nothing beats a book.

Great idea, but I think many homeowners associations would throw a fit!

Oddly enough, I've had iPhones for 2 years now and only just now decided to jailbreak my GS. I'm enjoying the themes, 5 icon dock, and SBSettings. I could easily live without the jailbreak, but it's pretty fun.

I'm surprised no one has suggested to just buy an apple aluminum keyboard. I've had mine for almost a couple years and all I ever have to do is clean it with a wet paper towel. The keys don't really allow for gunk and pet hair and crumbs to fall in.

I recently bought a microfiber couch and loveseat and my cat has absolutely no interest in scratching it. I guess the fabric is unappealing to him. He's used many couches as scratching posts in the past, but not this one. He walks straight to his scratching post next to the couch (one of these: [www.petsmart.com])…

@Michael Mantis: There's much speculation about whether or not there will be a new iPhone coming out this summer. The 3.0 update will be available for the iPhone 3G regardless so you have nothing to worry about.

I only buy chicken breast when it's on sale for $1.99/lb. I also buy toilet paper, paper towels, and trash bags in bulk since we go through so much of that. I get wet cat food in bulk when it's on sale for $.40/can and get cat litter in bulk as well.

IE6 is default, but IE7 is slowly being rolled out to some users. I have Firefox but I believe they'll only give it to developers.

This is exactly why I cook so much. I can make an equally delicious burger, sandwich, shake, or salad with all natural ingredients and a quarter of the calories and fat and far less sodium. In fact, I don't think I could make such caloric foods even if I wanted to. It really makes you wonder what they put in these…

My employer blocks logmein, VPN, and ssh. It's annoying, but thankfully they're cool enough not to block facebook, twitter, or google reader. :)

These statistics are surprising to me. I make a list and usually end up with only 1 or 2 extra items in my cart that I wasn't originally planning on buying.
