VOTE: Google Shopping List

Excellent guide, and sure to be helpful on Friday!

Yet again, Lifehacker finds a utility that I never knew I wanted. Now, of course, it's an instant download! #wallpaper

Did you guys not read the post?

I guess I'll go with TweetDeck. It's my second favorite behind Twhirl, but that one didn't make the list.

I have an iPod touch, so I chose the dedicated media player option even though this thing does so much more. I don't want to pay expensive phone plans; I'll keep my LG EnV and do everything else on the iTouch. I don't have a very big music collection to begin with, so I'm finding the iPod perfectly suited for my…

This explains a lot. I get up at 6:30 a.m. for school every weekday and I'm usually really tired by 8 p.m. I always wondered why that was. This seems to make sense.

I love OpenDNS. Not only is it easy to use, but it provides a great feature set that can be implemented with minimal effort.

I jumped on the "20" Acer X203Hbd Widescreen LCD Monitor for $100 + Free Shipping" deal. Looks like a great product, and what a deal!

The 19" Dell Widescreen monitor looks like it's at $109 now. Seems like every time I click a LH link to a monitor sale, the price goes up by the time I get to the page.

If I had a netbook, I would definitely put Windows 7 on it. As it is, I have 7 on two 2005 Pentium 4 Dells and it's working really well.

Adam and Kevin's posts inspired me to snap shots of my own laptop bag gear. While most of my gear is in my backpack when I'm on the go, I do keep a variety of cables and gadgets in the laptop bag for easy access. Click here to see my laptop bag Flickr set.
