True, but I am up for a new phone pretty soon since I currently have the iPhone4. This will come into play when I choose to go with the "Next" iPhone or an Android Phone (or maybe WinMo!!!!)

That would be great...is there any chance Apple does not allow that app?

Losing Transit Directions is a huge blow for me. I have been with iPhone from the beginning and watched Android catch up and even surpass the iPhone is some regards. However, nothing has really been a big enough difference to totally uproot myself from my original OS...until now...if iPhone 5 launches with no decent

I don't know why having one of your baseball announcers be a huge homer is a bad thing. Obviously Hawk will never do play by play for a national broadcast, but if it is only sox fans watching, I'm sure they didn't care that it was silent. Sometimes broadcasters talk too much...

For those interested, check out the web page of the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat. They have a good explanation of the criteria for building height and building height rankings.

I'm assuming the genius you are referring to is the fact that this reporter thought to buy all that scotch to get us this picture...real man of genius...

Augusta National is a private club with only about 300 members (wikipedia!). It's members join by invitation only. Similar to a fraternity, sorority, or other private social club, there is no law requiring them to include everyone in their membership. That is what makes American better than Canada. Freedom.

There is nothing wrong with beer in cans, provided it is poured into an consumed from a glass. Cans can even be better by allowing less light to harm the subtle flavors in some beers. Plus an aluminum generally assumed to be a greener vessel than glass, since it is easier to recycle.

Yeah! And what is with all the posts about gadgets?!? Just too much sometimes...

200 pounds?!? Impossible!

Ketchup Fountain > Tebow?

You can see glass stiffeners acting as beams across the glass roof slab. Also, glass is used as structure often enough and is relatively strong. Thing glass stairs, or glass bridges. Plus in those cases the live load must be more like 100psf, where a flat roof in NYC is probably more like 25 or 30psf for snow.

The #1 question I have is if I do a clean install, will I lose all my Angry Birds Progress? That would be devastating.

But there are rumors that the iPhone 5 will cure cancer! And its supposed to be released this April! Look! Look at these grainy photos of parts from China!!!

zing!

OMG...if they made it so that you could get UP TO 3 STARS, people would become totally addicted to Gizmodo! They'd sit in the bathroom for hours just reading and commenting over and over again until they got that third star! Then they'd release Gizmodo seasons, and a Gizmodo partnership with Kung Fu Panda 4...oh

When I first read that they were putting pucks into the empty net, I pictured them firing the puck, like a shoot out. For some reason that didn't seem right. I am happy to see that they solemnly placed the pucks into the net. A very unique and surprisingly fitting memorial...

Can anyone compare and contrast Project 365 Pro and Photo 365. They are both 99cents and from their previews, they both look polished. Thanks!

Get the deep dish...everyone here eats it....just don't fall into the Gino's, Giordano's, or Uno's tourist traps. Find yourself a nice Lou Malnati's (there is a nice new one on Rush just south of Division), or make the trek up to Pequod's.

Love the Gmail Web App...I have replaced my native mail app in my bottom dock with the gmail web app. Plus, I sync my work email to my native mail app, so it's kinda nice to have a separation. It would suck to go into the native app to check gmail and see a bunch of messages from my job...
