More Tensions? Oh Perfect! No Really, Fan-spanking-tastic


In case you've been living under a rock recently (this post is a little late) the U.S. recently accused Iran of trying to blow a building up in the States.  Sounds reasonable right? Well.. no.  Turns out our 'evidence' was the fact that the two bombers were from Iran.  Even though they had been living here for years, and one was even a legal citizen, this didn't stop the government from accusing Iran of hatching a plot to kill Americans.

Normally we don't like to bash the government.. but.. really?? REALLY? Are you trying to start a nuclear war?    At least wait until technology has advanced enough for us to take refuge on Mars while our planet is blown to tiny pieces.  Thanks.

Steve Jobs 1955-2011


Steve Jobs, mastermind and co-founder of Apple, died today at the age of 56.  Apple's Homepage has become the above image, and it features a short homage to the late genius.


"Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being," the text read. "Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple."

Rest in peace.

A New iPhone?! Oh My God.. Oh My God!!

Yes, it's true.  Another iPhone has finally been announced.  However, it's not what most of us were expecting.  The majority of consumers were under the impression that we would be getting a completely redesigned iPhone that hardly looked anything like its ancestors.  Well, no.

It looks almost exactly like the iPhone 4, but with the upcoming update to iOS 5 (available for free to iPhones and iPods 3GS and later), it will be vastly different, and as usual, new and exciting.  (While a huge factor of the iPhone 4s is the new software, it does feature better hardware such as an 8 megapixel camera, and a dual core A5 chip.)
