Ok, I KNOW THE iPHONE IS COMING OUT!!! So please stop telling me!


Is it just me, or is that all there is on tech blogs?

Ok - I got that out. I’m good now.

Web Game - PLANned

PLANned is a simple geometric thinking game. Players click on a box to make it expand while trying to make all the boxes connect. The catch is, once two boxes connect, they cannot move, and boxes stop expanding at a certain point, and you can’t make one box expand two times in a row.

It may sound like a boreing game - but don’t be deceived! This thinking game is quite challenging and can be quite fun.

Give it a whirl and let us know how well you did!

Pranks for the Computer World

At Community Bible Church - San Antonio, TX, Steve Crawford and Kyle Isenhower are notorious for pulling pranks on their co-worker Ed Ybarra. Back in March, Steve compiled a list of all the pranks they pulled on poor Ed.

Featuring pranks like:

  • The Wet Seat of Doom
  • The Frozen Keys of Doom
  • The Projectiles of Doom
  • The Hanging Office Chair of Doom
  • and many others!
  • Check it out!
    Even though the post is long for your average blog post, read it! Its worth it!


    Note: These pranks are perfect for use in a technology focused work envorment - but be sure they’re done in good humor, and in the right setting.

    Bugs in the New Safari 3 beta

    On June 11*, Apple released Safari 3 for Mac and Windows in it’s beta version - so what’s the deal?

    Well, apparently there are a few bugs with the program and now Safari 3 is getting bashed.

    I must point out one thing.

    Safari 3 is in it’s BETA version.

    Aren’t beta’s virtually supposed to have bugs? If they didn’t, they wouldn’t be betas! They’d be the full version!

    Granted, Apple shouldn’t have released it with (apparently) so many bugs - but since when has Apple released full version programs that are riddled with bugs? So pipe down - Leopard isn’t coming out untill October*. Apple will get the bugs worked out.


    NOTE: As of 6.14.07 - Safari 3.0.1 for Windows is out that (supposedly) fixes the ‘command injection vunerability’ error. [Mac Rumors]
