…about that iPad

February 16, 2010 Dan No Comments

I’ve collected a number of different iPhone tips in the last few months, from keyboard shortcuts to application reviews. I’ve also been keeping track of news about the iPad since it was announced.

I’m not buying it.

Don’t get me wrong. It’d be cool to have one. It’s like a big iPod Touch, and who doesn’t like their Touch? But I don’t see it as breaking any new ground in the tablet market, a market that has yet to see its time come. I think Apple dropped the ball on this one.

The iPad should have been to video what the iPod was to music. That’s the way to pave a new market. Instead, it’s just a bigger Touch. And while bigger is often better, a bigger iPod Touch is just an iPod that won’t fit in your pocket. Great for web browsing on the couch, but you aren’t lugging it everywhere you go.

Is News Better When It’s Naked?

I recently wrote about Naked News, a very NSFW website where the news casters strip while reading the news, sports, weather, etc. And I have to admit, the idea of seeing boobies does make some of the news a bit easier to take. It also makes me wonder what other areas of our life could be improved through nudity. Maybe if we required all lawyers to be hotties with D-cups and practice their law in the buff we’d all be much happier when we got that summons to jury duty in the mail?

Speaking of funny, I compiled some Jim Gaffigan videos and some banned Super Bowl commercials. I need to work on some videos of Zach Galifianakis. We watched his stand up routine the other night and that guy is hilarious.
