    Pushing Daisies: A Wonderful Treat 

    I just finished watching the pilot of a new ABC show called Pushing Daisies, and I have to say that I’m trying very hard not to gush about it.

    Pushing Daisies has a very interesting plot in that lead character Ned, played by Lee Pace, can bring the dead back to life. When he touches a corpse, the person springs to life. When he touches them again, they go back to being dead. There is a caviate however. If he leaves a formerly-dead person alive more than 60 seconds, someone in their proximity dies instead. Quite the double-edged sword, that.

      That does sound interesting. I will have to check it out, I am very picky when it comes to TV, it takes something really good to get into it, so if it keeps me, then it definitely is something special. If it doesn’t, that doesn’t mean its bad, it just means it didn’t capture me. It sounds like an interesting plot though. I hadn’t even heard of it until your discussion.

      we made doody watch the second episode heheh
      definitely is awesome
      i’m not sure if it will live up to ‘dead like me’ in my eyes but we’ll just wait and see (i sure do like the trend of pretty gals with guys names – george and chuck haha)

    • euicho 8:38 am on 10/18/2007 Permalink

      Yeah I don’t think anything will live up to Dead Like Me, but it’s a nice standard to hold other shows to. And I totally didn’t pick up on the George/Chuck thing, very good point heheh.

    • Jesse 1:00 pm on 10/18/2007 Permalink

      I liked the comical style of this show quite a bit. I miss George’s potty mouth and cynical view of reality, being the bhudist that I am.

    Invisible Monsters
    by: Chuck Palahniuk

    Review by: Thomas Gagnon

    I’ve been out of my comfort zone before, but I’ve never been wrenched from my comfort zone at 3am with a bag over my head, and tossed into a blender with scraps of a story whizzing before my eyes, catching glimpses as I fight to get my footing, yet loving every second of it. This is the work of Chuck Palahniuk. This is what it feels like to read Invisible Monsters.

    I just came across a great little utility today, and am amazed I’ve not heard about it before now. Its called TCP Optimizer, and it’s greatly boosted my download speeds.

      You did it again! Just like the TiddlyWiki and Nokia 770 reviews, your iPhone review is head and shoulders above the professional reviews I’ve read.

      You might consider seeing if you can get paid for writing reviews…

    • euicho 2:24 am on 1/10/2007 Permalink

      Thank you! I definitely wouldn’t mind writing fof a living :)

    • Anon 2:40 am on 1/10/2007 Permalink

      This is just an article that licks Apple.

    • euicho 10:24 am on 1/10/2007 Permalink

      Meh, I never said I’m non-biased, however thanks for the criticism. I’ll try to better highlight the negative points I did perceive :)

    • Doody 3:46 pm on 1/10/2007 Permalink

      It is purty though.

    Impressions of the Nokia 770 

    Introducing: The Internet Tablet

    nokia 770
     

    the Nokia 770 is an “internet tablet”. I know this is a new term to most of you, but it comes to us by way of two more familiar words: Internet (as in websites, e-mail, rss, and IM), and Tablet (as in a portable computer built into a screen). Put ‘em together, and the definition is exactly what you’d think: A small, portable computer, built into a screen, that is meant to access the web!

    It looks like a PDA, but it’s not. PDAs handle contacts, calendars, and to-dos. This puppy’s all about the Net with some bonuses on the side (we’ll get to those later). It’s main applications are accessing webpages, reading rss feeds, and checking email. Before we get too into things, I have to tell you the coolest part…

      Wow, that thing seems really sweet.

      And I must say that was one of the most in-depth and complete posts I have ever seen in a blog on any electronic device.

    • euicho 9:33 am on 4/27/2006 Permalink

      Why thankya Doody! I really love mine. I use it constantly.

    • Jesse 1:46 pm on 4/27/2006 Permalink

    • Jesse 10:24 pm on 4/29/2006 Permalink

      I’m glad I made someone cry today.

    • Dad 11:22 am on 5/23/2006 Permalink

      Nice post Tom. I agree with Dood, a really in-depth post although I admit I only understood about 1/2 half of what you were talking about. hahaha
      take care.love you

    TiddlyWiki 

    I just realized that in my absence I never posted about TiddlyWiki!

    “What the heck is a TiddlyWiki,” you ask? Well duh! Its a reusable non-linear personal web notebook.

      A masterful and lucid explaination of a difficult concept. Easily the best TiddlyWiki description I’ve ever seen.

    • euicho 7:41 pm on 8/5/2005 Permalink

      Wow, thanks! I had yet to read a good explaination since it is such an alien concept to grasp at first.

    • Mike Flynn 1:39 am on 9/7/2006 Permalink

      Here is my approach when explaining something like this. Rather than first describe the functions and capabilities of what you are providing it is better to help orient the reader by explaining “why” this specific “thing” was created. What did you not like about the current way to do something? How does providing what you have provided improve what was there before? Users can grasp what you have provided if they see the mental process you went through to create this new “thing”.

      I hope that helps…

    • euicho 8:20 am on 9/7/2006 Permalink

      Thanks, I’ll definately keep that in mind in future articles.

    • Karis 3:58 pm on 10/21/2006 Permalink
