I’ve had my hands full here at ISPCON Fall 2006, so I’m very glad that George has got my back over at Global Nerdy, where he’s been posting a storm of insightful articles…

Microsoft’s Zune MP3 Player

Zune “Big, Chunky, Blocky, Rushed, Incomplete, Barren, Derivative”: “Seriously, do you want your stuff being sold as ‘good for you in the long run?’ That’s the way you sell cod liver oil, not a digital music player.”

Microsoft Dances to Universal Music’s Shakedown Tune; Will Pay Uni a Buck a Zune: “I woke up to some sad news today: Microsoft, once the most feared company in the world, is a total wuss.”

Apple

Apple Ditching the Mac, Keeping the PC: “No, Apple’s not licensing Mac OS X to Dell, they’re getting rid of the ‘Mac guy’ in their commercials.”

MacBooks Now Sport Intel Core 2 Duo: “So, faster, more RAM, more storage. Not a bad incremental update.”

Gliffy

Gliffy: “Slick, free, basic drawing tool a la Visio. Online and done in Flash. If you need to bang out a flowchart, or some basic UML, this is a pretty nifty option.”
