I write a humor blog and cartoons. I also like root beer, social media, technology and sour tasting things. Hit me up on Twitter, @afrojive
My Vista just flipped on me. Apparently it can't handle checking email and a Flickr upload at the same time. It was responding 1 minute after the action and the parsing was terrible. So I had to manually pull the cord. They say it's bad for the computer but I don't think you can mess up Vista and more than it already is. Who knew...

Great redesign by Yahoo. Quite anticipated but I never thought It could look so usable. Any thoughts?

The Friendfeed video on the homepage at Friendfeed.com is very convincing. It's a great service non the less.

My friends ask me where can we find you most on the web. I say Friendfeed and Twitter. And just like Robert Scoble I hate voicemail. Just email me!
@BobVilacom We've been looking for one of those all summer! Thanks!

Unless Microsoft is planning a game changer with the Pocket PC [which I highly doubt] Apple must find a way to keep their iPhone on top of Google's Android. Regarded as the 'iPhone's ugly sister' I still think the Android has much hidden potential [one NOT being the design.]

Getting up to date with email. Just recently flipped over to Gmail after unresolved issues with my past provider.
I think I'm going to go for a bike ride, need some fresh air. Not often will you here a geek say that.
This is why I love FriendFeed's new real-time API: http://www.techcrunch.com/2009... And also why I think Twitter needs to catch on.
