Goodbye Tumblr & Wordpress.
Today I am shutting down auto posting to my Tumblr and Wordpress account. After almost one year of outoposting to multiplensites I haven found that this is no longer necessary. One of the reasons is thatbi like where Posterous is headed, I also like that I am not tied in into Posterous. So if I ever had to pack up and leave then I will not have any problems taking my data with me. So for those...
App Store, Hacked.
via 9to5mac.com Well this was bound to happen. As Apple products become more popular, hackers will realize that there is a huge amount of money to be made. Hopefully this will get sorted out soon. BTW happy 4th of July! Posted via email from Techcoholic | Comment »

My Biased Opinion. Stop Using Twitpic.
via techcrunch.com When I recommend something is because I have used it, it also means that it is something that I really like. Usually I reserve my opinions when I am asked about something that I have not used or have little experience in. With that said, it really infuriates me when you have companies like Twitpic asking like this. I started using Posterous about 1 year ago, it was my last...

9to5Mac Really?
via 9to5Apologies.com What do I think? Im skipping this iPhone. The reason why I am doing that is because it is indeed a design flaw. The Glass on the new phone goes all the way to the edge. There is no protection like the prior iphones where the glass is recesses in. The weakest point of that glass piece is the corner. We pay a Apple premium because we expect good quality. We expect a...

Apple Quality Control Goes Down The Tubes
via 9to5mac.com Seems like Apple is having some serious issues with quality control. This is unacceptable and is unlike Apple. I personally believe that Apple is starting to sacrifice quality so they can make profit with high sells. For shareholders this is good =) for consumers this means there is hell to pay for being a early adopter. Posted via email from Techcoholic | Comment »...

iPhone 4 Glass Issues: My Take.
Some people seem to have problems griping their new iPhone 4, I guess the excitement is to much to bear so they end up dropping their brand new phone. One thing you will learn with time is that Apple customers are very critical about flaws in their product, and rightfully so. After all we are paying a premium aka”Apple Tax”. So when people find out that something is not performing up...

Steve Jobs to iPhone 4 Owners: Stop Holding the...
via mashable.com Now you see what I meant when I said yesterday that I knew the reason why Apple decided to start selling iPhone Cases. I honestly believe that Apple knew this was going to happen, this is why they decided to make the cases themselves. The iPhone 4 is going to be the first phone that requires a case for it to work properly. Apple is going to make a killing selling these babies at...

iPhone 4 Reception Issue While Holding the Phone?
This is not good. Seems like this problem is not widespread but it certainly is enough to make it to the first page of MacRumors. After reading this report I realized why Apple decided to start selling bumpers for the iPhone 4. Now imagine me with my crappy AT&T reception at my house plus the iPhone 4. This my friends is why I do not purchase things when they first come out. You are nothing...

Some iPhone 4s Experiencing Display Discoloration?
via macrumors.com Ok so does this mean that the retina display has cataracts? I know I know bad joke… But who said I was a comedian anyway? Here is to hoping that this is not a common problem. It would suck if you have been waiting this long only to get a defective iPhone. Posted via email from Techcoholic | Comment »

Walt Mossberg's iPhone 4 Review.
Straight to the point. Just as with its predecessors, I can’t recommend this new iPhone for voice calling for people who experience poor AT&T reception, unless they are willing to carry a second phone on a network that works better for them. For everyone else, however, I’d say that Apple has built a beautiful smartphone that works well, adds impressive new features and is still,...

WTF?? This Is Why Blogs Get No Respect.
First things first, lets make one thing clear, I hate AT&T. Their service is crap @ my house, and it is overpriced beyond belief. With that said when I see a post like this one, I sometimes understand why some people have come to despise bloggers. This article talks about how AT&T is supposedly ripping you off by charging data usage via microcell against your monthly cap. But wait…...

AT&T has had a rough day. First there was the massive system failure during the iPhone 4 pre-orders. Then it was revealed that private customer data may have been exposed during the fiasco. So maybe we should give them a break, right? Nah. As you may have heard, TechCrunch recently moved into a new office. It’s a great spot in San Francisco; we love it. That said, it happens to reside on...

Hi My Name Is Suckerberg And I Hate The iPhone

I hate the iPhone cause the battery sucks just like Twitter……………… This guy is what I call a Douchenerd, the combination of Nerd + Douche-bag. Eventually his arrogant attitude will result in the demise of Facebook. Hey...

The Future Of iOS
On my WOW…. Just WOW post earlier this week I talked about how Apple will be using their newly named OS in new products. So I would like to elaborate a bit more on this statement. The fact that Apple decided to rename the OS should not come as a surprise. All Apple is doing here is letting people know that iOS is not just a phone OS. iOS plus A4 means that Apple has the perfect platform...

Why Is AT&T Suddenly So Generous?
via gizmodo.com Hmm… I kind of agree with this analysis. I find it hard to believe that AT&T is doing this to please their “Loyal iPhone” customers. I call Bullshit on that one….. Posted via web from Techcoholic | Comment »
WOW.... Just WOW.
Apple yet again delivers a fine solid product. I’m not going to list all the details, that’s what other sites do for a living. Instead im going to give you my honest humble opinion. Desing: I’m not a big fan of the aesthetics, it looks a bit to box like. What I do love is that they have built what looks like to be a very durable, well laid out device. I love the built...
Apple Secrecy Over?
Who remembers 1998, when Steve Jobs unveiled the first iMac. Nobody in the Audience knew what was coming. Nobody in the press knew what to expect. It all was a secret until the main himself unveiled it. This has always been the way Apple announced their products. It is a staple of the Apple culture, but is it coming to an end? It seems like it is getting harder and harder for Apple to keep...

Plank That Grill
One of my favorite grilling technique involves the use of cedar planks. They add a whole new dimension of flavor while locking in the natural juices of seafood and meats. For this occasion I grilled 2 Salmon steaks and accompanied them with sweet mashed potatoes. Dry rubs are better for planked salmon but instead I decided to use a thick wet rub to accentuate the salmon + cedar combination. My...

Goodbye Lala
Man this sucks….. Music Streaming site Lala was one of my favorite music sites to date. It gave me the flexibility of having my music library available for me to access from anywhere. One of my favorite features Lala offered was the ability to purchase websongs for 10 cents. By purchasing a websong you basically pay for the right to stream that song as much as you wish while you where...

Thoughts on Flash
Apple has a long relationship with Adobe. In fact, we met Adobe’s founders when they were in their proverbial garage. Apple was their first big customer, adopting their Postscript language for our new Laserwriter printer. Apple invested in Adobe and owned around 20% of the company for many years. The two companies worked closely together to pioneer desktop publishing and there were...
