Remember back when I was debating Wayfinder Access vs Mobile Geo? Well, Wayfinder Access is no more. Boohoo, boohoohoohoohoo. It appears that Wayfinder Access is being bought, and shut down. There are some licenses left, and they *say* they will continue to receive support, so if you were sitting on the fense and think you …

Goog411! How Cool!
I got a note from our good buddy Anton, who we’ve talked about on here before, about a free service that I think everybody in Canada and the States should have handy. It is Google 411 for the phone! Yes, Google does it again. I have always been pissed off at how much cellphone companies …
Two Deadly Words: "How Much?"
I’m still leaning towards getting the Nokia N86, and I talked to my brother, and he thought I was making a well-thought-out decision, so yea woo, he’s not mad or wondering what’s wrong with me or something. I seriously didn’t think he’d be that mad, I just thought he might be a tad perplexed about …
iSad
So today I went out to the mall to check out some phones. Remember that Christmas present my brother offered to get me? Well, I wanted to play with a couple of phones. There was the iPhone, and I’ve been debating getting a Nokia N86 because that phone can handle KNFB Reader, which I have …
Holly Update
Well shit. I just went to Holly’s blog and it looks like the tumour’s gotta come out. January 11, whether or not she has the money for the ABI, the surgery to remove the tumour has to happen. It’s pressing on her brain stem and all kinds of not cool stuff. If I understand it …

Just What All Kids Need: A Robotic Hamster
Here’s another example of a story I saw before I left, but didn’t have the brains to deal with it in the way I wanted to. The story is about Target firing employees for buying Zhu Zhu Pets. Yeah, target can be dickheads. But what the story made me do was wonder why the Zhu …

For Those Who Don’t Do Oggs.
I figured I’d post this here. For anyone who couldn’t open the White Christmas file because it was an ogg, and for anyone who couldn’t play the synth carol because they were all oggs, I’ve converted them to mp3’s. Here’s White Christmas and the Synth Carol in mp3. Enjoy.
Happy New Year!
Well holy crap, it’s 2010. How about we start the year off with one last song from the synths. So, without further delay, I give you Auld Lang Syne. If I had been thinking, I would have done this right at midnight, but I didn’t, so…here it is.
A Christmas Present From The VC
I said we had a little present for you guys, and boy do we. How about a little synth Christmas concert? Let’s start off with some classical sort of stuff. Here’s Ding Dong Merrily On High, The Holly and the Ivy and The Christmas Canon. Who knew a synth could sound so beautiful? Now that …
