It’s been awhile since I last posted an article. Blame it on a busy December. Before I begin my post, please allow me to greet everyone reading this a very happy holidays.
I’ve had a few free days and had the chance to just play around with Google Chrome for Mac. I know that it’s been released for a few weeks now but I felt I needed to share my thoughts on it because the web browser is such an essential tool in the modern world of computing. I can’t imagine using a computer without having to open up my web …read more

One of the apps that in my opinion is a real must have is 1Password. I’ve been using 2.0 for quite awhile and I’m not sure how I can live with out it. With all the login information that I have to remember, this app is really a great way of keeping tabs at the same time adding a layer of security to your accounts. Gone are the days of having one password for all of your login accounts.
That being said, Agile Web Solutions, the maker of 1Password recently launched the much awaited version 3 of 1Password. The new versions …read more

With over 100 teams in major college football, I can’t follow them all. That’s why most of the posts you’ll read here deal with teams from BCS conferences or teams in the top 25.
But today, I wanted to take a moment to congratulate The Temple Owls. They had a rough start at the beginning of the season, losing to Villanova and Penn State, but since then, they’ve won six games in a row, keeping them undefeated in the MAC.
That means that Temple is bowl-eligible for the first time since 1990. That’s a long time to suck. Their next four games …read more

I have posted a number of Windows clipboard manager and have not posted any for MAC. I am not a MAC user, but I’d still want to have you MAC guys an option to consider.

The CopyPaste Pro is said to be the Time Machine for the Clipboard. The default MAC copy paste only allows 1 clipboard (at least as what their product site says); again, I am not a MAC user.
The highlight features include:
1. Multiple Clips
2. Edit Clips
3. Archives
4. History
5. Multiple Views
6. Clip Tools
7. Quick Clips

We recently got clobbered by a Typhoon over here in Manila. It was the worst rainfall we’ve had in over 40 years. A lot of people lost their homes and things. People are saying that this is caused by climate change. I’m starting to agree because typically the end of September should have this much rain and yet in the span of 6 hours we’ve had a month’s worth of rain.
This brings me to the topic of my post today. I’m happy about the fact that Apple has shown a lot of responsibility towards the environment and going green. As …read more

It’s the rumor that won’t die.
For almost five years, it’s been believed that Apple is working on a touchscreen tablet PC, thanks to patents filed by the company for just such a device dating back to 2004 and 2005. Rumors had swirled since long before those dates, though, that Steve Jobs was planning to unleash the first Mac Tablet in the near future.

Fast forward to 2009, and in the wake of the iPhone and iPod Touch, which could be considered small scale versions of that same patented device, and we’re still waiting for the iTablet to appear. We now know …read more

Tom Yager of InfoWorld is all praises for the new 15″ MacBook Pro. Well almost all praises. There are some minor flaws in an otherwise great notebook.
Quoting from his article
The 15-inch MacBook Pro is the best of the tier-one commercial notebooks, full stop. My two complaints — that the SD card sticks out of its slot and the USB ports remain too close together — are overshadowed by the new display, seven-hour battery, faster CPU, and the fact that there is an SD card slot. There are cheaper notebooks, but I’d challenge you to find one that’s faster, quieter, and …read more

The new MacBook Pros now all come with sealed batteries. This was just once the territory of the mighty 17 inch model. Not anymore. The recent refresh brought that technology to its smaller siblings, the 15 inch and the recent addition to the MacBook Pro line-up the 13 inch.
According to Walt Mossberg who had the chance to test both the 13 and 15 inch MacBook Pro and put it through the paces of his own battery test, both laptops performed well. The 13 inch lasted a slighty below the 5 hour mark while the 15 inch was 21 minutes above …read more
