Why I like a blog to be simple with out the flare.

Tuesday, April 8, 2008

Many of us have blogs, but others just over do it with widgets, adsence, wallpapers, games, polls, rotating pictures of friends, and of course more adsence. Now there is nothing wrong with this at all, we all do it but content is important as well. Just the other day I came across a blog that had been up for about a year and there were so many spinning hearts, smiley faces and pop-ups that I thought it was a MySpace profile on steroids. I guess that’s the best part of a blog, some people use it as a way to get a point across, others maybe just for the money, and some to just express there lives. Now I am not writer, but I knew when I started my blog I wanted it to be simple enough for a person to actually read it, not to go into a seizure and leave. I like a blog that is simple, but also is easy to navigate. Let us know what you look for in a blog..

New Facebook Chat coming this week!

With over 69 million active users, this social networking giant has yet another new addition to their empire. Facebook users always have had the chance to send messages in an email format back and forth. The only problem with this is getting a message across quickly. Facebook will now be releasing a real-time chat program, which enables users to chat it up with others around the US. The best part is that Facebook users will not need buddy lists, because they already have there friends added in the Facebook system. The chat program will be in a movable pop-up window, which will let the user multi task a little bit better.

The downside – Facebook users will Only be able to chat 1 on 1 with others. The user will be able to keep history of the chat or delete it for good, nothing will be stored permanently.

Patrick Thornton, who runs the blog, states "The Journalism Iconoclast," said since he can chat with his Gmail contacts in Gmail and Facebook friends on Facebook, he will have little need for AIM.
"Facebook is a platform that allows people to connect in much deeper and more visceral ways than a standalone IM client ever could," he said. "Why just talk to someone when you can experience them? That's what Facebook allows people to do."
Look for this new feature coming up this week!

Blackberry Komet - T-Mobile's New Secret Weapon!

Monday, April 7, 2008

Yes we found out about this just a few weeks ago when my Blackberry pearl (8100) decided not to work anymore. For whatever reason the speaker has gone out on it and in order to hear the person your talking to you need to put the loud speaker on. This lead me on to try and find out when T-Mobile’s Pearl 2 was going to ever launch.

But now that I have lost everyone’s interest in this post I will drop the specs for you. If you haven't heard yet from a forums or blogs yet T-Mobile will be introducing there new secret weapon, the Blackberry Komet! So my only question is, is this T-Mobile’s Pearl 2 or yet another Blackberry model to launch at a later date? I have heard roomer after roomer that the line of pearl 2’s would come to T-Mobile earlier this year. But still no go, maybe this is why they have been holding back.

APRIL 15th, 2008 is now the new rumored date as far as some Pearl 2 goes but we will see as that date approaches in the next week and a half. Will the Komet launch as soon as the 15th or just a pearl 2 (8120)? Since Verizon, Sprint, and US Cellular have had the Blackberry Pearl 2 (8130) for months now, you would think that by now the GSM carriers would play catch up. But as always the demand is there for the crackberry fans, but as far as the business side of things go, when will we see change?

$50,000+ Super Bowl XLII Tickets on eBay!!

Wednesday, January 30, 2008

How much do you think that a person would pay for Super Bowl XLII tickets? I personally have seen them going in upwards of $5,000 each, but it gets better. Have you checked eBay lately? Try $22,000 - $53,000+ for 4 tickets! And yes there are BIDS! Now the question isn’t would you pay this much for 4 tickets, but more or less if you had plenty of money, would you go? Seems like an obvious answer but not to some eBayers that have already lost auctions to “last second bidders”. Checkout the latest prices on eBay now for your Super Bowl XLII tickets!

A cat that eats with a Fork, Spoon, And Chopsticks Video!??

Once again just watching some videos on YouTube and I had accidently clicked on this video. It was labeled “Cat eats with a friggin fork!!” Alright so I was curious what the hell this was. Sure enough the damn cat is eating with a fork, spoon, and CHOPSTICKS? This lady that trained the cat considers it a “family secret” and that her and her husband are lonely together since the kids left. I consider the husband not putting out enough. Just watch the video. Seriously wtf is wrong with these people!

The 50" IO2 Heliodisplay! TV projected in Mid-Air with No screen!

Tuesday, January 29, 2008

What is the IO2 Heliodisplay? The IO2 Heliodisplay is a Crazy new technology that actually projects TV \ PC display in THIN AIR! No projector screen needed. Like is star wars where Rt-d2 projects a movie in mid air, this is the same concept.
http://www.io2technology.com/
best explains this awesome display best:

Attach any computer or DVD using a standard computer or video cable to the Heliodisplay system, and project video or images into mid-air. Various models are available ranging sizes from 30", 50" and 100" (diagonal) areas. The 'i" version allows for a "virtual" touch screen (new for December 2007). No special hardware or software is required to view images. The new versions also have an improved image, are smaller, lighter, and easier to use. The 30" Heliodisplay is now only 5.9" tall, and weighs 15lbs. The 50" and 100" are each only 10" tall and weigh 28lbs, and 68lbs respectively. All afford a wide range of flexibility and options. Installation is also available.

You can also find many videos of the projector in action at:

What to expect with T-Mobile's New Wi-Fi Service

T-Mobile is said to be launching their new Wi-Fi network soon. What does this mean for customers? Well when your out and about during you day on the phone your using up minutes, but with T-Mobiles new Wi-Fi enabled phones you will be able to talk for an unlimited amount of time while in a T-Mobile hotspot or at your home! Is this worth the claimed rate of $20\month? Let us know more, shoot us a comment now!

The Best Phone Ever?

Just because we are curious, in your opinion what is the best cell phone ever made? It can be old, new, or even not out yet. Send us your feedback! (All content welcome! We are ok with you listing your sites, stores, or other material other that ads.)

T-mobile Blackberry Pearl 2 (8120)

So as the rumor has it T-Mobile will be launching the Blackberry Pearl 2 on Feb. 18th! What color you ask? It Will be a Silver \ Grey color as seen in the picture.
I currently have the 8100 pearl with T-Mobile and I just cannot wait to get my hands on the new phone featuring Wi-Fi. But sadly this phone still will NOT feature a GPS antenna, which really has me steamed. Currently this “Top Secret” T-Mobile phone is a little bit delayed as US Cellular has already released their Blackberry 8130 (CDMA Version of the Pearl 2). The reason for this? Well just like with any company, they need to get out the old before getting in the new. The Blackberry 8100’s already have had a huge price drop so that they can get rid of them in time for the new pearl 2’s. Over all not much is being said about the features hidden inside the phone but one thing very noticeable were the enlarged send\end keys, a 2.0MP camera (which is now centered in the middle but still on the back), Loud Speaker moved to the center for added protection, and also the pearl seems to be slightly recessed inwards. Over all this, in my opinion, will be one of the best phones to hit the market early this year. So before your ready to sign that next 2yr contract, be sure to wait a few more weeks and check out the Blackberry Pearl 8120! Anything I missed? Leave us a comment! When you get your new Blackberry Pearl checkout www.zstorez.com for all your wireless phone accessory need! (HINT: Look below on this Blog for special coupon codes!!!!!)

Movie: Untraceable Movie Ratings Good or Bad?

Saturday, January 26, 2008

I just saw the new movie “Untraceable” that has just come out. I would have to say that it was a great movie. I was completely into it the entire time! I am still trying to figure out one of the parts though. A guy wanted to buy a rare piece of art work of some sort and he when to the killers house. He noticed the address and later then the kill got him. Then when the FBI watched the streaming web video the guy moved his mouth to say the address. When the cops showed up it was not the right house. So my question is how did that happen? Did the killer just move the guy? I don’t know? But either way I would have to tell everyone that is into high tech stuff to check this movie out. I would have to say the ending is pretty tite! Tell us what you think about the movie! Was is good or did is suck?

A sad day for a Ferrari owner!


So I was just browsing Google images and I come across this horrible picture of a idiot that drove a truck through a garage door and over a Ferrari parked inside. This just pisses me off! The guys like well I can’t afford another one so I’m looking at an s2k, or M3. I say well if the wife didn’t run over your $250,000 Ferrari you wouldn’t be looking at $20,000 cars.

My new 350Z is parked

Not much happening tonight! Right I’m looking out the window at my winter beater jeep 4x4. The truck is supposed to be red, but there is so many rust holes I don’t even think I could call it a truck (oh ad NO HEAT!). It has a black door on the driver’s side and the 4-wheel drive no longer works. Also it’s covered in about a foot of snow from today’s grand snow storm. Why am I writing about this $400 jeep sitting in the frozen driveway? Because I miss the car I drive in the summer. No I don’t drive my $400 beauty during the summer, though the bald tires might not slip as much then.
This past summer I had purchased a Red 2005 35th Anniversary Nissan 350Z with 6K miles on it from California. The car is awesome and I have been drooling over it ever since the day they came out. Sure I could have gone with an EVO or STI, but I had to go with a Z. I have even met plenty of STI owners that wish they had one. By now I have lost everyone’s attention because, know likes someone who brags about their sh-t all day….But I can since I have to drive this dumb jeep around. That what happens when you buy with your dreams in mind instead of your head. I’m not saying I can’t afford it, that’s quite opposite actually. The whole idea is that people need to understand to work hard now and play later. It seems I don’t have as much fun as I used to because I am Always coming up with new ideas on how to make an good income. Either way its cold out I can’t drive the Z, so I guess I will have to settle for my $400 junker, but it plows through snow. Its interesting how you can own something you don’t even want, but its completely necessary.

The casino

So right now I am sitting at the casino on my blackberry waiting for this annoying bingo game to finish up so that I can get the girlfriend out of here. Don't get me wrong she has won a few games in the past but I just don't see the whole idea behind it. I mean she sits with a few of her girl friends while I'm down dropping rediculous amounts of money on roulette and still she comes out empty handed. Nothing I'm not used to buy that just how it goes. After spending a small paycheck on the fun night of loosing big at the casino I decide that its time to call it a night. But to my surprise I'm down 500 bucks. Ya its a bummer thinking about it but after you get home its the worst feeling! Now I am sure I have a few gamblers out there, but 500 bux in 3 hours is a bad investment. To some this is most likely just pocket change, but I'm out 500. Why did I come here? I wish I knew. Roulette has got to be one of the most fun games I have played here in Milwaukee, Wi, but then again I would have rather just grabbed a plane ticket to the keys and relaxed on the beach with a corona. font we all.....

Payday Loans are the World's Most Expensive Cash

Friday, January 18, 2008

Just another post about the previous one under this. I also found this artical to add on all the the web businesses that are out there trying to make big bucks! The thing is THEY ARE. Here is a little over view on how some are doing it, and what you should avoid.


Payday Loans are the World's Most Expensive Cash
by: Charles Essmeier


If someone told you that they would lend you $500 today if you repaid them with $5000 a year from now, would you take it? What if the repayment amount were only $2500? Would that strike you as a good deal? This may sound like an insane amount to repay on a small loan, but that, in effect, is what thousands of consumers do every day when they take out a payday loan.

Payday loans, also known as cash advance or quick cash loans, are short term loans that typically last about two weeks. In exchange for borrowing relatively small sums ranging from $100-500, the borrower pays a fee that can range from $10-40 per $100 borrowed for the two-week loan. The borrower writes a postdated check for the borrowed sum plus the fee, which the lender may cash two weeks later.

These fees may seem relatively small, but when viewed as an annual percentage rate, they actually amount to anywhere between 250-1000% per year. That's an astronomical amount of interest in a world where a credit card loan at 25% is considered to be high. And yet, the payday loan business is thriving and there are now some 23,000 stores in America that offer some form of these cash advance loans.

Why do people take out such loans? The primary reasons are convenience and a lack of better alternatives. These stores are now so common that there are often several of them on a single block. They don't do credit checks and they will lend money to pretty much anyone with a steady job. And the borrowers tend to be people who do not have access to other borrowing options, such as credit cards, friends with money or a local credit union that offers short term loans.

Defenders of these financial products say that they are simply offering a product that the public wants. That may very well be true, as these businesses are doing very well. What remains to be answered is whether the public really wants to borrow money at 500% per year. In all likelihood, they are doing so only because they cannot find a less expensive option. Anyone who needs a short term loan is more than welcome to go to a payday loan store to get one. But any potential borrowers should realize that they making use of one of the world's most expensive forms of lending.

The Secret to Becoming Rich!

I found this artical on the web and I thought that it was worth posting. It has always amazed me how the web can be so flooded about secrets to becoming rich, payday loans, cash advances, and all these gambeling sites. I mean everywhere I go, if I am on the net for 5 seconds to just check my email I will get hit with these sites. But this one I found a little bit more intresting in the others. Just read it and you will see what I mean.


The Secret to Becoming Rich!
By Elise Fisher

Napoleon Hill, the author of Think and Grow Rich, believes that a person does not have to be a genius to become rich. Any person can become wealthy if he thinks positively and has a deep desire to achieve his goal.

Positive Thinking: You must see your financial dreams and know that you will be able to attain them. You must already own them.

If you begin making up every rationalization under the sun why you can't succeed, pinch yourself. You have to discipline your body and mind to think positive thoughts. Teach yourself that those kind of thought patterns are unacceptable. You can obtain greatness, even if you are not the smartest, most talented, or best looking person in the world. Success is your if you'll just allow it to come into your life. Don't underestimate the power of your thoughts.

Burning Desire: Hill tells a true tale of a man named Edwin Barnes who desired to become Thomas Edison's partner. Most of us would have scoffed at him had we lived back then. Edwin Barnes was a nobody. Nevertheless, he had a deep desire, a life dream, and he was determined. He went to Thomas Edison and convinced him to hire him. He did not instantly achieve his dream, but he worked hard and ultimately became Thomas Edison's partner. This was a feat everyone thought was impossible.

Edwin Barnes followed these 7 steps to gain this great success:

1. Choose a definite dream.

2. Put all your energy into that dream.

3. Be willing to do menial work at first.

4. Visualize your dream.

5. Form a strategy.

6. Endure through the hard times.

7. Eliminate any way to retreat.

As you focus on obtaining your goals, answer these questions: What is the exact amount of money I want? What am I willing to sacrifice for it? What exact date do I want this money by? What is my strategy?

Don't forget, to successful people, there is no such thing as "defeat." What looks like defeat is no more than a great opportunity. Start creating opportunities out of failures and being successful today!
