Look at my Crazy Cat!
iPhone, I Am Rich!
Yet again, another ridicules app was been released on the iPhone. This time it was pulled as fast as it appeared. “Armin Heinrich – I Am Rich” which dose nothing other then display a red gemstone on your screen. The only purpose is to remind you and others that you have enough money to waste on this senseless app. Apple has to approve the apps that show up in the store, and I figure they were thinking, ‘we will get a nice percent of profit of this app’. The best part about this app is that is costs ONLY $999.99! If it were still in the app store, I would buy it in a heartbeat…NOT!
RIAA is “Real Insane Addicted A-holes”!
This is going to be short because I could go on for a long time at how dumb this is. The RIAA is trying to charge the radio stations royalty fees for playing music from their record labels (or they will consider it pirating). The radio stations already are in money trouble, what could the RIAA be thinking? This is going to kill the already struggling radio market… end of story!
Wh t th h ck (what the heck)
I went the the theater last weekend and saw the new Indiana Jones movie. Have to say it was excellent until the last 5 min. (That is besides the point) I didn’t notice but apparently Paramount clipped audio from the movie to discourage pirating it. “What the heck” I am just trying to legitimately watch a movie and this is how I am repaid? I made the comment before and I will make it again… TOO MUCH COPYRIGHT!
Unlikely Pairs
In a world of mergers and acquisitions, one has to ask, have we gone to far? Recently Microsoft tired to buy Yahoo! but was unsuccessfully. What would a company like this be called? I have an idea for them if it ever comes back to the tables (witch I think it will). Presenting Microhoo! 
There was another big possible acquisition that I have to ask, “why?” about. I present to you CBS|net. I know that this one is not as bad as Microhoo, but still… CBS Corporation wants to by Cnet.com.
And last but not least we have my personal favorite of the night, Circuit Buster. It has a nice ring to it (I think) and the marketing department would be fools not to use it! I mean, really, a dyeing company like Blockbuster buying a dead company like Circuit City. What are they thinking? I hope that this one doesn’t go through!
Well there you have it, an all in one deal, we have the future of computer software, television and retail. There isn’t much else out there. What is this world coming to?
