Lindsay Lohan Is a Fan of Apple but Not Its Warranty

GeekSugar — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 11:45:29 -0800

Although Lindsay Lohan has run the gauntlet of cell phones, she's become a BlackBerry convert and sticks with Apple for her computer needs. Lindsay recently lamented on Twitter about how her MacBook took a beating during her recent travels and ended up with a cracked screen. I know how expensive replacing screens can be, and unfortunately the star had to learn the hard way that accidental breakage isn't covered on Apple's warranty or by their protection plans.

Besides Lindsay's cracked screen, what else isn't covered through warranty or an APP? Find out when you read more.

Even if you have paid extra for an AppleCare Protection Plan, these items are excluded from your coverage:

Installation of noncovered equipment or software
Damage caused by accident, abuse, neglect, misuse, unauthorized modification, extreme environment (like temps and humidity), extreme physical or electrical stress, fluctuation or surges, lightning, static electricity, fire, and even . . . acts of God
Problems caused by a third-party or non Apple-branded device
Lost or stolen equipment
Cosmetic damage to your device, including scratches, dents, and broken plastic on ports
Batteries, except in respect to battery coverage under APP for iPod, or unless failure has occurred due to a defect in materials and workmanship
Preventative maintenance
Defects caused by normal wear and tear

Lindsay Lohan Rants About Facebook on MySpace

GeekSugar — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 10:34:00 -0800

Although her MySpace account was hacked in the past, Lindsay Lohan is setting the record straight on her personal MySpace blog about her love for MySpace and her issues with Facebook.

"I signed onto Facebook with my new password because someone keeps hacking into my account, and when i typed my password and 'log in' name in, a red sentence came up saying, Account Disabled.
Your account has been disabled by an administrator. If you have any questions or concerns, you can visit our FAQ page here. Wow! I was in shock. I clicked on the link that they told me to click on and then to another link that said: my account may of been disabled by mistake. Once I got to that it gave a note saying why it was disabled which stated the note saying that it was disabled because they believe that I was a fake of myself."

Needless to say, Ms. Lohan was not impressed and expressed her anger for Facebook calling her a fake of herself and disabling her account. The method to her madness? She's hoping that the Facebook peeps will undisable her account so she can get back to doing what else but Facebooking!

Lindsay Lohan's whirlwind life of acting, modeling, singing, and tumultuous relationships sure keeps our Pop team on their toes.

Lindsay Lohan Plays With A Pink Leica Digicam

GeekSugar — Mon, 16 Apr 2007 09:00:29 -0700

Lindsay Lohan couldn't resist having some one-on-one time with a pink Leica digital camera at the flagship Charlotte Ronson store in Tokyo on Friday. She must have borrowed it from a friend, as this trendy pink cam isn't available in the US just yet. Want something similar? Check out the new Leica C-Lux 2, an ultra compact camera which is super tiny and chic (but unfortunately not pink). To see more pics of Lindsay experimenting with flash photography, read more

A brand loved by photographers, movie stars and Hollywood movie-makers, Jennifer Connelly sported a fancy Leica camera in last year's Blood Diamond movie, where she played an American journalist on assignment in war torn Sierra Leon.

Lonelygirl15 Co-Stars With Lohan in I Know Who Killed Me

GeekSugar — Fri, 16 Feb 2007 10:00:09 -0800

The queen of YouTube Lonelygirl15 is now riding the waves of stardom by landing big movie deals. Jessica Rose (aka LG15) scored a small part alongside Miss Lindsay Lohan in the movie I Know Who Killed Me, a movie about a young woman who is rescued after being abducted and tortured by a serial killer.

Here's what Jessica had to say on her myspace page about the movie:

"I filmed my first scenes not long ago and was introduced to Lindsay, and from what I saw she is not how the press portrays her. In my opinion she seemed very sweet and funny and absolutely beautiful! Anyway, I am also going to be starring in the movie The Perfect Sport and I believe it'll be out by the end of 07 but thats not a promise!"

Seems like her YouTube stint as being a quirky, innocent school girl has opened some hollywood doors. I'm sure we'll be seeing alot more of her in the future.

Should Celebrities Be Given Seniority to Online Usernames?

GeekSugar — Sun, 12 Apr 2009 06:02:26 -0700

One word of advice, don't register any Jennifer Lopez URLs in the near future. The entertainer and mother of two just won her cybersquatting (must add this one to the geek dictionary) case against a man who registered jenniferlopez.net and jenniferlopez.org to send users to a pay-per-click ad site.

And speaking of celebrities and names, Twitter is now taking celebrity usernames and giving them back to the real celebrity. That's right, say you register your Twitter username under the alias Lindsay Lohan (probably already taken) but say you did secure that name, Twitter would probably take it from you later and tell you to pick a different name.

What is going on here? Is Twitter realizing that their popularity is increasing due to celebrity participation and therefore is striving to give them preferential treatment over other users? And how do they determine who a real "celeb" is? Is every A, B, C, and even D list celeb going to be knocking on Twitter's door begging for their name back?

What are your thoughts on this? Should celebs be given any preferential URL and/or username treatment when it comes to the web? In the meantime, this non-celeb geek will keep using Namechk to see what sites I can and can't use my real name for.

Who Is Your Favorite BlackBerry Obsessed Celeb of 2008?

GeekSugar — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 11:00:23 -0800

iPhones may be one of the most liked gadgets of 2008, but BlackBerrys seem to get the most smartphone love. Audrina Patridge, Lauren Conrad, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Nicole Richie, Paris Hilton, and Madonna are constantly spotted around The Hills, at clubs, or on the set with their crackberrys. Of course, we can't forget the gentleman: Barack Obama kept his BlackBerry on hand his entire campaign, John Krasinski became the voice of BlackBerry Storm, and John Mayer used his connections to get a Bold before anyone else.
