Crazy, Awesome, Geeky Computers Spotted at a Live Concert
I'm a big live music fan, as evidenced by my love of websites for finding live music near me and my dislike of tech-related distractions like texting during shows. While at a concert last week, I stood behind the most impressive sound and lighting boards that I have ever seen!
The lighting computers on the left were operated with touchscreens.
Access Store Coupons on Your iPhone With the Yowza App
With the holidays right around the corner, I'm not only starting to think about shopping, but I'm also thinking of creative ways to save. Yesterday, I told you about ten websites that will help you save some money on gifts, and today it's all about Yowza!!, an iPhone and iPod Touch app that will show you all of the store coupons within a mile or as far as 15 miles from where you are shopping (which makes sense why it has two exclamations after its name!).
Once you download this free app, open it and you will see all of the coupons applicable to your location, or you can type in a store name to see what's available.
Are You More Tech Savvy Than Your Boss?
Have you found yourself in this situation? Your boss is either a bit of a technophobe or just doesn't understand how email/her BlackBerry/the office scanner works and asks for your help every time she turns on the device? One writer at Marie Claire confesses she has to help her boss with even the most mindless tech issues — and she's not alone.
Do You Text During Concerts or Other Shows?
The other night, I went to a concert with a few of my friends. After the initial bag check and ticket scan from security, we saw large signs at the entrance to the venue reading, "The artists ask that you set your phones to vibrate and refrain from texting and other cell phone use during the performance." While I'm used to signs asking concert-goers not to take photos or videos during the show, this was the first ban on texts or cell phone use I'd seen during a concert.
Sprint Debuts Cheeky New Desperate Housewives Ads
Companies and TV networks are getting quite clever when it comes to creating commercials that blend well with the show it's airing with. We already know that people aren't watching commercials during popular shows, so it makes sense that companies are using some smart tactics to get people to watch — and not fast forward through — its commercials. Sprint is doing just that by teaming up with Desperate Housewives to launch seven commercials that were actually written and directed by Desperate Housewives employees.
People Aren't Watching Commercials During Popular Shows
TV networks, don't hate me — but I barely ever watch commercials. This is probably because my DVR is always full, so whenever I do watch a show, I feel the need to quickly get through it as fast as possible so I can delete it and move on to the next one!
A majority of you said that you occasionally watch commercials even with a DVR, but did you know that nearly all shows that won Emmys this year are more likely to have their commercials skipped over?
Twitter Geo-Location Functionality Arriving This Week?
With the 140TC Twitter Conference in LA in full swing, it would only make sense that the popular micro-blogging site debuts some new features.
What can we expect? Well, geotagged tweets could be surfacing in the next few days, as the Twitter platform team waits for the green light to launch local functionality live.
Do You Use Facebook More Than Email to Stay In Contact?
I'm guessing that since you're reading this site, you're on some sort of social networking site (more specifically Facebook), and probably check a few times a day (or if you're like me, checking it all the time via a mobile app). Facebook, as well as other social networking sites, provide a great way to keep in touch with people. So much so that social networking may be edging out email as a way to keep in touch with friends and family.
Kelly Ripa Kicks Off a Text-a-Thon For Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month
It only makes sense that daytime talk-show host Kelly Ripa — a self-proclaimed iPhone addict — is teaming up with the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund to help raise awareness during Ovarian Cancer Month with a text-a-thon!
Throughout the rest of the month, Kelly will be encouraging people to help fund research for a cure by donating money by either texting "Kelly" to 85944 or by visiting Kelly Confidential.
I'm sure Kelly will keep us posted on the text-a-thon progress via her new favorite microblogging site — Twitter!
