Fix: Apple’s Mini DisplayPort Wireless Internet Connection Problem
05 Oct 2010 by Brian J. Nelson / 4 Comments
Apple’s newest MacBook Pro models feature a Mini DisplayPort for connecting external monitors. While the new connection is in many ways much better than a full-sized DVI or even DisplayPort, there have been recent reports of problems with wireless internet connections. When connecting an external monitor through the Mini DisplayPort, the Airport wireless signal drops to nothing (or almost no...

Keep Your Roster Up-To-Date with the Yahoo! Fantasy Football App
03 Oct 2010 by Derek Johnson / 1 Comment
Here I am in class, when I realize that the Minnesota Vikings have a bye week this week. Normally this wouldn’t bother me much (I’m a Packers fan), but I happen to be lucky enough to have Adrian Pederson on my fantasy football team. So, all of a sudden the bye week is a huge deal. But alas! I am 1 hour into a 3 hour class, and let’s face it – I have no chance of remembering...

Get Great Deals at Amazon.com Anywhere on the Web with Shopping Assistant
14 Sep 2010 by Evan Wondrasek
Google Chrome & Safari only: I’m a big fan of shopping online at Amazon.com (in fact, I usually check Amazon before even considering getting in the car and driving to a brick-and-mortar store). If I’m checking out gadgets online at a different website, I almost always end up going back to Amazon to make the purchase because of their competitive prices and great selection. Shopping Assist...

Your Computer Is Giving You Insomnia, But I’ve Got the Medicine: F.lux
24 Jun 2010 by Evan Wondrasek / 7 Comments
If you’re like me, you spend a lot of time looking at a computer’s LCD screen, especially after the sun has gone down. Now this is great because we’re all doing important things like watching YouTube videos and blogging, but there’s a downside: it’s turning you into an insomniac. That’s right, an insomniac, a person with a persistent inability to fall asleep...

App Review: Logitech Touch Mouse for iPhone and iPod Touch
14 Jun 2010 by Derek Johnson / 8 Comments
Readers, I have a confession: I am lazy. If I sit down to watch TV and lose the remote, I really hope there’s something good on because there is no way I’m getting up to push the button on the TV to turn the channel (how archaic, do I LOOK like I’m elderly?). I recently got a laptop with HDMI output and a streaming Netflix account. The problem? Every time I want to pause, rewind, or change ...

Comparison: Motorola Droid vs. iPod Touch
25 Nov 2009 by Evan Wondrasek / 44 Comments
A friend of mine recently asked if she should buy an iPod Touch or a Motorola Droid. While these are two completely different products, one being a wifi-enabled MP3 player and the other being a full-featured smartphone, a choice definitely still exists. So without any further adieu, here’s what I had to say about the two of them! I bought my 16GB iPod Touch two summers ago and I used...
