Accident Sketch


Accident Sketch uses a template system. Cars, signs, pedestrians, and more all snap to the grid and in the case of small objects like signs can be moved from there. You can change the colors of things, zoom in and out to get as close or wide as you need, and even assign information to parties involved like the license plate numbers of the cars in the accident. Once you create a diagram you can also generate a text-based report to fill in details that can't be easily conveyed by the picture. I mean everyone has accidents and this is a great program to help you out with things.

Sprint Hero



A new android phone, faster, better, stronger, and with a generic look. Sprint's new phone the HTC Hero happens to be the best android phone you can buy. It doesn't suffer show-stopping slowdowns anymore, even with a full set of HTC's widgets running. Speedwise overall, it's about the same as a G1 running the stock Android OS—bearable, but not exactly a blitzkrieg

27 inches?!!



Whattt?! Mac has come out with a 27" screen. The default brightness is a bit much, but of course you can turn it down. And the contrast is welcome; even my new 13-inch MacBook Pro looks yellowed and washed out next to it. But at this pixel density, which is sharper than my notebook, it's almost too sharp, requiring me to sit closer than I would ordinarily do with a 27 inch display. This is a really great thing for mac as it has been evolving for many years.

Greeeen Energyy


Nimbus E-Power not only fueled by electricity, it manages a respectable top speed of 27 knots and a range of 20 nautical miles on a 4-hour charge. The boat may be priced 30 or 40 percent higher than an equivalent diesel powered craft, but you could save money over the 10 year life of the battery on fuel costs. Can't wait to see these things out there! It's good to see that people are trying to make more things green powered and are trying to make out environment a little better.

The Mole Webcam?


The Mole webcam infiltrates your inner sanctum, records the goings on and automatically sends the footage to YouTube. It can also notify you via email or Twitter. How cool is that?! It's also a great inexpensive surveillance camera. For $300, Astak also throws in motion detection, night vision, two-way audio and built-in DVR. The Mole is designed for direct access from any web browser, which lets users watch their video instantly, from anywhere, including the iPhone. Just keeps getting better.

Lakersss!!


"Lakers want to ring in new season carefully". The Lakers begin the season tonight against the Clippers, but not before they receive their championship rings from last season's successful playoff run.
"It's always one of the toughest games that you'll play because of the emotions," Kobe Bryant said. "You're in such a great space, feeling happy and content with what you've accomplished, and now you have to turn around and understand that this team is coming for your head."--LA Times
The Lakers have won eight consecutive games against their down-the-hall neighbors, blasting the Clippers by an average of 21.8 points.

"Oink, oink"


Swine Flu vaccines are being given to everyone. So far, only 50,000 adults and children have been vaccinated against H1N1 flu countywide. An additional 94,000 doses of H1N1 vaccines are expected to be shipped to private and public providers in Los Angeles County this week. The "priority groups" were the ones to get the vaccination for sure. Those people are pregnant women; people living with or caring for infants under 6 months old; emergency-medical-services personnel and healthcare workers; children and young adults ages 6 months to 24; and those 25 to 64 years old with chronic medical conditions such as heart or lung disease, asthma, diabetes, or weakened immune systems.

Oooo, a NEW Blackberry!!


The new Blackberry Curve 8900 has a sleek new twist to its classic look. It was supposed to be part of the 9000 series but lacking 3G, it stayed in the 8000's. Having a Blackberry phone myself is awesome, I love having one. It's my mini computer, set up with WiFi, letting me write down notes, camera/video, etc. It's camera has 3.2 megapixel which is pretty cool and a very nice new, elegant look to it. The 8900 has now been released to AT&T in the US. Can't wait to read or hear some reviews and this new phone.

Blackberry Updates


A new Blackberry desktop manager for Mac users is coming out. It allows people to sync data with Mac apps for contacts, appointments, tasks, and notes. The software also allows people to schedule back-ups, encrypt files, and perhaps most importantly, install software updates for their BlackBerry devices. Unlike iPhone software, which works with both Mac and PCs, BlackBerry Desktop Manager has only been available for Windows users. Until now, a third-party tool has been needed for BlackBerry devices to sync with Macs.
