Car Piracy?
I think most people in the pirating age would download a car if they could!
I Want A New Phone! N78 NOT Cool
WARNING: This is a serious RANT!
<rant> I have had enough of this piece of absolute rubbish! My Nokia N78 should be in the bin, but instead I am stuck using this pile of *!%@!!%#%. I should have tossed it like a man holding a live hand grenade, but instead I idiotically place it back in my pocket waiting for my impending death due to frustration and my stress levels rising to such a significant level that I keel over from the most gigantic heart attack this planet has ever witnessed.
This has to be the worst phone I have ever used. I have used many Nokia’s before and found them to be very nice phones. They have had great usability, functionality and everything about them made me want to stick with a Nokia for my next phone.
This phone how ever has been a nightmare. First of all, the Symbian operating system I am finding horrible. I wonder if it is merely the version used on this phone, but I am really am not finding the layout very productive, and rather an effort to do things. There are some many buttons to be pressed to do simple things.

This phone also does not integrate very well with the Internet. The built in browser is EXTREMELY slow and often crashes. I want a phone that can quickly get me onto facebook and twitter without any effort. I want to post photo’s onto Flickr within seconds and maybe even be able to write a blog post from the phone. I want something with a social media and business focus.

Google Docs: 12 Cool Features You Didn’t Know
Here is an article I found on Shakk.us. I would recommend reading it here though as the grammar and layout over there is shocking. I have edited this to make it far easier to read. Enjoy.
Slick and simple, Google Docs is the online office suite for people who don’t need bells and whistles. You can open and edit most office document, spreadsheet and presentation formats in Google Docs – and view PDFs. It autosaves your work, so it’s crash proof, and you can share documents publicly or with selected contacts.Google Docs looks underpowered, but dig deep and you’ll find smart features that other suites can’t beat. Here are 12 of the best.
1. Recover old revisions. Go to File > Revision History and the entire past of the current document will be revealed. This powerful feature allows you to select and edit any version of your document. Compare revisions side by side too – new edits are colour coded to their author.
2. Create HTML tables. You can access a document’s underlying HTML code direct by going to “Edit > Edit HTML”. There are lots of uses for this. For example: use Google Docs WYSIWYG table making tools – then go to “Edit HTML”. Paste the code into any input window that expects HTML. Instant, painless table coding.HTML VIEW: Handy for chucking together web page content, Google Docs are rendered in HTML.
3. Add CSS. Google Docs allows you to add CSS styles to any document. Try this. Make a new document, highlight it and choose “Heading 3″ from the Styles dropdown. Next, go to “Edit > Edit CSS” and enter this code: { font-size: 200%; font-family: Georgia,”Times New Roman”,Times,serif; }Click “OK” and the change should be instant. Go to “File > New > New from Template” to investigate more complex CSS examples.
Thats Photoshopped! (Funny)
For all the g33ks out there:
I think someone has been spending a bit *too* much time working on some psd files :P
