Angry Birds Challenge

angrybirdsseasons-1-8

I've been spending way too much time with Angry Birds lately.  One of the variant games (Angry Birds Seasons) has been releasing one new level every day, and I can't go to sleep until I get three stars. I haven't updated this post yet, but I have three stars on every level released so far from the basic game and both the Seasons and Rio variants. … [Read more...]

Last week, I managed to leave my iPhone in a different building across campus. Boneheaded move, I know.

Favorite iPhone/iPad Apps

It surprises people that, as a well-assimilated Apple fanboy, I didn't buy the first generation iPhone. I was in the store on launch day, I had one in my hand, my credit card was burning a hole in my pocket... and I left without one. I used my Treo for nearly another year until the 2nd generation iPhone (confusingly named 3G) was released. I wasn't … [Read more...]
