Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

How to reset an iPod.

Yeah, I always momentarily forget that when faced with freaky freezes. And now my backup drive is acting up, so I know what I'll be buying this weekend.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

How to reset an iPod.

I didn't click the link, but since sara said her iPod got weird from a cat sitting on it, I'm REALLY hoping that the reset method is to have a dog bury it in the backyard.

Please tell me it's true even if it's not.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

iPhone games:

  • Catan (e version of cool board game Settlers of Catan)
  • UniSudoku (best version of that game I've seen)
  • Tiger Woods Golf (If you like golf, it was $0.99)
  • Oregon Trail
  • AMC Free (Airport Madness Control. Very addicting)
  • Can Knockdown 2
  • Bocce-Ball
  • Shanghai
  • Hot Pursuit

Non-Games

  • WootWatch
  • Star Walk
  • Nasa
  • Mark The Spot (for the phone. Marks where you had bad cell service, with the hopes AT&T will fix it)
  • Bloom
  • SoundDrop
  • KPCC radio (local NPR. Funny, there are dead zones the radio doesn't work in the car, but I get great 3G service, so I listen to the app then)
  • Navigon (paid GPS. I got the region only. It's pretty dang good. Dunno how well it will work in skyscraper type of city, but works great in LA area)
  • HoursTracker
  • DocsToGo
  • GroceryGadget

Hey. New board.

Thanks for the Catan suggestion, I had no idea there was an iPhone version. Unfortunately my biggest Catan fan friend has no iPhone/iPod touch.

Art Crawl!!!

There's an app so that you can see the weather in different locations on Westeros. (Game of Thrones.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

How did I not know there was an Oregon Trail for iPhone?!!! That is wicked cool.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, my most used app is Still Tasty, for keeping track of how long to keep food in your fridge or pantry. You can enter stuff as you buy it or cook it and it'll alert you when you need to have it eaten or frozen by.

Whoah. AT&T is buying T-Mobile (in the US) for $39 billion.
