So being around town, I see this blackberry thing is catching on. Although I think phone service is a racket (see blog Jan. 12), its still basically affordable for most working folks. I guess in the interest of having a more progressive society, I'd have to give props. I know its changed my life drastically, I can wish it does the same for others.

So I'm standing here at the bus stop realizing just how much text messaging is changing the way we live. Much beyond the concept of folks enjoying the non-confronting communication, its also very "secret agent" as well. I kinda get my James Bond on with my blackberry in hand.

OK. Is it just me or is Apple (my favorite computer company) running a racket? There are four, count that 4 unworking iPods in my household. The original with the physical wheel, a mini, a 20 gig, and a U2 special edition. Funny thing is as I ride the NY subway, I see people having NONE of those versions! I see new Nanos and Photos, but none of the four in my household.
R = readily
A = applying
C = crap to
K = keep
E = entertaining
T = takers

You know, I just realized yesterday that I can write in this thing more than once a day. Duh! So on days, certain days I guess I can squeeze out more than one enrty. Let's see, I'm on my way up to Sirius, Howard started Monday, so that should be interesting. Can't say how I really feel about satellite radio, on one hand the idea of commercial free is dynamically appealing, on the other hand PAYING for radio sucks. Perhaps I'll be singing a different tune if they give me my own show.

So I get this email from allhiphop.com today and its telling me about a book author having a live Q&A. I access the site via my blackberry, and it takes me to allhiphop's ill community message board. I go to the main site, still looking for the location (bookstore, etc.) This guys gonna be. Turns out, the message board IS the place. 3 hours, live chat, book author, allhiphop. Digital Noise-Making. Nuff said.

So this DTV thingy, (dtvmac.com) goes right along with the flow of my never-ending "predictions of the digerati elite". I still do not believe all screens (movie,tv, and computer) will merge. We digerati don't/never want that. I want my blackberry & your sidekick to be a different animal. Makes sense. Dollars too :-).
