Awhile ago, AT&T released an app for the iPhone called Mark the Spot, which allows users to send a message to AT&T pinpointing their location, the problem (dropped call, no data coverage, etc), along with various diagnostic information. I use it often.

One thing I’ve noticed lately though is that whenever I open the program to report a problem, my iPhone instantly finds a connection. Have you seen this strange phenomenon?

I think AT&T is toying with me.

A photo of mine appeared in an article about Veronica Belmont and Ryan Block in Geeksugar, for their series of “Geeks We Love” articles!

An old clip from the Late Show with Conan. Louis C.K. explains how our life is amazing, but no one is happy. Hilarious!

Tomorrow is a big day! It’s Apple’s latest keynote / Stevenote and rumor has it that they’ll finally be debuting their revolutionary new tablet. Either that, or a new paint ball gun.

We haven’t seen this much hype prior to an Apple keynote since Macworld 2007, when Apple announced the iPhone. It’ll be exciting to see what Steve unveils.

We’ll be there, covering it live at gdgt. Tune into our live blog at 10AM Pacific for live commentary and photos from the event as it happens.

It’ll be exciting no matter what happens. Personally, I want some new software. Multitasking on the iPhone. Please?

The Canon PowerShot S90 is by far the most versatile and impressive point and shoot digital camera that I’ve ever used. From manual controls, to impressive image and build quality, this consumer camera has all the bases covered. It’s not without a few minor issues, but it definitely offers many features that are not yet standard on similarly priced point and shoot cameras.

What do you get when you open up the box for the S90? A pocket-size camera with built-in image stabilization, macro mode, ability to shoot VGA video, a 3.8x zoom lens with a maximum aperture of f/2.0, the ability to shoot images in RAW format, support for SDHC cards, maximum ISO of 3200 (and ISO 12800 in a special mode), and a large 3-inch screen.

This series of screenshots is only from the past month! This happens all the time though. AT&T is horrible.

Sadly, this happens to me way too often in San Francisco when I use my iPhone 3GS on AT&T.

I’ve had my Canon PowerShot S90 for just under two months now, and the camera still continues to impress me. I take it with me everywhere I go and it manages to nail nearly every shot!

What better place to take the new camera than the California Academy of Sciences? Photographic examples to follow.

Oh man! Earlier today, I received a phone call from a blocked number. I didn’t have time to answer the phone, so I let it go to voicemail.

Boy, was I in for a surprise when I listened to it later!

Wow. Just, wow.

(For privacy sake, I’ve stripped out the name of the doctor, the hospital, and her phone number)

I’m just going to say it. I’ve wanted to do this to my PS3 a number of times.
