Flipboard Android

I’m trying out the new Flipboard Android beta test on my phone now – I can already tell the release version will be as mad awesome as its iPad brother, and that’s on a 2-year old phone. Word.

Headed on Back to the Motherland

I’m about to get my travel on to the land of safaris, biltong, big-ass waterfalls and really loud plastic horns. Maybe I’ll find a project using my mobile-strategy skillz while I’m there, but then Africa’s well on its way in that department.

So Long, World Cup

It’s too bad Uruguay and Germany weren’t the finals matchup. That was certainly the more entertaining of the two weekend games. Things I will miss now that the Cup is over: The country going nuts after the Donovan goal; France collapsing in hilarious fashion after cheating Ireland; the fact that a tremendously meaningful game was […]
