Carcassone app going universal, gets higher price to match

Dec 7th 2010 6:56PM (TUAW.com)
My favorite game and excited to see how much better it looks on iPad now that it will be native. Been playing on my iPad anyway.

'Dexter' Season 5, Episode 10 Recap

Nov 29th 2010 12:00PM (AOL TV)
I absolutely think Lumen will be back next year. After five seasons of Dexter dealing with his dark passenger alone I think it would be a good fit to change things up in season six. She wouldn't need to be a full-time partner in crime, just a girlfriend that knows what Dexter does and somebody he can talk to about it with.

Full time lover, part time serial killers assistant.

Safari tip: Force HTML5 video to open instead of Flash

Nov 22nd 2010 12:44PM (TUAW.com)
Went Flash-free a few weeks ago and can't say I've missed anything life-shattering. The only time I had a problem was trying to view my Google Analytics stats. But opening them in Chrome solved the problem for me so death by lack of Flash was averted.

I really think this is an all or nothing dilemma. If you're somebody that visits sites that are mostly Flash you probably don't want to do it. Other people probably won't even notice they no longer have Flash installed.

I'm a fairly heavy internet user and can't say I've noticed.

iTunes November announcement: The likely and long-shot possibilities

Nov 15th 2010 12:32PM (TUAW.com)
Be prepared to be let down.

It will be the Beatles.

Anything else seems more suited to an event with Jobs demoing. Adding the Beatles alone would be overkill for an event.

But it wouldn't be below Apple to hype it to this level.

iTunes - the item you tried to buy is no longer available

Sep 13th 2010 8:27PM (TUAW.com)
I get the "the info on the page is outdated" message every time I update, which is at least two times a day. I like to stay on top of things. I've just come to expect it as part of the upgrade process.

Clicking "okay" on that dialog gives me the next one that says it failed trying to refresh the page or something. When I hit update all again it works.

Very annoying but nothing that is going to cause me headaches, though I'd love if it was fixed.

TUAW review and giveaway: Doxie portable scanner

Apr 15th 2010 5:44PM (TUAW.com)
I've been contemplating buying a doxie but I hate to see my plasma donation money spent, but the urge is strong.

If I had a Doxie I would definitely start scanning all of our receipts and anything that comes in the mail that normally ends up shoved in a box or file cabinet.

I would also use it to scan my 1000s of photos. What a nice weekend project that would be! But only if you pick me as the winner, otherwise I'll probably end up having to watch Dancing with the Stars with my wife.

iPhone OS 4.0: Multitasking, finally, hooray!

Apr 8th 2010 3:46PM (TUAW.com)
I think for devices like the iPhone/Touch/iPad I'll 99.99% of the time take battery life and app performance gains over multitasking.

Methinks multitasking on these devices is overrated.

'American Idol' - '1 of 10 Voted Off' Recap

Apr 1st 2010 2:05PM (AOL TV)
Agreed, worst we've yet watched. In fact we cant even watch most of the performance nights. In the past we'd at least be able to stomach watching the performances while zipping through the banter.

But this year we FF through almost the entire show.

'American Idol' - 'Top 12 Perform' Recap

Mar 17th 2010 12:20PM (AOL TV)
All I know is that the two young kids shouldn't even be on. They have zero chance of actually winning and the longer they stay means somebody more deserving has to leave. I don't know if Lily would have won but she was much better than either of those kids.

Idol needs to make the minimum age 18. The only thing that keeps the kids in is that people think they are cute and vote for them because they feel sorry for the poor kid.

Overall last night was horrendous. I actually like Tim's reggae take. Crystal was great. Lee was pretty good. Siobhan was okay but she looks so crazy when she sings.
