Original iphone announcement by Steve Jobs in 2007

Original iphone announcement by Steve Jobs in 2007
Looking back on.., Miscellaneous

Hard to believe it’s been ten years but it was Macworld 2007 and Apple had been teasing that they were going to make an announcement that would be revolutionary. By this point the iphone had been rumored and making the round in various sites and constantly making the front page of Digg. So why don’t we take a look back and see this impressive keynote Steve Jobs gave a decade ago.


 

As rumors started popping up about Apple making a cell phone I remember not being impressed as I had no need of an ipod and a phone in one as I already had both and it wasn’t a problem at all since phones with internet weren’t something new exactly either. While I didn’t get the appeal of it at first that quickly changed throughout the year as hackers started putting different programs which became known as “apps”, that’s right the first iphone didn’t have the app store, that launched one year later but that was the time I saw that this was a game changer and I was in line once the second iphone released. But let’s take a look at the presentation that changed the world.

Predictions for 2017
Miscellaneous

The new year is here and coming off from a difficult year, let’s take a look at some things to expect in 2017 besides more celebrities sadly passing away which will likely happened as explained in my end of 2016 article here. It’s a good read as I believe all the wheels that were set in motion will only continue as last year only paved the direction we were going but now we must go through it.

The end of 2016

The end of 2016
Miscellaneous

2016 in review and it was definitely an eventful year and not for good reasons and I like many am looking forward to it ending because I’m ready to start a new year. The year definitely started on the wrong side of the bed when David Bowie passed away which was a total shock since his latest album ha had only come out 2 days before. As the year passed I remember reading “2016 is being rough and its only beginning” from various people but it really was true and it indeed was blow after blow but I did end up annoyed by the “F 2016” being posted every time something bad happened, I mean there is a cause and an effect and a lot of important things were dismissed by blaming a year instead of analyzing the issues which I’ll touch on here.

How long should Christmas last?

How long should Christmas last?
Miscellaneous

At what time do you put away your Christmas decorations? As I wondered when I was going to put away my Christmas tree this year but I just couldn’t decide. For a few years I was putting them away on the 26th since Christmas was over but then I listened to the 12 days of Christmas song and looked it up and indeed there are 12 days of Christmas and contrary to some calendars they actually begin on the 25th, they don’t end on the 25th which made sense so I tried to follow that the year after but things are a lot more complicated than that.

Christmas being the mess of a holiday since it’s a fusion of so many different things that it’s only normal for there not to be an exact answer and you’ll see answers that ranger from various days in January all the way to February 2nd for specific reasons and they all have some validity.

Xmas miscrave Haul 2016
Miscellaneous

Christmas was yesterday and we all received presents, did you get any good ones?

In my case my present was more of a trip and other presents I got this year aren’t really “share” friendly and I don’t mean they aren’t appropriate but nothing really “interesting” to show online but quite useful and great in their own right. I actually turned down a few “fun” geeky things when some people asked me, maybe I’m growing up but let’s hope it’s not that and next year can be a little more “fun” to show.

Miscrave’s Halloween traditions

Miscrave’s Halloween traditions
Miscellaneous

What are some of your Halloween traditions that you guys follow? As an adult it can be difficult to get in the mood for Halloween but I definitely try to at least make some effort. It has become difficult for me to pretty much do anything like putting any decorations at all and if I find a decent Halloween party I feel satisfied for the year but even then I try to add to the holiday. The only thing I can say not many people get to do is I eat “Pan de Muerto” or “dead bread” which is a traditional Mexican bread for Dia de Muertos but I count it as part of a Halloween tradition.

Bob wehadababyitsaboy Geico commercial: social engineering in the 90s
Miscellaneous

Back in the late 90s/early 2000’s I used to watch a lot of wrestling, and I mean a lot. I was basically glued to all their programming on the USA network and with that came repetitive commercials. There were plenty of clever commercials but no matter how funny it may have been if you watch it hundreds of times you’re bound to get sick of it.
