They probably could have made this with an Apogee Mic and nobody would have known the difference. But now he can ebay all that hardware with a signature of authenticity or something and probably make 200% of their money back. I don't know w

Well, if you can afford it and want to move to California anyway the internship could be an excuse to do it. But never, ever trust anyone who asks you to work for free . It doesn't matter who they are or what they're promising, don't fuc

The problem with this theory is that when a person who follows the news hears a few minutes of Rush Limbaugh or reads something from naturalnews.com they realize pretty quickly that it's bullshit. The people who fall for that stuff always s

Phooey, Facebook is at this point just a big Lebron James charging down the court and intimidating everybody in it's way. People will leave as soon as it's convenient because they viscerally hate it . The Onion told me so: http://www.the

It's really depressing to see the "Don't be Evil" company get down in the mud because they're afraid of some fly-by-night swindlers who nobody will remember in five years. I'm not giving you my name and face, Google, no matter how much I us

So if I repurpose a photo I found on Instagram and it becomes the next Obama "Hope" poster I have to pay the photographer and Instagram? That would be lolled out of court. Same thing with selling people's personal pics as stock photos, i

More of an "ick" factor than anything, I have a dummy Facebook account (I jumped that ship years ago) that I keep just for that sort of thing but I feel dirty using it. Not everybody thinks Facebook is creepy but their brains do , I don't

I use it as a super wire service, I follow thousands of news organizations organized by lists, it's pretty cool for news junkies and journalists. I never tweet anything though, I don't see the point.

I'm sure they've gone over the numbers and determined the only way to generate enough ad revenue would be to seriously annoy the users, all of whom are familiar with Adblock anyway. And why go down that road if they don't have to, there's n
