An Old Lady Plays Aion : Meandering to Level 20
Category: Game Reviews, Geeky Good, MMORPG's, PC |
Comments Off
I began playing Aion since the Beta and loved it from the start. I’ve avidly played just about every MMO from NCSoft for the past five years. Now if only they would bring all of their games to the Mac, and the iPad. In general they have topped the charts in the reviews I’ve done [...]

Much Ado About Twitter
Category: Editorials, Exclusive, Geeky Good, Old School, Women |
Comments Off
Are Twitter and Facebook a necessary evil? The week I’ve spent boycotting Twitter hasn’t amounted to much. The Plurk App and website function well. The graphic timeline and the additional features are good. But it’s empty. Searches for my various interests, iTouch, and PS3 don’t give up lists of familiar developers, PR Reps and gamers. [...]

Good Grief Geek

2010 hasn’t been a year paved with fun and games at our house so far. With one family member turning up mysteriously dead in January, and another convalescing at home with a long term illness there hasn’t been much levity. The gadgets that I have assembled have had more to do with life support than [...]

Following the loss of my brother and personal guru in a hiking accident on January 12, I was left with a feeling of having many unanswered questions about what had happened. Being a self proclaimed geek mourning a self proclaimed nerd, I’ve turned to various resources in technology to comfort myself. That small comfort being [...]

Ok stop kicking the walls and shouting boys, and SIT DOWN. I will explain to you in words that even the young male readers will understand. If you can’t see what the iPad will do to the world in the future right now, then you just don’t have the vision for it. Not everyone can [...]

iPod Touch 3rd (ish) Generation Review
Category: Apple, Gadgets, Geeky Good, iPhone / iPod Touch |
Comments Off
Good things happened aside from doing the Ellen dance when finally getting my iPod Touch, someone at Walmart did me a solid. Really. Grandma’s Christmas money was well spent this year. If the iPhone is the equivalent of the communicator then the iPod is the tricorder. As some ask what is it? And why would [...]

Logitech Wireless Optical Mouse Review
Category: Gadgets, Geeky Good, Mobile |
Comments Off
We picked up the Logitech V220 Wirelesss Optical Mouse for playing Aion on my MSi Wind Netbook. This mouse was especially designed for notebooks. It was $29.99 at Best Buy. So it was reasonable as well as innovative. I needed it for the wheel in the middle for zooming the perspective in and out in [...]

E – Cigarette Review
Category: Gadgets, Geeky Good |
Comments Off
We are trying out two disposable E – Cigarette introductory trials. The first one that arrived is the No. 7 Tobacco flavor. We found that dropping the cartridge is bad. Don’t do that. These new gadgets make many claims such as being safer than cigarette smoking, eliminating second hand smoke and being free to “smoke” [...]

DS Disintegration

Comments Off
My original DS was an import from Japan that I got in ’05. It’s the pretty pink pearl color. A couple weeks ago the hinges disintegrated. I’m the proverbial old lady that only drives her DS on Sundays. I keep all my gadgets clean and happy. They get stored in their box or a case. [...]
