If you’ve never heard of Steam, it’s a PC/Mac gaming portal (like an iTunes App Store) that gives its users instant access to over 1,100 games that can be purchased, downloaded and played from any computer. There is also a community you can engage in, chat with friends while gaming, get automatic game updates and best of all, enjoy Steam-only special offers that included low prices and free-play weekends.
With a soon to be released mobile app, users will be able to purchase new game releases and special offers straight from their iPhone or Android, something that previously could only be done from the Steam desktop app.

Last week, my wife asked me about one of my tweets.
This normally isn’t a big deal, since it’s certainly not the first time she’s asked me about one of my tweets. What made this situation unique, was the fact that I hadn’t actually penned the tweet myself.
I was happy to find it wasn’t SPAM. No one wants to “be that guy,” but I still wasn’t comfortable with tweets going out that were not actually mine.
Why did it happen?

Here is a handy tool to help you determine what apps have permissions to access your private information:

This is what you get when you combine the television shows “24” and “ER” into one program. The result is Danger Hospital!!!
Mixing these two “worlds” results in a pretty ridiculous scenario.
Is the Church doing the same thing every Sunday morning?

It’s called, “The Geocities-izer,” and it can make any webpage look like it was made by a 13 year-old in 1996.
You know, back when websites were built “the old fashioned way” with Notepad? When counters were cool and Netscape was the best browser?
Good times.
Here are what some websites look like when Geocitified:

How often do you notice product placement in television and film?
I seem to notice products more (or the lack thereof) when they’ve given something an imaginary label or do a lousy job hiding an Apple logo or Dell insignia on a laptop.
Now, here’s a quick look at Apple products as they appear throughout film:
