Internet

It seems as though I'm getting a lot of those... whatever they're called things that automatically post comments on your blog. I think they're supposed to be like spam in the blog world. Anyway, they're pretty fucking annoying and I've been deleting them when I remember to.

BTW, does anyone have a mobileme account? Is it worth it? What are the benefits for me? I did a bit of reading on it and it doesn't look like it's anything special - nothing there that I can't already do with Google or my ISP webspace. Can anyone convince me that I should spend $100/year on mobileme?

iPad Day

No, I didn't get an iPad. I can't. It's not available in Canada yet. Do I want one? Well, let's take a look at it:

no USB
no SD card slot
no Flash
Apple-approved apps only
blah blah blah

I can live without Flash, big fricken deal. If the iPad's sales are decent, people will just start creating iPad versions of their websites.

Apple-approved apps only - fine with me. I don't like sifting through all the crapware that's on the web anyway. I switched to a Mac for a mindless, stable system because I don't have time for computer maintenance on a regular basis. I want someone else to make sure a piece of software doesn't crash my computer.

USB and card slots would have been nice, especially since it starts with only 16GB of storage. Even my netbook has 160GB. I guess streaming the cloud are the key here.

In conclusion, all you iPad naysayers can go screw yourself.
