Twelve Days of Christmas, Holiday Gift Ideas: Stuffed Stockings

By matt ~ Posted December 12, 2009 - 3:30am

The holidays are upon us. Black Friday and Cyber Monday are both over, and the December rush has begun. Whether you're shopping online, through retailers like Amazon.com, Overstock.com, or offline in retail outlets such as Wal*Mart or Target you can be a smart consumer. By using sites like PriceGrabber or Google Product Search or mobile applications like ShopSavvy (Android & iPhone) you can be sure you're getting a good deal.

Of course, the best place to start is to look at who you're buying for, and how much you're willing to spend on them. But to get you started, I've thrown together a list of some of the bigger consumer products of the year. Ranging from the cheaper stocking stuffers, to the more expensive presents this list has a little bit of everything, although it's definitely for the geekier folk.

Google Chrome for Mac Review

By adam ~ Posted December 9, 2009 - 8:12pm

So Google just launched Chrome for Mac. I've been very excited for this day and have been waiting for it for a long time. I headed over and downloaded the Beta.

Google Lolz

Installed and launched. It's fast. I'd dare say it's faster than Safari, which is quite an accomplishment. The first page that displayed was Google's home page. It prompted me to install Chrome, which I thought was quite amusing.
