iWant an iPad »
CUBICLE - I know it's just a large iPhone and still not a real computer, but I want one~~~! So the iPad is coming out in a few more weeks, and of course we've all seen the iPad commercials during the Academy Award on Sunday night. Dang, I really don't have much spare money to spend like before, but I was really tempted to get my [...]
Gmail Addiction! »
CUBICLE - Just the other day I was talking to my wife about how I am struggling at work, and she reminded me of something so obvious to others but me! That's right, Gmail addiction! I wake up having to check it; turn on my computer at work to check it first thing in the morning; pause a bit at work periodically to check it; sign on in the [...]
Yummy Apple »
CUBICLE - Today I was reading about how this company iSuppli estimated that an iPad costs Apple about $219 to make, so there might be some price drop in the near future, even though now it's starting at $499. I remember waiting for the iPhone to drop from $599 when the first generation came out. When other devices were in the $400 or so, [...]

As we get used to Emailing people, some frustrating habits appear... 1. In-person > Phone [...]
Favorite Apps »
CUBICLE - I have 3 favorite apps in the cubicle, and without any one of them, my day wouldn't be complete... 1. Facebook: since my company blocked Facebook (such cruelty), the only way that I can stay in contact with the outside world (exaggeration...) is through the FB app on my iPhone. People are so busy nowadays, that we don't really [...]
LED TV »
CUBICLE - I've been hearing people talk about LED TV lately, and have thought it was strange having LED in a display since my impression of LED is more like those little light bulb-like things on test circuit boards, or on computer main boards. Since my job is related to displays, I figured I should look into this and find out what exactly [...]
Crossing the 7 »
CUBICLE - Lately I am reading a lot of news on Windows 7, and all the hype on the Internet is really making me want to check it out myself, too. In fact, I've seen the beta version at work a few months ago, but hey, playing around with the released version would be really awesome, too~ I think by now most people have heard about the [...]
