SHOW #035 - NerdBoyTV WIRED: On Slingbox, XM Radio, and now Yahoo! Live
I am sooooooooo TOTALLY wired this morning: I'm watching Slingbox TV on an old XP computer, listening to Casey Kasem's American Top 40 of the 80's on XM Radio, and trying out Yahoo! Live on my laptop. Obviously, I'm having a "nerd-version" of Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) . Hope you're having a nice Sunday!

SHOW #034 - NerdBoyTV Broadcast: April 5, 2008
In this episode of NerdBoyTV, Ryan Yee shares an "unbelievable" story of German T-Mobile's legal threat against a poor little blogger using the same "magenta" color as their logo (ridiculous, but true), introduces Samsung's 3G Instinct phone (hmmmm, a possible iPhone killer?), looks at wasteful tech habits that are oh so not eco-friendly, and how to possibly win your case for telecommuting in this age of skyrocketing gas prices!
Deutsche Telekom to Engadget: We Own The Color Magenta Gadget Lab from Wired.com: "Ryan Block of Engadget assures us that this is not an early April Fool gag. Deutsche Telekom, owners of T-Mobile in Germany, has sent a letter to the gadget blog demanding that it stop using the color magenta."
Samsung's 3G Instinct takes on the iPhone : Ben Patterson : Yahoo! Tech: "With its sleek design, flashy menus, haptic feedback, and full-on 3G access, this touchscreen delight for Sprint users looks to be one of the strongest iPhone competitors to date. Read on for my hands-on impressions."
Everyday Ecotech: Wasteful Tech Habits that Chap My Hide - GoodCleanTech: "It was bound to happen. Sooner or later, I was due to go Andy Rooney on you poor readers and vent about the tech habits that drive me crazy. My goal here is not just to wax cantankerous, but to tell you straight out: Don't do any of these things."
How To Win Your Case For Telecommuting: "With gas prices soaring toward $4 a gallon, a solution seems obvious: skip the commute. U.S. drivers travel an average of about 15 miles, one way, to work. Working from home a few days each week would be the quickest route to relief at the pump. It would ease pressure on clogged roadways, too. But telecommuting appears to be stalled in the driveway."
