I Finally Gave AT&T the Finger (and My iPhone, Too) - March 19th, 2010

About three months ago, I decided that I was officially sick of AT&T. It wasn’t just their crappy cell-service, and it wasn’t just their extremely hit-or-miss customer service that really pushed me over the edge, either; it was the highway robbery they call a monthly bill. I was paying upwards of $100 a month simply [...]

What Must be Said: Apple, Google, AT&T, and Me Being Right. - August 31st, 2009

I don’t like to brag. I hate braggarts, and I hate feeling like one. That doesn’t stop me from committing this post to indulging in some serious self-appreciation, as well as reiterating my previous points on this issue in a “how’s your face feel” fashion towards those who would disagree.

My fears were indeed confirmed as he [...]

Apple and Google: A Lovers' Quarrel. - July 29th, 2009

Recently, I posted about the kibosh Apple put on Google’s Voice app for the iPhone, leaving it a web-app like Latitude. It turns out, Latitude itself was also meant to have its own native app, which was summarily put to death as Voice’s was. I’m seeing a great deal of ranting and raving about AT&T’s [...]

[Updated] AT&T Picks a Fight… With 4chan - July 27th, 2009

It’s hard to say at this point exactly what the brass at AT&T were thinking. Apparently they’ve decided the best reaction to DDoS attacks targeting 4chan is to completely block access to the site’s affected boards. The move affects users on their landline networks only. I don’t think it’s necessary to go into too much [...]
