  • Why I Don’t Cling to My Mobile Device

    The digital culture has made phone technology an integral part of people’s lives. Driving on a busy street, you’ll often see people abandoning common sense and laws just to check out the latest messages on their phones. People in dense zones where space is a premium and walking is the norm, you’ll often time see…

  • Google: Don’t Be Evil, But We Do Harm? (The End of YouTube?)

    One of the so-called core philosophies in the way Google operates is their motto “Don’t be evil.” It was an idea adopted early on in the company’s lifespan. On top of that many of their product decisions was engendered through their “10 things” principles. As the company has grown to the mega-power over the years,…

  • Twitter: Where It’s Real Value is Derived

    Today, Twitter made its debut on the NYSE. Critics point to a lack in revenue or profit in the young company. But many of these people in my estimation lack any insight into the real tech market and why Twitter is such a power house not just as a tech company but in terms of…

  • Combining Livestreaming/Twitch and Social Media

    I’ve written several articles on the high level ideas of becoming a Twitch broadcaster and getting into the world of livestreaming for gaming. One thing that I’ve noticed though is that there’s quite a few people who livestream but don’t really understand many of the social media tools out there. They might use systems like…

  • LinkedIn: Why Endorsements Are Full of Shit

    When I originally saw how LinkedIn created their own version of the Facebook “Like” button, I thought that they did some worthwhile. However, over time I started to notice a trend: the endorsements I received from colleagues actually are irrelevant.

  • Website Review: CougarLife

    A friend of mine mentioned that his friend ended up using a dating site for Cougars called CougarLife and had some marginal success. I heard about it here and there but never really bothered with it since typically those sites end up being scams or having a very shady component to them. Since it was…

  • Website Review: Eat 24 Hour

    A while back I caught a video by Jenna Marbles where she talked about some of the sins she committed during her Christmas break. One of the poor decisions she admitted to was order Chinese delivery to her home at odd hours of the day. Although what she did to herself probably wasn’t a great…

  • Why Facebook Will No Longer Be As Relevant in 3-5 Years (in its Current State)

    I read an article earlier which talked about how many key executives are departing. The article goes on to discuss how Facebook has been slowly losing its luster following the decline after its IPO. With the reports of the NSA spying on Americans as well as how teenagers have slowly been moving away from Facebook…

  • Computer Tech: Why I Refuse to Buy Dell and Alienware Anymore

    At one time both Dell and Alienware were held in high esteem both as solid computer makers and (in the case of Alienware) the top-of-the-line gaming system manufacturer. Once I started speaking with people about Alienware, I came to realize that I made a huge mistake in picking up this turd of a system. A…

  • Game Streamers and My Pet Peeves

    Normally, I try to say positive things about streamers I enjoy following. However, I was one particular person (who I won’t name here) and some of his actions really made me disgusted. The issue was over giveaways and the idea of being disqualified for giveaways for those who leave the chat for whatever reason. I…
