random thoughts…

– I’ve concluded that as I rarely carry an iPod anymore unless I’m using it to out an accessory, and since there are no games for my always-with-me iPhone, all those iPod games have been released just to taunt me.

– You know you’re out of touch with pro basketball when one team trades several players and several draft picks just to acquire another player, and it’s someone you haven’t even heard of.

– My frustration with the latest version of iPhoto hasn’t abated now that I’ve spent a full month with it – I’m actually more frustrated now. I use iPhoto quite a bit for cropping and resizing photos for both the iProng.com product reviews and the photography in iProng Magazine, and I now have to budget slightly more time for both tasks because of how crappy iPhoto has suddenly become at doing the same basic tasks the previous versions all did so well. I say this without a hint of melodrama or overreaction: if I could downgrade to the previous iPhoto without having to completely re-do my photo library in the process, I’d do it without thinking twice. And that’s a sad condemnation of what has been, for the past five or so years, one of the best consumer-level multimedia software tools ever made.

– My SuperBowl prediction: it’ll be the Giants and the Patriots. Wait, what? We already knew that much? Dang!

– I still can’t believe Santana has been traded to the Mets. I didn’t even know the Mets were in need of a lead guitarist.
