Give Me Your Eyes

I don’t usually browse around YouTube, but I was at a youth conference a few weeks ago and the speaker played this video. I had heard this song before, but I really never dove into the lyrics. Upon doing so, I think it’s a great song. It could be sung as a prayer or just a reminder to take the time and don’t get into our clamshells when we see something that we could help with. If we see things through the eyes of God, then...

Toshiba Thrive 10.1 Tablet

Toshiba Thrive 10.1 Tablet

So I was walking through Staples the other day and I saw the Toshiba Thrive on display. It has a 10.1 inch screen so I decided to take a look. Priced at $400 I wasn’t expecting it to have the responsiveness of the ipad, but it really did. I would seriously put this on my possible list for tablets because of the price and responsiveness. However, I hear that ipad may be putting out a model priced at the same range, so I may just wait a...

Because of his efforts, the lives saved are measured in hundreds of thousands. It boggles...

They’d have to spend more money policing it, or come up with some magic thing that detects copyrighted material. It seems like the main focus of this...

Blackberry Playbook dropped to $200

So I saw this ad. I was shocked. That’s over half off. Then I though. The playbook is basically the Kindle Fire. Kindle Fire’s are $200. Makes sense they’d have to drop them that low to compete. Question is, is the Fire better than the...

Kindle Fire!!!!

Kindle Fire!!!!

They hype has been immense surrounding the Kindle Fire. I really hope the screen is as responsive as the iPad, because if it is, I believe it could really contend well. At a basement price of $199 to the iPad, sales should be through the roof if it performs. The only drawback I see for it is that Kindle has the name in books. This really isn’t a book reader. It doesn’t have the special E-ink screen, so it’s not going to...
