I just wanted to throw this up here. My partner blog is looking to raise enough funds to purchase an Apple iPad. They plan on making some iPad cases with the funds as well.

On my way to northern Indianapolis the other day I passed by a billboard that had a surprising image plastered on it. I was driving so it was rather difficult to get a picture at the same time, but I managed. The billboard belongs to none other than our webhost. Hostgator. I thought this was pretty crazy!
Hostgator is expanding big time, so it’s no surprise they have to advertise. I really didn’t expect to see anything like this around here in Indianapolis. Hooray for green hosting!
If they pique your interest, definitely grab a cheap hosting plan. Hostgator has been great to us over the last couple years, so I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for affordable webhosting.
The folks over at Redmond have finally decided to unlock those USB ports on the Xbox 360. April 6th 2010, Microsoft will release a software update for the Xbox 360. The update will enable the console to see USB mass storage drives! You will have the ability to move media to the drive or to the 360. The catch 22 is that only 16 gigabytes are supported per external disk. You can use two USB devices at once, but each can only be 16 gigs in size. Kind of a bummer if you ask me, but it’s a start.
Microsoft will be partnering with SanDisk for a branded drive in May that will come preconfigured for the Xbox 360.

Let’s face it. Aren’t we all tired of seeing black DSLRs? These fine folks over at DigitalRev sure are. They decided to paint their Nikon D90 a nice pink/magenta.
Check it out.
Nothing is more aggravating than recording a video and then finding out later that your video is ruined due to an overly bright recording light. With the Kodak Zi8 pocket HD camera, this problem seems to happen quite often. You cannot record in low light or record any glossy type surfaces due to the record light being so bright. All of the videos have a red tint or a red dot right in the center of them.
Fed up with the red cast and red dots in my videos, I decided to do something about it. I was going to put tape over the light but then I realized, tape would eventually come off and then it’d leave a sticky residue on the camera. So the next best thing to do was to paint the darn thing! I didn’t want to paint the outside because I figured it’d be more work than what it is and it’d also take away from the over all appearance of the device. I found out you can remove the lens cover and gain access to the light post from within the lens cover.

Nothing annoys me more than having new features added to applications and not having the ability to optionally control said “feature”. In my opinion Firefox 3 is guilty of this. I do not enjoy the new tab button that is placed next to the browser tabs in Firefox 3. There is no good way to disable the button from the preferences or even through the about:config panel.
There is however a simple plugin that allows you to disable the new tab button with ease.
