Battle of the Fitness Websites: RunKeeper

No Comments

Now that I’m almost an iPhone user, I can finally take advantage of the multitude of Apps that help track fitness and exercise.

The first App I’m looking at is RunKeeper.  There is a free version and a Pro, but this “review” is strictly for the free one.

The interface is nice and clean, and very well organized.  The app itself (not shown in the video) is easy to use.  Select the activity (running, cycling , or whatever) and press start! That’s it!  RunKeeper tracks your pace via GPS.  When your activity is done, press stop, then save, and it is uploaded to the website.  Honestly, that’s about all there is to it.

Nullriver MediaLink Walkthrough

No Comments

Welcome to my first Playstation 3 post.

I finally gave in to temptation and bought this media powerhouse.  And I’m hooked!

I love video games and the PS3 delivers gaming in all its 1080p glory.  A blue-ray DVD player is built directly into the system as well.  But one of the features I’m most excited about is streaming all my digital media from my Power Mac to my television and surround sound.

Nullriver’s MediaLink is the link between my Mac and PS3.  It does give me “iLife in my living room”!

Top 10 Mellow Albums of 2009

No Comments

I love heavy metal and hard rock.  I listen to those genres of music probably 90% of the time.  But when I do want to mellow out and listen to something different, these were the bands I turned to for 2009.

Top 10 Most Disappointing Albums of 2009*

No Comments

*IMHO of course.  I realize that some people probably love these albums.  I love all of these bands and know they have created some very excellent music at some point in their career.  That said, the albums in my review are probably good in their own right, but didn’t live up to the hype I placed on them as I anticipated their release.  If you disagree, please leave a comment and let me know why!!
