"On balance, though, Microsoft's done a fine job integrating Facebook's key features and giving Twitter an even more elegant interface than the service's native browser-based one.

Where's Sony in all this? The company just announced on its official PlayStation blog that upcoming firmware update v3.10 will add Facebook and Twitter functionality to the PS3's XMB interface."

Taipei 101, famous for being one of the world’s tallest buildings, is set to get some major eco-upgrades in an effort to save money, reduce its impact, and gain the much coveted title of “World’s Tallest Green Building.” In 2007, the Burj Dubai surpassed Taipei 101 in terms of height, but the Taiwanese building won’t give up the fight, throwing down $1.8 million in energy efficiency upgrades, which are expected to yield $20 million annually in savings and make it the Earth’s greenest building that’s also closest to the heavens!

Looks like Apple's new software update is here to help with all those bugs and errors we all keep getting lately, including me! I only just posted something about my "Kernel Panic" screen this morning on Twitter, Brightkite and Facebook. Let's hope that the update will be as PCWorld says and that it will fix everything.

Oh, one more thing. If you are on a Hackintosh, I wouldn't do this upgrade because Apple is killing the support for Atom.

USB 3.0 and 3d TV are sounding pretty nifty, much less AR (augmented reality) contact lenses? Wondering wear haptic tech and voice recognition come into play with all of this?

You may have seen this list in the November issue of PC World but, I want to toss my thoughts (or the lack thereof) on some.


1. OVERRATED: Touch interface (iPhone 3G) - UNDERRATED: A good keyboard (Sidekick 2008)
I kinda agree on this. Touch screens may be easier and the new thing to replace a mouse now that it's coming to computers but, it's way better to have some kind of keyboard. A PHYSICAL keyboard.

2. OVERRATED: The Wii - UNDERRATED: The PSP
Is it possible a Wii can be overrated when it's just about impossible to even get one after it came out in what, 2006? Possible. To me, the PSP is ok as an mp3 player, which is how I use mines, but, the games are.... "eh".

3. OVERRATED: Mini-notebooks - UNDERRATED: Ultraportable laptops

4. OVERRATED: iTunes downloads - UNDERRATED: Pandora and Slacker
I have a Pandora account and it's a nice service. I do agree iTunes is overrated. People now are being to dependent on getting music from there. *COUGH*torrents*COUGH*

5. OVERRATED: Facebook - UNDERRATED: Multiply
Never heard of or used Multiply but i want to know is why MySpace wasn't included as overrated?

6. OVERRATED: iPod Touch - UNDERRATED: Zune
Just about anything Applewise is overrated but, I think the Zune is slightly stupid. No reason why. I just do.

7. OVERRATED: Google Apps  - UNDERRATED: OpenOffice 3.0

8. OVERRATED: Photoshop CS3 - UNDERRATED: Paint.NET
Paint.NET = MS Paint with more options

9. OVERRATED: XP - UNDERRATED: Vista
Wrong. It's just... wrong! Vista is shit so, how is it underrated?

10. OVERRATED: Streaming video - UNDERRATED: Blu-ray DVD
