iPhone vs. Droid

Humor, Software Industry December 14th, 2009

iphone-vs-motorola-droid-500x362

I found the following comparison between the iPhone and the Droid ads hilarious.

Especially, the following Droid bullets:

  • It is fast and it despises aesthetics.
  • It is packaged inside missiles launched by stealth jets. (*)
  • It is a robot and should mostly be handled by other robots.
  • Droid is to be used with robotic hands in a low-lit hi-tech laboratory or warehouse.

Actually, in one of the ads they say they Droid is like a Scud, a soviet missile that’s not known for its accuracy…

In any case, I’ve used an Android device before (the Samsung Galaxy) and I can’t really find anything good to say about the device or the Android OS (and its Apps Market).
I can’t believe there are people in the blogsphere calling the Galaxy and Droid an iPhone alternative…

Playing with the Windows 7 Fish

Humor, Software Industry February 7th, 2009

I just finished installing Windows 7 Beta on my home machine to find a fish swimming on my desktop:

Windows 7 Beta Default Desktop

But not just any fish, its a Siamese fighting fish, also knows a “betta fish” (or just “betta”).
A subtle Microsoft joke? Hope it does a better job selectively breeding this one (and get rid of some mutations… err… SKUs) …

Keep Believing!

Humor October 11th, 2008

I don’t get it. A bunch of tech ‘elites’ partying out in Cyprus made a funny video and suddenly they’re turned scapegoats for the entire web industry?

I guess they’re to blame in the housing led recession and over leveraged financials led by bank managers…

Oh well…

What Possible Harm Can One Insane Mutant Tentacle Do?

Gaming, Humor January 28th, 2008

Tal just triggered a burst of nostalgia when he posted a link to Day of the Tentacle’s, my all-time favorite game, intros.

If you haven’t played the game, or worse, don’t know what the hell I’m talking about, you’re missing out on the best games ever produced. You don’t this kind of quality anymore… sad…
I’ve already voiced my opinion about abandonwares before and getting back to that post, I really wonder how this game would look&feel on a new platform like the iPhone.
Any iPhone owner up for shooting a quick video? Yossi (could be a topic for your show ;) ) ? Please… :-)

Don’t these two videos just make you want to download ScummVM and play?
