Tech Rave: Facebook is now much bigger than the United States
http://techraveblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/facebook-is-now-much-bigger-than-united.html
Facebook is now much bigger than the United States. Remember how we thought "The Matrix" was just science fiction. Well when Facebook 8.0 comes out in 50 years we might all be hooked up to machines and getting used like a AA battery. Why? Because Facebook is spreading like a freakin' virus.

Congrats to the king of nerds. I don't know if I'd call this an achievement. I'd put this in the category of "what the hell have you done with your life? A Taiwanese man has been named the first ever person to successfully "complete" World of Warcraft, collecting the game's staggering 986 Achievements to effectively do everything there is to do in the hugely successful MMO.

Tech Rave: Bing eats up Yahoo, still way behind Google
http://techraveblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/bing-eats-up-yahoo-still-way-behind.html
Bing eats up Yahoo, still way behind Google. Bing is continuing to grow with its market share in the search engine market, taking most of its traffic from Yahoo. Which is something that brings up an interesting dilemma since Microsoft will be entering into a partnership with Yahoo. Akkkkkkwwwwaaaarrrrd. NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) - Once the world's online search leader, Yahoo's share has sharply declined, putting it in danger of losing its relevance in a market increasingly dominated by Google. The internet...

Tech Rave: Making counterfeit Apple parts does not pay
http://techraveblog.blogspot.com/2009/11/making-counterfeit-apple-parts-does-not.html
Making counterfeit Apple parts does not pay. Word of advice to tech companies, don't try to make knockoff Apple computers. Or power adapters. Because they'll go after you. Apple is taking another company to court, once again over knock-off hardware. Media Solutions Holdings will face Cupertino in court over making power adapters for laptops, at least one model of which allegedly violates an Apple patent. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Tech Rave: Wii sales down for Nintendo, but still higher than the PS3 and Xbox
http://techraveblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/wii-sales-down-for-nintendo-but-still.html
Wii sales down for Nintendo, but still higher than the PS3 and Xbox. Even though every hardcore gamer (without a girlfriend) will tell you how much the Wii stinks because its graphics aren't as sparkly, the truth of the matter is it's selling a whole heck of a lot more than the other two "superior" systems. The Wii outsold Sony's PS3 550,00 to 440,000; Microsoft (NSDQ:MSFT) has not yet published its figures, but said they were "double" the previous November week's, according to vgchartz.com. Acer surpass...

Tech Rave: December 2009
http://techraveblog.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Windows 7 fails to take down the Apple monster. Or maybe its just a sign that there's room enough in the marketplace for two types of computers. While the PC market has been enjoying an a spike in sales thanks to the release of Windows 7, Apple has also seen growth in sales . meaning that the new Windows probably hasn't converted a lot of people to come over to the dark side. Shouldn't you expect this though? Bing eats up Yahoo, still way behind Google. NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) - Once the world's onli...

Media Chow: This weekend in terrible movies
http://mediachow.blogspot.com/2009/11/this-weekend-in-terrible-movies.html
Monday, November 30, 2009. This weekend in terrible movies. Thanks to the pathetic single bookworms of the world, Twilight reigns supreme at the box office, taking in 42 million over the weekend. This basically ensures that guys around the country are now going to need a pale complexion and fangs in order to get laid. Crap. The Box-Office Top Five. 1 "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" ($42.5 million). 2 "The Blind Side" ($40.1 million). 3 "2012" ($18 million). 4 "Old Dogs" ($16.8 million). Just South of North.

Tech Rave: Good sales in the month of October for computer chips
http://techraveblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/good-sales-in-month-of-october-for.html
Good sales in the month of October for computer chips. Any increase in business is a good one, and the computer chip business had some excellent news to report, it was a whiz-bang month for them in sales. I wonder why October is so strong, is it computer manufacturers gearing up for the holiday season? Or are ghosts notorious for buying semiconductors? I'm just curious, that's all.

Tech Rave: Acer surpasses Dell in PC shipments
http://techraveblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/acer-surpasses-dell-in-laptop-shipments.html
Acer surpasses Dell in PC shipments. With the Christmas season upon us and probably more than a few people wanting to get one for the Holiday season, it's going to be a bear's market out there. And apparently, traditional power Dell is losing ground. I wonder how much netbooks play a part in this as it seems those are becoming more popular. Anyways, be sure to put one of those on your wish list. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Subscribe in a reader. Just South of North. Please visit our sponsors.
