cutting the cord

Posted by matthew on 06 Dec 2011 / 17 Comments

The Deci­sion For the bet­ter part of a year, I have been eye­balling our cable bill. Well, maybe it’s best to clar­ify, because “cable bill” is a lit­tle deceiv­ing. Prob­a­bly like many of you, I have signed up for a bun­dle of ser­vices from a local cable provider – RCN. The bun­dled pack­age includes cable, […]

a surprising realization

Posted by matthew on 25 Oct 2011 / 2 Comments

Dis­claimer: This post is writ­ten purely from the per­spec­tive of a self-professed nerd that fol­lows tech­nol­ogy rather closely.   There are just too many smart­phones hit­ting the mar­ket — specif­i­cally Android devices.

Posted by matthew on 12 Mar 2011 / 1 Comment

This is the new setup in my home office. Who woulda thunk that I would be rockin’ not one, but two Apple com­put­ers? I guess that’s the beauty of the human mind. It’s always capa­ble of change.
