I’ve moved away from Google FeedBurner. So, it’s time to update your feed URL. If your feed URL is http://christopherprice.net/feed/ then you’re all set. If not, you need to update to that URL. I’ll keep the old FeedBurner setup working, but you may be delayed by as much as several hours to get news. Yeah, […]
I will start this article by saying that we don’t know everything that will be in iCloud just yet. However, I will say that I am disappointed at the pricing that has emerged on other web sites (here’s just one for example). At double the pricing for Amazon’s Cloud Drive, I can’t say I’ll be […]
I’ve been going to CTIA Wireless Expo for many years now. This will be the first year since I started attending that PhoneNews.com does will have any presence at the show. And, as you may have noted, PhoneNews.com will be suspending the display of advertisements from Google AdSense. We took a careful look at CTIA […]
I’ll keep this one brief. I’ve noticed issues with older Google Analytics tags. They report receiving data, but they aren’t working right. Some of the issues are really sporadic. So, just update your Google Analytics tags if you aren’t using the latest generation. That appears to be the cure-all. Mkay?
While I suggested mainstream techies avoid Flash 10.1 Beta 1, the new beta is much better. 1080p YouTube now works flawlessly in Windows and Mac OS X. It’s actually quite impressive, especially considering Apple won’t let folks author QuickTime X plug-ins. I do have to take this moment to warn Apple that 2014 could very […]
I had to vaporize all cookies in Google Chrome today, because Google kept defaulting to www.google.com.pr instead of allowing me to switch back to www.google.com. It appears this problem is mostly limited to anyone (and everyone) that pulls up Google while traveling to Puerto Rico. When you travel, Google loads up the in-country version of […]
I will now posit a logical stream of reasoning that explains how Google Chrome OS is, in reality, Android for Desktops. Google Chrome and Android share a common browser platform and screen drawing API. Google Chrome OS uses the same on-screen drawing system as Chrome and Android. Google Chrome OS is Linux combined with Chrome. […]
eBay has gotten rid of the ability to give buyer’s negative feedback at the end of an auction. I held back my dismay from public view… until now. For the third time, in a single week, I’ve had an international buyer back out due to shipping. They didn’t run the shipping calculator until after purchase. […]
If you’ve been using Google Gears for Mac, you might have noticed sometimes that the Gears setup for a particular web site… sometimes vanishes. You have to re-enable Gears for each web site which you had approved it for. Why is this? Well, Google is deploying the Gears setup inside of /Users/yourname/Library/Cache (or, ~/Library/Cache as […]
I saw this one coming a million miles away… and today, it happened. You may have noticed that PhoneNews.com stopped using AdSense Referrals quite a long time ago. Well, today, Google announced they were shutting down the program. It will be replaced by the Google Affiliate Network, formerly DoubleClick Performics. This is all part of […]
