what it is...

Welcome to My Tech Life. I spend so much time reading blogs about everyone else lifes, and gadgets, and whatnot that I finally decided to knock one out myself. Makes sense right? I’m a complete and total card carrying techno-geek and proud of it LOL I’m also a father of a beautiful young lady who is turning into a techophile in her own right. I have been into technology ever since I had my first computer, a TRS-80. It was love at first sight! I am into everything from computers to game consoles, to handheld devices and everything in between. My current passion is wireless tech and cellphones. So basically, this blog will be about tech i find interesting, how it affects my life, and my life in general. Sound interesting? I hope so. Ciao! a.don.is

the bio...

Michigander. I keep trying to leave this damn state and keep coming back to it. Something about it keeps pulling me back. Been here most of my years, with a small stay in Chicago, and short stops in other places.

I'm a divorced father of one beautiful young lady who is growing up way fatser than I want her too LOL Got married for the wrong reasons, so the outcome was predictable. Its all good though. We lasted 10 years and had some really good years. We get along decently now.

Currently in a rebuild phase of my life. It's going slowly but surely. Stay tuned... things can only get better right?

i love my ipod touch!!


yes.  you heard me right.  i love my ipod touch.  btw the way...its an ipod touch, not an itouch LOL


so anyway, this gadget is in-cred-ible!  i poted to get the ipod touch instead of the iphone for 2 reasons.  First - my Helio Ocean has every feature the iphone has MINUS the touch screen.  I really like my Ocean.  no plans on switching anytime soon.  Secondly - the ipod touch is smaller and sexier.  And I primarily wanted an ipod, not a new phone anyway.

wi-fi is awesome on it.  my laptop time has been cut by over 60% cuz i can do most of what i usually would do on my laptop, on my ipod now!  check email, myspace, facebook, blog etc.  i can even watch youtube and other videos.  surfing the web isnt a 100% experience but it is definately do-able.

right now i have about 2gb of music, 1 movie, 5 various video clips, 1 episode of family guy, 1101 photos on it.  Still have over 5 gb left LOL

Don't get me started on the app store and all the FREE apps.  I have been through about 50 or more so far.  I have about 15 or so that are still on my ipod.  the games are great.  some are almost PSP quality.  there's also alot of crap out there.  just gotta take you time and find the good stuff.

bottom line - if you want an ipod, and dont need 160gb worth of storage... get the touch! you wont be sorry.

back again...


i know i know...

i have no excuse.  life has been just busy enough to keep me away from this blog.  i don't have much of anything to complain about.  Just bought 2 tires for my truck and caught an awesome deal on them from Walmart.  Of course now my "service engine soon" light has come on.  What does that even mean?  Oh well it will have to wait until next Friday LOL

my kid is doing good in school.  she was on the swim team this fall.  plans on going out again for the spring season. i love how she loves sports.  she'll play anything!

recently had another fire at work.  a decently bad one.  lost one apartment totally.  no one was injured thank God.  lots of smoke damage.  very surreal experience.

anyway, I'm back so I'm going to try to update more frequently.  no promises LOL

peace...
