::About the Artist::

The Joy of Tech is a comic about technology and pop culture. We like to feature the people and events that are making tech news. We tend to focus on Apple news and events because they often affect the industry in general, and because we are longtime Mac users here at GeekCulture Headquarters. We create The Joy of Tech using Apple computers, mostly on our PowerBooks, running Mac OS X Tiger. We use software from Apple, Adobe, Macromedia, BBedit, and others, including Microsoft (yep, we do use Microsoft Office for Mac on occasion). Nitrozac uses a Wacom tablet to do her illustrations.

Insider Secrets

Tom Merrit

Working at CNET, I passed this tip along to CNET TV and was used in a “Insider Secrets” video. The great part at the end I got a shout out by Tom Merritt. Thanks…

Here’s the video http://www.cnettv.com/9742-1_53-32242.html

Macworld 2008

So working a few blocks away I went on my lunch break again. Nothing really to talk about, but the Skull Candy booth in Moscone West was kind of fun to visit. And they had free wristbands in pink…. Hey it’s for my daughter….

Griffin Earbuds

I got hooked up with the new Griffin TuneBuds mobile today for the iphone. I was expecting more companies to have headphones w/mic for the iphone since there is only a few out there. So i was happy to see that Griffin has one coming out soon. I tried them out on my bus ride home and it is hard for me to compare these to other rubber tipped earbuds since I have never tried any of them. They do cancel out 80% of the sound and I am not sure if I like that. I like to know whats going on most of the time. The sound was a little bit tinny and did not have a good scale in sound. I am used to the Apple ear buds and feel the Apple buds are more comfortable, but I think it is my opinion. For the price that they will be sold for ($39.99) I do think they are worth trying them out. They also come with a great case and 3 sizes of rubber tips. If anyone tries them out let me know what you think.tunebudsmobile_1-1.jpg

Macworld 2008

Went to Macworld today and for the most part it was a let down. Yes the Macbook Air is great but the vendors for the most part are not selling anything different from what the next vendor is selling. I did not find any really good deals either. I did get hooked up with Griffin earbuds which are not even out yet which was cool. So big shout out to griffin. I will give my feelings about them after this post. So enjoy the few photos I took at Macworld.
