Crutchfield Advisor - Satellite Radio - The Samsung Helix XM2go

Crutchfield Advisor - Satellite Radio - The Samsung Helix XM2go - This is a review of the new Samsung Helix I just purchased for Christmas with an XM Radio subscription. I really liked it until I got a dreaded "scanning files" message that it's now "stuck" on since I tried to transfer some MP3s to the unit this morning. I'm currently on my 4th technical support call. I guess I should have read this review first, thus I pass it onto all of you.

Me, ‘Person of the Year’? No thanks - Tech News & Reviews - MSNBC.com

Me, ‘Person of the Year’? No thanks - Tech News & Reviews - MSNBC.com -- I didn't really understand Time Magazine's recent selection of "YOU" as its "Person Of The Year." They seem to think that all this "social networking" stuff (from ebay to YouTube) has greatly empowered the everyday man to the point that we all set the agenda now over big media companies.

Yeah, right!

Though I can type this blog and post my opinions and thoughts "instantly," who really sees it that I can control? I still pray that my little website on the superbig information highway hits high enough on the various search engines for anyone really to find it beyond my family and friends.

So, when I read this article on msnbc.com, it so captured how I felt when I heard that Time picked "You" as its Person Of The Year. I agree with the author...NOT SO FAST!

MySpace users big targets for ID thieves - Yahoo! News

MySpace users big targets for ID thieves - Yahoo! News

Beware of social networking scams trying to get your secret passwords. I'm a devout Yahoo! 360 user, so I don't really use MySpace. I'm a real devoted fan of Yahoo! products.
