After last night’s game against Detroit everyone needs to read this:

After the explanation on Dwight’s Blog its clear the refs like Detroit better. So many empty seats, so many empty houses, worse unemployment. I think the Pistons is the only thing Detroit has. Meh

Yes, exactly as the title says. MTV knows how bad their awards shows are tanking in the ratings department. They KNOW Kanye didn’t win any awards so they could “kick him out” after the incident. It was all a well orchestrated plan by MTV only they didn’t let Taylor know so they could get the real reaction. How can MTV have a Video Music Award when they don’t even play videos, yet they wonder why their show loses ratings every year. I also think Kanye’s “He’s new to fame” excuse card has run out as well, he so eats fish sticks.

That’s it, daed just needs to die in a fire. diaf I just want to .goo daed diaf and have this come up! YAY!

5. Free text messaging if you have a data plan – We all know text messages are essentially free to you, we’re paying for data. This is data.
4. $30 Shared Data Plan – There are many couples with iPhones and charging them both $30 for data is just excessive. This would include unlimited text messages (See #5)
3. $20 Data Plan - This worked with the Original iPhone there was really no need to change this. Also with unlimited text (See #5)
2. Get MMS and Tethering working already, jeez this just makes you look silly. $5/mo to Tether $10/mo Shared
1. Let everyone who currently has an iPhone upgrade to the 3GS if they desire at the subsidized price. You can lock these people into another 2 year contract I don’t see why you wouldn’t take the oppertunity to do this. Especially with all the bad press and the fact that every doesn’t want Apple to renew their agreement with you. This just makes sense.

You need to give us so much for our money that we overlook your glaring short comings.

Apple App Store Icon

We all know, or should know, what the Apple App store is so I won’t get into explaining that. With the recent HUGE #AppleFail its approval process has been brought back into the spotlight. There is a strange disconnect between what Apple says it will approve and what they actually wind up approving. Apple needs to revamp this process and revamp it quickly.

My idea is this. Apple has the biggest group of the hardest core fans. Why don’t they make the first step of app approval a social experience. Bring in digg/reddit style voting, apps that move up the list the fastest or seem the coolest get a final review, also by volunteers, and get pushed into the store. You can tweak this idea as well. Instead of the voting method you could just get volunteers (I am sure you’d have no problem doing this) who would sign NDA’s and they would review and approve apps possibly pushing some to a peer group for a final review before getting pushed to the store. Since no one really knows what’s involved in the current process I am not even sure if this is any different that what takes place today. I just know this. The process needs to change and change quickly.

Thanks to aGorilla at reddit:

About the current CEO:

Yes, I’m contradicting a post I made yesterday. I watched the full hearings on C-Span today, and learned a hell of a lot from them. Yeah, I changed my mind, but that’s what I do when I learn that the facts don’t match my perception.

This makes a lot of sense and well why I think the amount of pay is a lot its a very small part of the monies they’ve received.

Etan said I needed to have more here since he linked to me from his blog. So here is something. YAY! Follow me on twitter if you’d like bigdave914. I might make this into more of an Orlando Local’s blog since I have a lot to complain about. Like why does OUC raise rates yet there are always way to many lights on in their new building even at 1:30 am so I know its not cleaning crews. Yah.. WOO!

Really, I do…

These were pretty funny the rap was funnier than the intro but you check them out for yourself:

“It’s not based on any particular data point,” a Treasury spokeswoman told Forbes.com Tuesday.
“We just wanted to choose a really large number.”

WOW! I mean OMG!
