Ok So it isn’t NEW but my Microsoft Wing ROCKS!

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Alright so as I have talked about before I do technical phone support for a data recovery company. Any who the deal is I do that from home, more often then not. I have to have the ability to email people while on the go and still have the ability to sync up with Outlook on my desktop. I also was going to be buying this as my personal cell phone, so I wanted all the cool stuff you can get in something like an iPhone without having to own a Mac product. (I don’t want to hear it .. I am anti-mac and that is that) So here is the deal, I can have this Wing through T-Mobile and it allows me to be able to run ActiveSync, which honestly installed with out a problem. With other PDA’s I have had it was always a headache getting the darn thing working with the PC. It has a 2.0 mega pixel camera, MP3 player, Microsoft Office Mobile, as well as the ability to be logged into 3 different Instant Messaging client. I would have to say though the coolest thing about it is the ability to one switch from T-Mobile Internet service to and WiFi hotspot, and two the integration of the media on the phone with all the applications. I can take a picture, bring it in to my viewer, edit it, and then send it in a message. With all the iPhone hype I just thought I would give you all an alternative.

Mythbusters Where Has All The Fun Gone?

So let’s start with I WAS a huge Myth Busters fan. I really couldn’t get enough of this show. The appeal of geeks having a show making a ton of cash doing geek stuff was just too much. I don’t currently watch the show anymore and I am going to give the reasons why. The very first reason might have to be loss of Scottie Chapman, who was just the coolest and had also been there since the beginning. The fact they didn’t even mention it and then replaced her with Grant, who is not a geek but just a dork, was kind of a let down. Now we have to watch Grant and Tory fawn over the most irritating TV personality to come along in awhile, Kari. Ya know I used to like her.. thought she really is a cool geek chick until I saw this, then I just thought.. what a hoe.. trying to play on geekz with being cheap. Now combine that with the fact that Adam and Jamie are not on the show as much, and lets be real, they are the reason to watch. Also combined with the fact they don’t do really dangerous stuff anymore, I mean really if I have to hear how they can’t do this or that because of insurance purposes anymore I might just barf.

Now the reason I am bringing this entire thing up is tonight is the Myth Busters new Discovery Channel Shark Week special, actually in 40 minutes I am going to sit and watch it. I hope this is a good show filled with ridiculous experiments that put Adam in REAL peril.. like the time he scorched off the hair on his body, not just another wanna be special effects show, if that is what I want to see I will go watch a movie with the money to give it to me.

 

Commonly asked Myspace Mobster Questions and Help

I would have to say that on a daily basis I get about 50 emails asking different questions about MySpace Mobster. A lot of the time these are the same question so I wanted to make a post to point people too and also so people have a place to post their questions.

Q. How do I grow my mob?

A. There is a lot of answers to this question but the easiest way I have found to cause some growth is to invite people to your mob with a lot of mobsters already, they will usually have a Myspace Friends Category that they will add you too. Once in that category you can see all the friends they have that also play mobster and are more than likely looking for more friend invites.

Myspace Mobster Mob Wide Bulletins Getting WICKED Irritating

Here is the deal people, I do care whatcha have to say but I also care about who attacked me, who punched me, and who put a hit on me. When we post all those bulletins straight to the Mobster API then a lot of the other things we want to know from that window are getting bumped off. I think the best thing that could be done would be for the coder of the plug in to separate it out. They should put bulletins in one window, attacks in another window, and mobsters who have been added in another. That would solve the problem of people getting frustrated about all the bulletins causing their damage to fall off. I think they should also remove it from posting a bulletin to our MySpace area personally that way we can go into Mobsters and see all the stuff to do with mobsters. I missed the birth of a friend’s baby with all the bulletins LOL. I have met a lot of new great friend because of Mobster, but on the other side some of the people on my friends are just other mobsters I don’t have contact with, I mean really how the hell I would talk to 700 people. So it would be nice if I could keep the “myspace” stuff separate from the “mobster” stuff. Let me know if you think I am wrong, also I know people in the know read this blog so post if you can think of anything else to improve.

Mobster, Heroes and Mafia Wars My now SUPER addiction

Ok so now I am lvl 26 in mobster on myspace I have upward of 100 friends and a ton of cash banked. I am sitting around waiting for more stamina and energy all the time and although I LOVE MOBSTER I don’t have anything to do in between. So I start looking around and due to my great new mobster friends I have been invited over and over again to mafia wars. This plug in is another awesome one. Want to know why, because it is EXACTLY like mobster, so if you had started mobster and did not really known what the hell you were doing this is great, gives you a fresh start so you don’t go wasting up those Godfather points and all. As for the whole Heroes thing well it rocks. Again because the setup is exactly like Mobster except now it is swords and spells and owning kingdoms. I belong to all three now and if you want to shoot me a friend invite at http://www.myspace.com/jacquibest/ I will be more than happy to add you to my friends and then send you invites for all the games I play. Also you can also look for lilraveybabe to be icein’ ya!

Normal Geekz Playing Rock Band

Ok so here is the deal I spend a lot of my time watching youtube videos of people playing Rock Band and Guitar Hero. The one trend that I have seen is that all these videos seem to be of people who are awesome at it, but what about us regular folks that are playing for the sheer fun of the game. That is why I wanted to make this video of me and my kids playing.

So to set the scene this is me, my 2 sons and my soon to be brother in law. My sister is the camera “person” and isn’t happy about it either.. She totally didn’t want to have to film us. We have been playing for about 3 hours now when we decide to get the camera out. I wanted to thank my kids and Andy for letting me film them and then put our silly asses on the internet, Read more

Myspace Mobster How To Get A Bigger Mob

Ok so last week I wrote about my addiction to this silly plug in. Now this week I will give you some insight on how to grow your mob. First things first I am going to give you a link to my personal myspace http://www.myspace.com/jacquibest next you need to just add me as a friend. After that I will send the mobster invite and add you to my Mobster Category under my friends. The category is all of my mob friends, you can add all of these people to your mob, some are easy with a simple add and some are using that silly CAPTCHA, either way all are using Mobster and will be more than happy to join your mob. Now here is the key to getting a huge gang going a lot of my mobsters keep a Mobster friend category as well. You can then go in to all of their mobster categories and add all of those people. There is a ton of new “groups” popping up on myspace for Mobster, but I have found they are not as good as the method listed above, I belong to a few of them and I haven’t seen many invite because of it. Also I like the idea of the whole mob being intertwined with each other kind of helps give you that MOBSTER feeling. An example of this would be one of my mob pals was having a problem with another guy, he posted a bulletin about that problem and we all whacked the guy! Anyway hope to see you in the gang soon and keep your eyes peeled for more USEFUL mobster info.

Confessions Of A Reality TV Junkie

Hi my name is Jacqui and I am a reality TV junkie. HAH! Ok so maybe it’s not that bad but it feels that way. My extreme favorites are American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance. On the other side I have been known to watch Big Brother, Hogan Knows Best, The Biggest Loser, Extreme Makeover, Kathy Griffin My Life On The D List, Fear Factor, and a few others that don’t deserve mention.

So, right now my biggie is So You Think You Can Dance. I am religious about it; tune in every Wednesday and Thursday. I have to say that although I am really enjoying this season, I loved last season SO much more. I enjoy this show a lot more then American Idol for a lot of reasons but here is my top 5.

Jesse Jackson and Obama, I love Drama Baby!

Ok so for this little blog, my politics mean nothing, because I think as Americans we can all pretty much agree on one thing. That the politicians are in it for THEM, and watching their drama is as entertaining if not MORE then watching any soap opera out there. Ok so I am sure by now we all know what happened. We have good Ol’ Jesse on camera, in his defense unknown to him, saying he wants to “cut his nuts out”.

I wish I had a camera on my own face when I watched this video for the first time. I could care less anymore what it does to the political climate, but the sheer comedic value of this clip. I mean really Jesse even takes his little hand and makes a stabbing motion like he is actually cutting Obama’s nuts off. It was like 2 am 2 nights ago when I was watching it and I kept backing up the slider to watch it over and over. I had a gut ache by the time I was done.

Trillian is Awsome for Instant Messaging With All Message Services

Ok so I have AIM and ICQ and Yahoo Messenger, which if you have to use multiple messaging services you, know how annoying this can be. First of all nothing personal against the three, it is just that who wants all those services running all the time. As time has gone on I have wanted to condense them, so I started looking around for a good solution. I soon stumbled upon Trillian, what a great piece of software. I have all of my messaging set up in it. It was able to easily import all of my contacts from each service. I don’t seem to get as many of the funky pop-ups I was getting with Yahoo. They offer both a free version and a professional version. Right now, the free version is all I need but I am thinking about getting the pro version. If anyone has this let me know what you think about it? Oh yeah, another totally cool thing about it is you can check the respective email address with it. So now I can just look in there to get my yahoo mail. I have wanted to dump that email address for years, but I have had it forever. So it is cool cause now I don’t have to make a special trip to check it.
