..a little bit late on this one don’t ya think?

At least it is free.

Google turns 7 and gives us a web search that is 1000 times the original index size…and “3 times larger than any other search engine.”

I love Google….I couldn’t imagine my life without it…thanks guys!

Also today, my friend I met thru Dawn and Drew, Rob aka Nlinus turns 27 today! Happy birthday bud.

After reading this review, I am placing my order for the Invisible Shield for the nano!

They spell out every question you would have and show detailed pictures of putting the shield on.

Order placed! Thanks Invisible Shield!

Sounds good to me, so what’s the catch?

Well the promotion runs Sept 25 - tomorrow Septembe 28. You have to buy $100 worth of Dockers Men’s apparel from JC Penny. Okay I don’t see a problem yet.

The rebate has to be post marked by Octobe 12th, and you get 3 months of TiVo free. The order form isn’t a bunch of confusing jargon, just simply mail it and your receipt to the address and 8-12 weeks you got a free TiVo Series 2 40 hour.

I think I’m going to head to JC Penny tonight and buy me some chinos…not that I see what the heck buying pleated khakis has to do with time shifting my tv, but who cares.

The last invite on eBay went for $46.37. I’ve just put mine on there…happy bidding!

I will say, I am loving the serivce, and wish I had enough invites to give to everyone. Since I cannot decide on who to give it to, I put it on eBay.

I highly recommend you try to win this auction. On top of the invite it comes with built in cool factor!* (digg story)

*Cool factor is subjective and not a guarantee. You could still be a total loser geek, but you will have one kick ass membership that no one else in town has.

Here is 2 EXCLUSIVE pics I got my hands on for a new Ped stand from ThoughtOut.biz specifically for the iPod nano.

They remind me of the PedUSB (which I recently got and should have a review up within a few days).

The pics are prototypes…what do ya think? It will be avaliable in BLACK as well.

BTW the best part: Estimated price of $11.99. SWEET!

If you didn’t know, I use Wordpress as my blogging software and cannot imagine life without it. It is at the heart of every single blog I currently run.

Okay let me explain a sec…Wordpress.org has blogging software that you put on your own hosted server for your site…100% customizible, and open source.

Wordpress.com is simply like Blogger.com is. You get a site at a Wordpress.com subdomain that THEY host.

So not minutes ago when I got my “Golden Ticket” from Wordpress.com.

The email read:

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away you entered your email address on http://wordpress.com/ to get a blog.

We’re now inviting small groups to use WordPress.com and your email address was selected today!

While you’re on a string of good luck it might be a good day to buy a lottery ticket.

Cheers,
The WordPress.com Team

With some details left out of course

I like it. It is the pefect blogging tool for personal bloggers. I have been reminded that it is an alpha beta release, and nothing is set in stone.

Please go check out my blog over there where I am writing on the experience and features they offer.

All in all it isn’t nearly as customizable as a regular WordPress blog, mainly the themes…you cannot customize from the 8 default they have. I’m sure that will be a feature to come.

I would LOVE to allow everyone to see the system, I cannot. I DO have 1 invite to give out. I cannot decide if I will eBay it or give it to someone. I am open to suggestions if someone is going to use it and make sure to leave feedback with WordPress for Photo Matt and the team over there.

I do once again want to say thank you (WP) for the invite, I will be sure to keep everyone up to date on additions and new features they offer.

BTW here is a link the the page, rss feed, Feedburner’d RSS Feed, and comment feed.
