slotMusic

Published on Monday, September 22, 2008

Music, Retail and Tech Leaders to Offer “slotMusic™”: High Quality, DRM-Free MP3 Music on microSD™ Cards. slotMusic cards enable consumers to instantly and easily enjoy music from their favorite artists without being dependent on a PC or internet connection. Users simply insert the slotMusic card into their microSD-enabled mobile phone or MP3 player to hear the music – without passwords, downloading or digital-rights-management interfering with their personal use.

SanDisk has released this news on their new slotMusic cards - albums available on microSD cards. This idea seems messy to me and destined to be a flump. Would you buy slotMusic cards?

Twitter

We’re changing things up a bit! Instead of Money Monday today, we bring you Media Monday. Today’s topic is… Twitter.

Twitter continues to gain momentum even when many said it wasn’t going to make it (downtime, lack of interest). With every few blogs I browse through, a few will have their Twitter updates shining from a corner of their page. Even when I watch TV, I see newscasters mentioning comments from their Twitter followers.

Are you on Twitter yet? If not, why? It seems like eventually everyone is going to have an account, for some reason.

CherryPal

Published on Monday, July 21, 2008

To save money, where should you start first? How about your computer?

“The CherryPal desktop is a tiny PC designed with the user in mind. It does all the things you do every day: surf the web, keep in touch with your friends, listen to iTunes, watch videos, word processing, presentations and spreadsheets, all without the hassle of a traditional PC. It only uses 2 watts of power, lasts 10 years and has 80 percent fewer parts. There’s no software or upgrades to install, no risk of viruses, and no operating system to deal with and free 24/7 support – all for just $249. We’ve created the most affordable, easiest-to-use and greenest desktop computer available.”

The site is smooth, the rendered CherryPal looks sleek, but would you buy this?

I’m wondering how this will go if it becomes popular and if we’ll see cherries replacing apples on the backglass of cars everywhere.
