March 22, 2008 on 2:07 pm | In NYC | No Comments

Is this a joke? red for Manhattan, rose for Bronx, blue for Brooklyn, green for Queens and orange for Staten Island…

A Wisconsin Gun paint company, once was banned in NYC for disguising dangerous guns in bright colors and making them look like toys guns, came up with the Bloomberg Collection gun paint. The EZ Camo Kits is to decorate semiautomatics and rifles in brick & mortar color.

NYers! Watch out these “toys”!!!!

Micosoft’s “Home Office” - “Albany”

March 22, 2008 on 11:09 am | In Software, Windows | No Comments

Microsoft is working on a web-based Office Beta codenamed “Albany”. Challenging the uprising of Google Apps and Google Docs, which are the most popular web application for home users now, Microsoft’s “Home Office” will be a competitor to Google’s.

If someone can get basic word and spreadsheet done on web for free, why he/she needs to spend hundreds of dollar on Microsoft Office? There are more and more high school and colleges students using Google Docs since its convenient and free. They don’t need to carry their USB drives every moment; directly save their works on Google servers and retrieve them from any computer with an Internet access.

“Home Office” is a big move for Microsoft in post-Gates era. Hopefully, new leaders have more opensource minds…
