These are about tech stuff outside of apple

With the new Google Chrome OS now all out in the open, we are all learning new stuff about this new Linux based OS that could possibly be the Ubuntu killer. As of today, we have now learned that Intel has worked with and presumably still working with Google on their new OS. You can read the full story on PC World

I liked the image that Engadget made, so I put a copy of it here:
So last month, Squarespace started giving away iPhone 3Gs’ via Twitter. One a day for 30 days, and that is coming to a close (they have 3 left as of today – See the winners list). Now, GDGT is giving away Blackberry Storms and Bolds. All you have to do, is have a GDGT account, and then add it to your want list! They have 15 Storms and 15 Bolds, just make sure you add them to your list Today!
GDGT pronounced Gadget is launching today, (well eventually) and this is a new site by Peter Rojas, previous head guy at Engadget, but he is starting his own new site where you can add your own gadgets that you have, had or even want to a list that is publishable online. This allows you to see what gadgets you own and start talking to others about the gadgets that you have. So for instance, I have an iPhone 3G, I would just add it in to the list of items that I have and it would be seen by others on the site, and we could talk about it, ask questions or even get help from others in the GDGT community. It even has a section for items that you have had, so if you are an expert on the Motorola V3xxx, and you can help someone else out, this would be a great place to go. They also have a section for gadgets that you want as well, so if you have questions about the item, and someone already owns one, you could ask them questions, or see if they want to sell theirs. This is a great place to talk about the gadgets that you own or want! Make sure to check it out; well, as soon as it is up, the poor server is having issues at the moment…
while you are waiting, you can watch Veronica Belmont give a quick and dirty on it, on Vimeo:
