  I've used VistaPrint.com for many years.  During their infancy, their customization interface was way ahead of its time.  Several years later, it's even better.

It is extremely user-friendly.  Just click and type, drag stuff around, insert their images or your own and then order a small or large quantity.  I haven't tried all of their products, but I use their business cards a lot...not always just as business cards, though.  Sometimes I get a small amount that has my new address on them to send to friends who don't have email (yes, those people still exist) or if I have a temporary promo that I'm doing.  Their very inexpensive and I can create it in any way I want.

They want to get you hooked (like me) so they always seem to offer some small amount of stuff for free.  This gets you inside their site to play around with their user-friendly interface.  After you see how easy it is, you'll be certain to come back for more or...just maybe...blog about it

This isn't geeky, but I couldn't resist.  This is the Hillshire Farm "Entree Salads" (sort of).

If you absolutely must have something geeky to take with you about this, then...um...i shot and posted in widescreen to see what it would look like compared to the other 4:3 ones.  made the button console much smaller after the flash video conversion (see right column about what i use to make this site).

According to Electronic House magazine, at least 81% of tech-savvy consumers will not buy a proprietary dvd player for fear of one losing out over the other (rewind to BetaMax).

Do I buy the HD-DVD player or the Blu-Ray DVD player?  I've seen more ads lately for Blu-Ray but that doesn't mean it's winning (or going to).  Even the pc companies can't decide what to offer it's customers (for us custom-built consumers, that is).  I've been watching the quad core for a while and keep pricing on Alienware to watch the price drop and they are offering the Blu-Ray DVD drive as an upgrade option...for about $1000.00 (yikes!).  Not worth the risk yet (and of course the prices will drop quickly), but I'd rather drop that at the casino or slap on more memory

LG, however, has come out with a combo HD-BluRay dvd player that is getting decent reviews (read cnet.com's review here).  You can buy one at Best Buy Online, just type "BH100" in the search field.

If the above YouTube video doesn't work, then you can see it HERE.

I hate when companies release info about something that's totally awesome, only to find out that it's only available in Japan or isn't available at all to consumers (and no ETA on when it will). Regardless, I think the concept and implementation of the Philips Photonic Textiles is awesome. Of course, if it begins saturating the market we'll all grow to hate it fairly quickly as all of the additional advertising will be (even more) out of control.
