Kindle Wireless Reader

Started the day out by listening to The Beatles – which usually sets the tempo for the rest of the day depending on what comes my way.

I’ve been reading about a lot of gadgets lately and am impressed with some of the things coming out. Many of the “why didn’t I think of that?” Or “It was only a matter of time before someone invented that or came up with that idea?” And again that is the case here.

Kindle Wireless Reader

Amazon has released Kindle, which not only allows you to carry hundreds of novels with you at any given time, it uses the same wireless technology as cellphones so there is no connecting fees to browse books online and purchase right from a couple of clicks on your Kindle. Which means you can be in the back of a taxi, or walking down a street and buy a book and have it auto-delivered in under a minute! Isn’t that amazing?

I know what you’re thinking, “why didn’t I think of that?” Well, that’s how good ideas come – from right under our noses.

The display looks like paper, you can flip through pages fast, and even bookmark, highlight sections save your place and much more. Between this gadget, and the latest MacBook – I know what I want for my birthday. :)

Do you play Warcraft?

How many adults play World of Warcraft? I bet it is more than you would imagine! Today’s video gamer is not just a chubby faced kid with glasses. Much of today’s gaming advertising is not only aimed at adults, but many of the games themselves are intended for adults. The video game industry has spent a lot of money to break away from the “chubby kid” gamer image.

While some are clearly for both kids and adults. World of Warcraft is a MMORPG which is Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game or something similar. The game is the “world” or online version of the very successful Warcraft real time strategy games for the PC.

“Do you play World of Warcraft?” just may be the next pick up line in a bar!

World of Warcraft is very popular right now and you can find many screenshots of actual game play on the internet.

Get Rich Books

So I guess I’m going to order a couple more Get Rich Books. I feel like a romance addicted housewife who can’t put down grocery store novels :( But they encourage me nonetheless.

Maybe I’ll get an online payday loan and order the red iPod.

Pink Prada For Breakfast

My one-year wedding anniversary is coming up and I haven’t decided what to buy my wife. I want to buy her something nice, and something she will like.

When I buy gifts, I try to buy something for the person, that they wouldn’t buy for themselves. So I am debating buying her a Pink Prada Handbag and something else. I haven’t decided what else yet, but something – anything – other than another expensive handbag.

Maybe I should get her these Pink Versace Jeans ;)
