Tech On: If you’re not using Twitter…you’re missing out!

A fellow Twitterer posted a great blog about using Twitter, then ‘tweet’ed her followers…If you’ve been thinking about using Twitter but haven’t yet; check out Vicky Beeching’s blog about it here.

You’ll be glad you did!

Once you’ve signed up for a Twitter account, be sure to click the “add Twitter to your site” link in the right hand corner of your home page…Twitter can follow you wherever you are; even go mobile (cell phone) if you’d like.

Microsoft pulls offer; Yahoo stays independent…for now.

CNet News reported today that it’s finally over…the Microsoft bid for Yahoo…for now anyway.

Micosoft reportedly offered $33 a share, but Yahoo stood firm at their $37 counter offer.

Guess we’ll have to see what, if anything, pans out between Ballmer and … well … who knows?!?

But for now, no MicroHoo, YaSoft or whatever other combination your creative minds have produced, low these many moons!

SkullCandy puts the Music in your Head

A couple of weeks back we received a question about headphones and some brands we would recommend. The Question came from a lover of music that was looking for good quality sound, sturdy headphones and offered a style. He had asked us about a company called SkullCandy and wanted to know what we thought of the line from the company that seems to target the younger ager set 16-24 and give them style and good sound from earbuds and traditional headphones.

Carol sent the company an email and we received a pair of “cans” to take a look and listen with. Impressive looking, even while still in the packaging, was our quick summation. Hard colorful plastic with Soft earphones and a cable set up that seems to deal with cords wrapping around you while DJ’ing, casual listening or listening to the closed ear style while still maintaining some activity. The comfort level seems high with these, The GI, that we looked at. Replacement Earpads and a cord that can be disconnected in two places, great for not having a long cord trailing you like a bad shoelace. A nice carrying bag also came with the SkullCandy headphones that Slick and Carol will look at on this weeks TechtalkRadio Broadcast Show.

I’ve put a couple of pictures here in the blog and we’ll post an official review after we get a chance to play with these a bit.
