Baseless Prediction: The next Mac Pro, made in the USA(?) and coming out in 2013, should probably be...

...a cube.

+= Next Mac Pro?

Oblong -- the next Apple? Or are they just the next Commodore?

Google is the greatest web company ever. They weren't the first one, though. And in fact, most of the things they did were things others were already offering to the general public, except that they just made it all better:

The Onion, America's Finest News Source, ...

...just in case you didn't know, is a news satire organization. They don't really put out real news. If you didn't know, that's fine. Because anyway, I guess, in the same way, people are always able to spot sarcasm, right?

So if you see articles like this, you'll know how to react:

Just saying.

What people don't know about Professional Bloggers. And for-profit corporations.

Professional bloggers write things that strike at the emotions. They write mostly opinion pieces, which, last I heard, are not facts. Case in point, one article from Gizmodo:

Is Windows 8 really that simple? NO.

Some guy posts this video on Google+ (I know, right? What the hell am I doing on G+! LOL), and says "Genius, filmed in real life. Is Windows 8 really that simple?"

On the lighter side of things, can you guess what my emoji stand for in this image?

Haters gonna hate.

One blogger said:

Fired execs, Scott Forstall & Steven Sinofsky, forming one company would be...

Wow, I can't imagine what kind of new things they might come up with. A new cross-device OS that'll kill Windows and iOS and Android and maybe Xbox, too? But, maybe it should have emulators to be able to at least run Windows and Android, ala the OS X Bootcamp. I was thinking they could hook up with Firefox and make that Firefox OS a reality that we all can really use. But then again, they should probably thinking up new computing paradigms altogether. No more mice. Not just touch screens. Or voice. Maybe, go 3D.

And then again, Forstall technically isn't leaving Apple until 2013, and only Sinofsky is totally out of Microsoft. I am really wishfully thinking that Forstall, for this next year at Apple as "special advisor to the CEO", is actually just dreaming up the next new thing. He isn't gonna be SVP of iOS anymore, sure. But maybe he can become SVP of [insert name of next new thing here] by the end of 2013. He is such a talent that Apple probably wouldn't really want to go to competition. A jerk, but is a talent. Reminds me of someone.

App for Grabs #2: Web Browser for Today's Desktop OSes

App for Grabs is a new series I'd like to start on "i" on Tech. It's basically an idea I have for an app (whether for mobile or desktop or web), but it seems no one has written that exact app just yet. So, I put this app idea up for grabs. Hence, the name. If you're a developer and you grab this app idea, please feel free to contact me for donations and royalties! :D  And I'd be happy to give you more app ideas. If you're evil and you don't even want to credit me, well, I will let the world judge you.

Anyhow, here's my second App for Grabs. More like new app features.
