I had heard that iOS 5 would allow you to override the autocorrect dictionary. That feature alone would make the upgrade worthwhile to me. After downloading the latest OS, I went looking for the edit function.
I found a number of references to adding international keyboards, but those weren’t doing the trick for my outdated 3GS.

Last night I tweeted something mostly to mock the “free culture” movement that doesn’t want to pay for anything. Since I mostly play the multiplayer versions of video games, and rarely spend any time at all with the storyline, I made the following comment:

In the early days of the Internet, the newspaper industry made a terrible miscalculation. Under the belief that the first newspaper available on the Internet would own the space, publishers worked furiously to make content available – largely for free.

As I was driving home this evening I couldn’t help but notice the staggering number of little slips of paper on my dash. Our office is in a part of town with a lot of parking meters. Most of the old school meters have been replaced with the single kiosk that accepts credit cards.

That’s the thing I love about social media. It really affords you possibilities to interact with others
My initial thoughts on the season finale of Lost I summed up in a tweet last night.
After six years of great foreplay, #Lost becomes an inconsiderate lover – rolls over, turns off the lights, leaves me unfulfilled.
What has been so great about the show, and the reason I have
