If you didn't know, not only am I an OCRADDICT, but I am a geek as well (really kind of an Uber Geek). Having said that, I look for metrics and analytics on just about everything I do and work with. While training for the next event, many of us are looking for a way to tack our activity and improve our training but don't have an unlimited budget for things like GPS watches and dedicated activity trackers. Although those gadgets are great training tools, many of us don't need look much farther than our cell phones. Enter MapMyRun.

Personally, I have never really been a fan of Apple products.  That doesn’t mean they don’t have their place in the world, it just means they aren’t for me.  However, when one of the most influential people in technology passes, we ALL mourn the loss.  Whether we are PC, Mac, Linux, etc, we can all recognize and appreciate what Steve …

Look, we all know and realize that Windows is the superior operating system to anything else out there.  With that said, I am going to detail ten reasons why this is the case and offer supporting data.  Some of this may be shocking to you if you are a user of another operating system, but please… don’t feel inferior.

I am not one to take jabs at companies… wait… WHO AM I KIDDING?!?!?!? I love jabbing companies! Well anyway, as I was saying… Lately companies have really been surprising me with some of their antics. My rants stretch back from AOL to Microsoft and today the latest crazy chicken on the chopping block is Apple, again. This time, they …

If you are like me, you like to take advantage of everything your devices can do.  I overclock my pc’s, my blenders, and like to watch movies on my iPod.  The wonderful features of these devices really are limited only to your skill set.  Finding the movies you want to watch on your next plane ride is easy, getting them …

I have been absolutely frustrated since I got my iPod! I have more than one computer in my house and many of them don’t stay very long. In my efforts to add songs from different locations, including my work PC, to my iPod I discovered that this wasn’t as easy as I had hoped. Being new to the “i” scene, …
