Living with Technology: Building My Annual Production PC.
@loydcase: I hope you know that all of us geeks out there are mumbling "God damn you, Loyd" under our breaths. Now I have to mutter obscenities at my old Core 2 Quad that I built back in 08. Very beautiful build, though, and it's nice to see what the people 'in the know' are buying for themselves.

The Android 4.0 Menu Button Controversy: It's Action Overflow Now.
I like the idea of just putting the important features front and center. I've used android since r33, so design inconsistencies aren't anything new to me. People will memorize their favorite apps whether they're standardized or not.

How Google Could Leverage Nexus as a Brand to Clean Up Android.
@obidamnkenobi: Unfortunately, I have to agree with you. It's sad that Android has gone this way, but I guess that's just the business. Still, I would love to see Nexus become a more popular brand for those of us that want just the stock hardware with guaranteed updates.

How Open Source webOS Could Woo the Android Dev Community.
I always thought WebOS was the bomb, and I always wanted to try it out. If there's a chance that I could get a ROM of WebOS on my Android phone, even just to play with, I would be really stoked to try it.

I'm interested in it if they have mobile apps for my phone like Netflix does. Also, I'm pretty happy with the price I'm paying for Netflix now. Eight bucks a month is a pretty easy cost to justify these days. I have a feeling that Verizon is going to do something stupid with the pricing that's going to kill them here. I don't really care enough about the HBO shows ...

How Much Data the Most Popular Smartphone Tasks and Apps Actually Use.
Music streaming is what kills my data usage. Where I work, there's no wifi allowed, so everything is done over 3G/4G if we want to do it at all. Since we like to listen to music, we basically just set my phone to our favorite Slacker station and hit play. There have been days where we burned through a couple hundred megabytes of data just listening to music.

Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich Features: Hits and Misses
I'm looking forward to this one. I'll probably just have to spring for the Galaxy Nexus when it comes out since I hate waiting for manufacturers and carriers to finally get their ducks in a row.

Screen size is definitely a function of whether or not the phone has a real keyboard for me. My current phone is a G2, which has a pretty small screen by current standards, but it's got the physical keyboard, so when I'm typing, I wind up getting to see more of the screen anyways. The only phones I've been able to consistently type well on that were soft keyboards were ...

Everything You Need to Know About CyanogenMod 7.1 for Android
.
I don't really dig how it comes with the ADW launcher. To me, that launcher runs much slower than the stock launcher - even if it does offer more features. What used to make Cyanogen stand out from the crowd was how fast his old ROMs ran. As soon as something that I'm using 75% of the time I'm on my phone, namely the launcher interface, starts running slowly, I ...
