So, starting today we’ll begin posting your geekend updates where [...]

Everything showcased in the below ‘concept’ video impressed me, from the iCal integration to on-the-fly textbook purchases which makes sense for people like [...]

Saturday, October 24, 2009 22:39 5 CommentsYeah, that’s slightly more negative than my usual hook, but I just can’t help myself.
