I had been a huge advocate of MediaTemple, even sent clients there to host their sites on their servers. But recently when it came time to renew my virtual server I shopped around and found an amazing deal with GoDaddy. Four times the server for the price I was paying with MediaTemple. I could have [...]
Usually Redbox scores with smart emails about upcoming rentals and interesting tidbits about movies. But I thought the latest email was a bit odd: Rent 8 movies in August and get one rental free.

Because I’m a Office 2010 Beta user I’ve got access to Office online via something called SkyDrive. It’s surprisingly good actually. It isn’t as robust as Word the software, but its 95% [...]

I happened to stumble onto the article after doing a search to see if it was already being offered and oddly enough the news was released today. I think that Microsoft actually has a great opportunity here [...]
