IT for You

Ok Ok – That statement was a little untrue. It’s not like in Click where you can control people, space, and time but you can now control anything that previously used a control … all with your iPhone.

TV … check … DVR … check … super secret take over the world weapon … check?

So what’s the magic? L5 my friend. L5 created a free app that uses an not so free adapter to take over your remote controls. The process of copying each button may be a little tedious but once it’s done you no longer need your remotes.

I say take it for a spin!!

What?

Ok Ok just listen first before you pass judgement. I’m actually not sure if this service even works but it’s a great idea haha. I found this service on one of the money saving blogs I read but basically it allows you to turn in an old book that you don’t read for one that you want to read. Cool right?

It’s called paperbackswap. I suggest checking it out.

Ever wonder what’s the big deal about schools like Harvard, Yale, and MIT? I mean we all know that the best and brightest aim for these schools and their curriculum must be really tough and “ground breaking” or something but what really separates their courses from ones at any other accredited university?

Good question I say but I don’t think it’s worth a years pay to find out – Insert AcademicEarth.org. Academic Earth archives video courses of lectures from all of the top schools and best of all it’s free.

Want to get an educated on web technology from a professor at Harvard? It’s just a click away. I can’t wait to look at all of the courses they have.
