Olá pessoal! Como vocês sabem, recentemente lançamos o podcast semanal do EE. Da mesma forma que para escrever bem, a gente tem que ler muito, para fazer um podcast bacana é preciso saber apreciar outros podcasts.

Talvez alguns de vocês se identifiquem com o episódio. Nas palavras dos próprios nerds “Aprenda táticas para ...

The fried food thoroughly trounced the Canadian pop star on February 6, according to the fan page, which was created by Facebook user Toby Brittan.Bieber Fan Count: ...

With the oh-so-dreaded Hallmark holiday on the horizon we are flooded with tips and tricks (mostly designed to sell us things our mates cannot live without) of how to please/capture/sedate the ones we care for. One writer even suggests ways to capture the interest of a geeky girl. That said, what are some of the crazier romantically inspired, geeky V-day stunts or activities that you or someone you know has executed to terrible success or ...

Following news that I was right about Apple's decision to not allow iPad pre-orders would cause many potential buyers to reassess things, comes this unbelievable bit of news directly from Apple itself: The company said that it would aggressively lower prices on the iPad if/when it doesn't take off in the marketplace. Apple intends to stay "nimble" on pricing of the iPad, possibly lowering prices if the newly unveiled tablet device fails to gain traction ...

The oft amusing Jim Bianco suggests that instead of using the phrases PIIGS, we give these acronyms a try: * DEBT – Dubai EU Brazil Turkey * SICK – Spain Iceland Columbia Kazakhstan * DUMP – Dubai Ukraine Mexico Portugal * PUKE – Portugal UK EU * STUPID – Spain Turkey UK Portugal Italy Dubai

Sega may have you thinking Sonic 4 is on the way, but really, it's already here. It was released in 1996. For the Super Nintendo. This is a game called "Sonic 4", a hack which took the existing Speedy Gonzales: Los Gatos Bandidos (by Sunsoft) and added some extras to it. Like Sonic, Sonic's rings, and little Marios in cages, which Sonic has to rescue. It was available as an illegal bootleg in some of ...

There are times when I let my voicemail fill up to the point of callers getting the "Sorry. Mailbox is full. Please try again." message. This is why. Click on the image for a closer look. Look, I'll return missed calls even if you don't command me to do so, I promise. Unless you're annoying. [Doghouse Diaries]
