T3K Is Now On

So what have I been up to? Well first off, I didn't get the job with Apple (@#!#-ers), still won't stop me anyways;). Could a job with CALtrans be up in the air, who knows. I'll keep you posted.

I am now closer with that podcast I was dragging on-and-on about. I have decided to call it The T3Kcast, and the first podcast will be on Bit-torrent. I know, whats Bit-torrent? Well, I will dispel the word and tell you why it is important. It will be fun, promise.
And another one will be accompanying The T3Kcast, an un-named project that I am currently planning with a dear friend of mine. Lots of fun coming from the T3K crew.

T3K is my new company, a small start-up of sorts. I thought, well since I am doing all of this, might as well keep it all under one umbrella company. So T3K will take you to other areas yet unexplored by the techferret right now. So I'm excited about this, a bit scared as well, but T3K is the start of this huge venture I am going towards.

Alright everyone, I have got to continue designing the T3K website so until you hear from me again, take care.

Apple Ushers in The iPod, iTunes 6, & More Useful iMac

Oh boy Stevie! The iPod, you dog you. Yes, The iPod now handles 150 hours of video, is thinner than the 4g iPod, 20 hours of battery life, a larger screen, and it now comes in black. Woo-hoo…now I can watch Lost and Desperate Housewives anytime of the day. Good-bye TIVO, TIVO-To go, PSP, and Archos! All The iPod come at their usual price…$299 to $399 (20gb and 60gb).

On that note, Apple also released iTunes 6, now with support for videos selling for $1.99 (US) each…kinda cheap don’t you think? Besides TV shows, you can also download vidcasts and music videos for the same price. Huh…Could this be the beginning of a second coming for Apple?

And finally, Stevie released an updated iMac which is remarkably thinner than before, feature a built-in iSight (web camera) and lighting, Mighty Mouse is standard, Bluetooth, Superdrive (DVD Burner), and the all new Front Row software, their answer to the Windows Media Center, which allows you to use their new Remote Control to…well control your iMac from a far distance. All I have got to say is…right on! The 17in is $1,299, while the 20in is $1,699.

Well, you might be wondering why post this twice...or what are you talking about? I have another blog which I am considering to use now as the new pad for "The T3K by techferret". It runs under Wordpress, and I do like it. Their options are pretty, and they can match on Blogger for many things. I still haven't made a decision on it yet, so please bear with me. I'll make another post soon so that everyone doesn't have to be in the dark anymore on what the techferret is up to.
