Well I am going to start this cause I was told to stimulate my mind, and figure this might be the way to do so. For any readers out there or future readers, this blog will consist of news in the world, our advances in the Technology world, any controversy readers would like to bring up or even question me on. A little about myself: Out of the Chicago land area I am studying computer forensics, and work for a company called Baxter Healthcare at the time being. I love the water and any sports on the water, so if any readers want to ask or talk about wakeboarding, skiing, etc. post it. Any news articles you think I would find interesting, send them to me and I'll post it whether I like it or not. Basically for the readers this site will consist of whats going on in my head...leave it at that...pick at it if you like.

Which search engine do you use?

iPhone Bill in a box?


Do you have an iPhone? Well if you do, either get eBilling set up or don't send text messages! Justine Ezarik is one of the many people who rushed out to get the iPhone, she is also one of the many who switched to At&t in order to use the pretty little piece of technology, but she was one of the only ones special enough to receive her bill in a BOX!?!?!?! Ezarik received her bill in the mail the other day, only to notice it was 300 pages long. "This is a lot of waste, It's a cardboard box, a ton of pages, and plus, it was almost $10 to send this, so it does not make any sense." Ezarik said.

Most of the bill consisted of the details of text messages that were sent and received. She has gone on to make a point of paper conservation by posting a video to Apples theme music showing her concern. This video can be seen on Youtube.com or her blog tastyblogsnack.com
The video has already received well over 200,000 hits.

AT&T said it rarely sends bills in a box, and its customers do have the option to be billed online instead of on paper.
