iPhone 4 is scheduled for release on Thursday June 24th, 2010 at 7:00AM local time. The same day new Futurama episode airs on Comedy Central!

Faster Than The Speed Of Light.

Something that is faster than the speed of light? That’s a bull-pie! Nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. That’s why scientists increased the speed of light in 2208.

It might be some wacky comedy from Futurama, but a scientist has created radio waves that travels faster than the speed of light. John Singleton the scientist (not the movie director) has achieved that.

Something that is faster than the speed of light. I want my Sub-Space Communication along with Warp Drive, Transporter and Replicator. Wait a minute, that’s from Star Trek.

Anyway, Albert Einstein would be so proud.

December, Slow Tech, Huge Comedy Month

Here we are at the last month of 2008. It has been an interesting year for the tech industry. Google has finally released its first operating system; for mobile phone. Apple is going full speed ahead with the iPhone 3G, and the rest of industry trying to match it up. Microsoft is finally responding to Apple’s “Get A Mac” ads, by admitting that all that Apple has been poking fun at are true. Yahoo! is looking down a barrel of a gun playing Russian Roullette, “Buy me still, buy me not.”

Let’s see what else went on in 2008 so far. Obama successfully utilized the Technology (read: Internet) in the Presidential Campaign. The Stock Market took a nose-dive. Metallica released “Death Magnetic” in September. Axl’s Guns N’ Roses “Chinese Democracy” is actually released. Wall-E is AWESOME! BlackBerry Storm is unlike any other BlackBerries, it is more iPhone-like with a twist. AVCHD camcorders are gaining ground. Apple ditched FireWire on its new Unibody Aluminum MacBook. Futurama goes High-Def with “Bender’s Game” Blu-Ray.

OK, I’ll add whatever above later.

The point is that that December is usually a slow month for Technology. So I’m focusing on some other things such as the Holiday and Comedy.

The three comedians I’m working with will be having some big shows in December.

Jill-Michele Meleán is having her JillyOnline.com show at the Hollywood Improv on December 9th, 2008.

Darren Carter will be performing in Sacaramento, California and Milwaukee, Wisconsin this December. Check his Web-Site or Blog for dates.

Carlos Alazraqui will be storming Cobbs Comedy Club December 12th and 13th. The week before Christmas, Carlos will be doing huge shows at Hollywood Improv. Mark your Calendar, December 19th and 20th, 2008.
