Hipmunk adds ‘agony rating’ to flight recommendations

The single-worst airplane ride I ever took was the red eye out of Vegas on a Sunday night — I left at like 9:00 PM Vegas time and landed in Charlotte at 6:00 AM EST (where I had to drive to work, guh). Of course, it

OpenTable: An app that’ll keep you from wrecking Valentine’s again

It probably would have been smart to bring OpenTable to your attention BEFORE Valentine's Day. So, yeah, my bad on that, because it's actually quite a fantastic little service and could have saved you from having that vase of fake peonies chunked at your head late Monday. OpenTable, simply put, is a

AT&T offers 1,000 free rollover minutes to some iPhone customers

Remember when I spent a long time explaining why you should wait to get the Verizon iPhone? Well, here’s another one: AT&T’s offering 1,000 free rollover minutes to some iPhone customers.

No, seriously: 1,000 free minutes. The only catch — insofar as I can tell —

Valet debuts new iPhone/iPad app

Valet is one of my favorite full-service men's style websites. And now you'll be able to take them anywhere. Today they debuted their first iPhone/iPad application. It's chock full with all the goodness we've become used to with Valetmag.com. The app allows you to comment and share at will, as well

Verizon iPhone 4 reviews come pouring in

It’s fairly obvious that the media embargo on Verizon iPhone 4 reviews was about 8:00 PM EST (or thereabouts) on Wednesday night, because if you’ve got any tech-related sites in your Google Reader, they’re all piled up one after another.

(It’s also fairly obvious that the

Lonely Planet’s begging you to take their free apps

It’s snowing in Texas.

Yeah, it seems weird, but it happened and it could happen again. So whether you’re heading to Texas or leaving Texas or even going to Mars in order to avoid the obviously impending Apocalypse, it’s probably a good idea to take down

The top free iPhone game belongs to a 14-year-old boy

In the most feel-good story involving an iPhone since the last time I coerced a random chick to text me nude photos of herself in a top hat (we all have our quirks), "Angry Birds" has been dethroned on the free iPhone app charts..by a 14-year-old boy named Robert Nay and his game "Bubble Ball".

Apple is going to be able to ‘kill’ your jailbroken iPhone

Apple is creeping ever closer to becoming something out of an Orwell novel as it applies for a patent for a “killswitch” that would allow them to immediately deactivate any phone found to be using unauthorized or illegitimate software.

Quote of the Day

There’s never a “good” time, per se, to steal a person’s iPhone. But the worst time is probably when you steal a phone in the middle of a company’s demonstration showing how effective their GPS technology is in catching thieves.

VIDEO: Steve Jobs is Darth Vader in Taiwan?

Another gem from the fine folks at NMA News in Taiwan. Last week it was a video of monkey soldiers and this week it's portraying Steve Jobs as a Darth Vader in yet another confusing video. Steve Jobs: Ruler of Apple Inc. and Chinese sweatshops throughout the galaxy!

VIDEO: iPhone support call that confuses and amuses

I’m sure this is fake, but it’s still a prime example of everything corporations are doing wrong with overseas tech support.
