The iPad Mini is small!

The Technology news for the week:
  • Here is what the 7.85 inch iPad Mini would look like: iPad-Mini-update-03-CiccareseDesign
    It will have a dual core chip and 1024×768 display. It will be like the iPad 2, but smaller.
  • You heard about the Steve Jobs movie starring Ashton Kutcher, right? The good news is that it is not the one made by Sony. This version will cover Apple from 1971 all the way through 2000. The movie will be called Jobs: Get Inspired. It might be good, it all depends on how they approach it.
  • Google Drive is like Dropbox, but cooler. When it is released next week, most likely Tuesday or Wednesday, it will offer 5 GB of space compared to 2 GB that Dropbox offers. It will be just like Dropbox, but made by Google and larger storage capacity. I will atleast try it out, but I think I will stay with Dropbox for now.
  • The BUFF iPhone screen protector protects your iPhone from angry coffee mugs, hammers, and a brick. Don't believe me, check out the video below:

    It cost anywhere from $20-$30 depending on the device you are buying it for.
  • The Youtube Channel of the week is: SourceFed
    It is a news channel started by Phillip DeFranco and is about a lot of Pop Culture stuff. Its kind of like this blog, but in video form. I used to watch every episode, but found that the news they were talking about I have either already read or I already blogged about it. It is still a good channel and is worth checking out.
Thanks for reading today's post, as always leave a comment down below about anything or the question of the day, which is: 

QOTD: What do you think of 
SourceFed ?

Scream! Its the Last Man Walking Dead!

I don't really watch too much TV, but this past week I watched 3 shows. I watched the season 2 premier of The Walking Dead, I saw the third episode of Tim Allen's new comedy on ABC called Last Man Standing, and I also watch The 2011 Scream Awards on SpikeTV.

As me being a big fan of The Walking Dead comics (I own comics 1-80) I loved the first season. The new season started out slow, but in a good way. It prepared you for what was coming ahead in the episode and also what’s coming ahead in the season. I don't want to give any Spoilers, except that not too many zombies were killed in the first episode. It left you at a cliff hanger and I can’t wait until the new episode this Sunday night.

If you liked Home Improvement, you will probably love Last Man Standing. Being Tim Allen's first TV Role since Home Improvement I was hoping for something that made me laugh. He plays a father in a house full of women that works for an Outdoors company that is like Bass Pro Shop. He was a traveling father working on his company catalog and they cancelled his catalog and moved him to online product description videos (which are very funny.) So now he is home more to give fatherly advice to people on the internet and take care of his grandson. The show got very high ratings and I really enjoyed it and laughed a lot. The next episode comes out this Tuesday at 8 PM and I will definitely be watching it.

And finally the 2011 Scream Awards. This was the first time I watched it and I definitely liked it. I didn't get a chance to vote online and only one won that I didn't want to win. They honored Robert Downey Jr. and Nicolas Cage and put inducted them into the Scream Hall Of Fame. It was a really good rewards show, though this was the first rewards show I have ever seen. Next year I will definitely vote and watch the rewards show next year.

Until next time,

An Introduction is in order.

It seems that an Introduction is in order. Hello, My name is Joshua Vincent. I'm a college Student from Charlotte, NC. I came up with the idea for this Blog about 2 and a half months ago. I was going to do it as a web show on YouTube, but I don't have the equipment or the space to do what I want with it. So until then I will be on here. It took me a long time to decide what I want to blog about. Then it hit me on Sunday while I was talking to a buddy of mine about future and what I wanted to do. I decided that I wanted Blog about things involving Pop Culture and my opinion/views on it. I wanted to make breaking news that Newspaper talk a few days to print, websites take hours to post, and people never hear about because it never gets to them. I will post to this Blog Monday through Friday on my 5 favorite Pop Culture topics. The Schedule will be as follows:
  • Mondays aka Movie Mondays (Movies Based news)
  • Tuesdays aka Techy Tuesdays (Technology Based news)
  • Wednesday aka Gaming Wednesday (Gaming Based news)
  • Thursday aka Tele Thursdays (Television show Based news)
  • Fridays aka Music day (Still need a catchy name for that)
So starting tomorrow there will be a Blog posted. Keep and eye out for it and feel free to leave a comment.
