Wize.com - Where smart people shop for headphones

I came across this site the other day, and it seems quite interesting. It's called Wize.com. Much like such shopping sites as Pricegrabber and Newegg (except Wize.com doesn't sell anything), the site exists to provide reviews and ratings for various headphones in production. I must say I was astounded by some of the prices those headphones are selling for...but hey, if they sound good, I suppose it's worth the money, right? Anyway, I plan to utilize this site more when I actually think about getting a new pair of headphones, since it seems like a really great resource.

So check out Wize.com if you are looking for a new pair of headphones, and if you aren't, head over there anyway to make your jaw drop at some of those headphone prices!

Apple Ipod Video: Black, 30GB

Until a couple weeks ago, I was the proud owner of a Creative Labs Zen Xtra 40GB. However, after that player began to show signs of aging, I did something that is very unlike me: I caught Apple Fever. I had heard great things about the Ipod Video, and it looked amazing in pictures, so I decided to go for it.
I bought the Ipod through Buy.com (however I later found out you can find a lower price at Shopping.com; here's the link. http://www.shopping.com/xPO-Apple-iPod-Black-30-GB-MA146LL-A ) When I opened up the box, I found the usual things. The Ipod itself, a user's manual, earbuds, etc. I followed the instructions to install the player and Itunes on my computer so I could transfer some music and videos to the player. Once I accomplished this (which was quite easy), I tested both the audio and video quality of the Ipod.

The Verdict...: Nice job Apple! The sound quality is great, the picture quality is awesome, and I can find nothing wrong with the Ipod Video. The battery life has been great for the past 2 weeks (I've only had to charge it once!).

My only complaint is how easily the glossy finish on the Ipod Video (especially the black version) easily scratches. I suppose there is no real way to prevent this without using some protective case. Needless to say, it might be a good investment....

Masterseek?

Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with all of the new search engines these days. I never know which one is the best (although I suspect Google is usually the favorite). However, I recently heard about a new, different type of search engine that has come up. It's called masterseek, and it's specifically designed to connect businesses and allow them to share information, whatever it may be. I'm guessing they must be fairly new, since their website won't even come up. But so it goes in the technology age, you have to start somewhere. I look forward to seeing how Masterseek turns out.

Bloggerwave

Since starting this blog, I've been looking for ways to promote this site and maybe make a little money doing it. I stumbled across a "paid-to-blog" website, www.bloggerwave.com

The site seems promising so far. Although I have received no specific advertising opportunities so far, I found two open opportunities on the site. The first one is to write my thoughts about the Bloggerwave website. As far as I'm concerned, the site seems to be very well put together and I hope to hear more from them. That's all for now!

From Windows Live Writer....

Well, this is definitely something new. The setup of Writer is very classy, and of course follows the Windows Vista theme nicely. I don't have a whole lot of time to play around with Writer too much right now, so I'll keep you all posted on how the program works!

Windows Live Writer

Well that was pretty quick. I just wanted to inform anyone reading these posts that I will be using the new Windows Live Writer to edit this blog after this post. I have heard it is quite the program. This will give me an opportunity to review the software and hopefully make these posts a little nicer looking!
