Come hang out with me on Facebook!

Nov 3, 2009 Author: Veronica | Filed under: contest, news

I’ve been spending a lot of time on my Facebook page lately, posting links, comments, and generally having fun with the folks that have joined up.

I’ve done some software giveaways before, but I actually have a physical product to send out to a fan this time: a Flip Mino HD! I’ll pick a winner randomly this coming Monday morning (the 9th) from the fan page, so if you haven’t already, sign up below! If you win, I’ll send you a message asking for your shipping address.

Good luck! Oh, and Pure Digital (the makers of the Flip) are in no way affiliated with this giveaway. This is all me!

Droid SMS alert on the iPhone

Nov 1, 2009 Author: Veronica | Filed under: apple, babble, funny, video

Ryan has been quite taken by the Droid SMS alert sound (as evidenced by the most recent gdgt podcast) so I decided it would be fitting to make it his ringtone on my iPhone when he calls.

Unfortunately, I realized after the fact that it would have been much funnier to make it the default ringtone on his phone for all calls. You can get the sound here for your own personal enjoyment.

I used MakeiPhoneRingtone after converting the .wav to .aac, but you can also use Fission, GarageBand or the myriad other methods available.

Just a quick heads up in case you missed it, but I’ve been writing a new column over at MaximumPC called Trending Topics. It’s based around my thoughts (however random) on the social media and Web 2.0 world, and it’s published every other week. Here are my first three posts:

Trending Topics: The New Internet Chat

As if Anthony Bourdain could get any more animated!

Oct 26, 2009 Author: Veronica | Filed under: babble, food, funny, internet, video

If The Venture Brothers and Aqua Teen Hunger Force came together and had a little lovechild with No Reservations, I have a feeling it would look like the newest project from Anthony Bourdain and The Travel Channel. The aptly-named Anthony Bourdain’s Alternate Universe is a completely animated series that delves deep into the twisted mind of the celebrity chef (and it looks like there will be more than a few Rachel Ray jokes).

Anthony is one of my idols, not only because of his on-air persona, but because it’s so obvious that he loves what he does (even when he’s frustrated during a shoot, which I find especially hilarious and relatable). In the spirit of Tony, I’ll say that I’m looking forward to his new project almost as much as he looks forward to a new, exotic pork dish.
