    Tracking wireless bandwidth use

    I picked up a mifi yesterday (for my new Macbook Pro!) and was sorry to learn that, unlike the unlimited data under my Blackberry plan, the mifi is capped at 5 gigs. :( (The ATT guy tells me that all the major wireless providers are instituting data caps and that unlimited plans will become...

    "Long Life, Happiness and Prosperity" a Canadian indie flick starring Sandra Oh. Oh is good as usual, but all the others absolutely charmed me. Film is free on hulu.

Reporter says he can tell from my accent I'm not a Missourian. Tell him I'm from SE Michigan and turns out...
