So Microsoft has released IE8. I ran it for a while during it's beta phase, prior to my computer biting the dust but just have not cared enough to reinstall it on my new laptop. I just don't really care. It doesn't seem to offer me anything that would get me to switch from using Flock.

I'm sure I will eventually install it, if only to test my crime site when I finish rebuilding it, but for now I'll stick with what I have. Anyone else running it yet? Pros or cons?

Impulse is Stardock's online digital download platform and they are nearing 1,000,000 customers as they start to round the corner on Impulse's one year birthday. Initially famous for their eye-candy and ability to extend Windows, Stardock has jumped into the gaming environment over the last few years, rolling out a platform for other companies to release their games on.

Stardock will be giving away a $4,000 gaming PC to it's one millionth customer. Check out more about Stardock and the details over here.

OS 4.7.0.114 for the Blackberry Storm has been released into the wild. Before you head over looking for links to download bear in mind that this is a beta release and can hose your storm and turn it into a brick if you screw it up.

That having been said I am currently running version .103 right now, the last official Verizon release being .75. I tend to wait a while myself and let everyone else find all of the bugs before I upgrade myself simply because my phone also doubles as my home and business line and I don't need a non-working device if the bugs are too ugly.

If you are still interested, head over to the CrackBerry forums where you can find more information.

It's been quite some time since I posted over here. I've been putting all of my energy into my crime blog and now it's time to rectify that. I will attempt to start posting here at least once a day. Anyone else interested in helping out is is more than welcome to shoot me an email to rm_blogger@yahoo.com as well.

Anyhow, on to the post. Once of the places I've been hanging out at online since picking up my Blackberry Storm back in December is CrackBerry, and one of the folks over there has released a fun 'game' for the Blackberry entitled Crackberry Smash. Check out the video after the break...
