the iPad (???)

even though I posted three days ago, I couldn’t resist blogging again. :) As you can see, I added some pages in the navigation *points above*, little things, but still things (five pictures and two drawings/paintings).

 I said I was going to blog, so I have decided to, as my first official blog, write about the iPad.If you’ve never heard of it, it’s basically another Apple product. This specific product is a tablet computer, sells for around 500-700 bucks, and is for on the go or just home use. The first thing about the iPad that caught my attention was the name. I’m sorry, but the i PAD? couldn’t it be the i TABLET? or, I don’t know, the i Go or something?!?! the school girl in me was giggling in amusement for at least ten minutes. Why, oh why, apple Gods, did you name your invention after a feminine product? Not only is it funny, it gives me the heeby jeebies. It also is fairly misleading. When someone mentioned the iPad, I thought Apple had released a revolutionary feminine product (maybe that could be Apple’s next project since they are so “above the times”).  Don’t get me wrong, I love Apple and their products, just not this particular one. If you haven’t seen a picture, this is it. It looks like an oversized, gawky iTouch or iPhone. My conclusion? If you have the iTouch or the iPhone or the iWhatever, don’t bother with this one. I think the ibook or the iMac is more bang for your buck, and spending 500-700 dollars for an on-the-go product is so not worth it. Just for craps and giggles, if you’ve never seen this MadTv spoof, you need to. //end iPad rant.  

So, now that I’ve let all of my iAgression out, I have a couple questions for everyone.

1) what do you think of the iPad?

2) would you rather freeze to death or burn to death (my friends and I were debating this the other day)?
signing out,

Hayley

Hey everyone! (if there IS an everyone anymore)

I am back after a long long long long hiatus. not 2 years long, but still, it feels like forever since me and the site have been good friends. Before I continued work, I thought I’d post this. See, I’ve realized I am not very responisble (really? gosh, that shocks me!), and often I neglect my dear old caught-in-a.net….soo I’ve decided not to pressure myself to complete things, as that makes me even more iresponsible. I’m going to use caught-in-a.net as a blogging site. Occasionally, I will add little tid bits of things-maybe some photographs or some other media-but it will mainly be for blogging. I just don’t want to start something, set expectations, and not go through with them. So, I’m keeping things simple and just blogging and hanging around. Before I go…. What are everyone’s opinions on avatar? liked it, did not liked it? SHARE! :)
