Verizon Fios - The Internet Service that can't take Internet Orders

Okay, nothing gets me more crazed then things like this. I've tried 3 seperate times over the past couple of weeks to sign up to Verizon FiOS. I'm currently a Comcast customer and have been wanting the tasty speed of a true fiber optic connection.

So, today i decided that today would be the day that Verizon would answer my dorky dreams. Upon going through the entire registration and order process, I was greeted with the lovely Verizon screen of death. In the middle of my anger, I began to ask myself why I would even want to order Internet service from a company that's can't process Internet Orders??? Why?

Below is the screen shot of my wonderful error page. I've seen this on 3 seperate tries and have had enough.

Help spread the word and let's take the order process back!

Long time no chat....

Well gang, I've been way too busy to explain but i need to get something off my chest.

I kinda gave up the whole blog thing up until Verizon decided to shank me today. I'm hoping you guys can help spread the word...

stay tuned...

BarterBee.com - Is this the next big thing?

Hey all,

I'm really sorry for the lack of posts lately...been really swamped with work and such. Oh well, it appears I have a life afterall.

Anyways, I heard about this site BarterBee.com from a bud of mine and became a little interested in how it all works. It looks like a mutt of sites but seems to deliver on a common need many people have...to get rid of their stuff so they can make room for new and more fun stuff. In this case, it's just movies, music, and games but you get the picture.

It looks like they have a good amount of items listed from their current members but the games section is still not live. Personally, i think i'll wait to join until that part is ready. Afterall, i'm a gamer dork through and through.

take a look and let me know what you think... maybe we can all trade from each other.

or maybe not....back to sleep and sludge.

bye bye

LOL! Did anyone really think this was going to do anything? C'mon now people on the hill. I feel sorry for those who don't understand.

Those who don't follow the rules, never follow the rules.

Too cool! This will be a blast but will unfortunately lead to many more legal issues. People will be watching inappropriate shows at the wrong times and so on.

Maybe they could build a tivo into this thing?

What da hell is going on with this world? Have kids really lost all of their motivation? Gone are the days when the kids simply took care of their own business, now they simply sit in their room asking for someone else to do it.

I assume kids no longer want to even accept that responsibility.

Bill puts limit on ads in e-mail / State Senate action privacy concerns over Google service

Bill puts limit on ads in e-mail / State Senate action privacy concerns over Google service: "Bill puts limit on ads in e-mailState Senate action privacy concerns over Google service"

This is a disgrace to our country. In the time when we are concerned about another 9-11 occurring, we are wasting government time, cash, and resources on something as petty as G-mail.

Little do the masses know, all email programs and websites for that matter have been doing the same thing that Gmail is doing for years now. It's just that Google was ethical and told people about iit.
