Ben Huh – icanhascheezburger


Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed

Ben Huh is a tinkerer. He’s been screwing things up at home, school and work since finding a keyboard. Despite his training as a journalist – and the-right-way-to-spell – he runs I Can Has Cheezburger? Because, laughing at lolcats is a lot more fun than writing about PTA elections.

Are You Looking for Free Desktop Wallpapers?


Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed

What is your current wallpaper? More importantly, how often do you change your wallpaper? You’d be surprised to find out how many people never change theirs. I can’t stand that. I have to change mine almost constantly or it drives me nuts. There are so many places that will change your wallpaper automatically, including the new Top Draw from Google.

Have You Tried the Pogo iPhone Stylus?


Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed

One of the nice things about having an iPhone is not having to carry around a Stylus. There are times, though, that I wish I had one. Things like drawing are much easier with a Stylus, since my fingers are just too big. Have you ever wanted a Stylus for your iPhone? I reviewed another Stylus recently, and wasn’t very impressed with it. This Pogo Stylus is available from ThinkGeek, and works very well!

How Does Your Multicolor LED Panel Glow?


Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed

I am so glad that I’m not any kind of insect or bug. For one, they get horrible Internet access. And two… they are attracted to lights. I am too, actually. If you look in my office at any time, you’ll see tons of lights glowing, in all different colors. Sometimes, I find myself getting up from my desk and walking towards my pretty glowing lights. It’s kind of weird though, since they are sitting on top of my hutch. That’s why I’m glad I’m not a bug, because I’d end up dead. I’m just attracted to lights too much.

Lockergnome is a nickname that I kind of gave myself, but I can’t take full credit. My college-prep writing teacher called me the Gnome.

Is Your Username Already Taken on Popular Social Networks?


Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed

I use Lockergnome, or even just my real name, on most of the Social Networks I belong to. I know several people who choose one name, and stick with it everywhere, for all time. Is your username unique? Do you stick with one wherever you go? Usernames are kind of fun, but I’d honestly like to see them disappear. Inevitably, people tend to get upset when they join a new site, and their username is already taken by someone else. How can you check and find out if your username is taken on any given network out there, is to check with Usernamecheck. Simply type in the username you wish to check on, and the service will let you know what sites it has already been registered on.

Why not use a website that allows you to search several different places – all at once? Cyclops allows you to do just that.
