When we got into this, we did it with the best of intentions…
Oh, were you done? Well, allow me to retort! On this episode, I say the word ’spooktacular’ no less than three times because I am 50% of BostonGeek and I can. On the Geek Top 3, we discuss universal translators [...]

I grew up in a Celtics family. My grandparents were huge fans, and I still remember running up the stairs to their apartment after dinner to sit and watch the game with them. Two of my uncles split season tickets for years, up until the prices went through the roof when they moved [...]

Another week, another episode full of “glib commentary on things we know nothing about.” Hey, at least we admit it, which is more than we can say for NPR. This week, Carl and Colin discuss RFID in credit cards, cancer at IBM, and MS chip development. Also, Greg brings us another Game Geek Challenge. [...]

After running through the list of the 50 Beers I’ve reviewed for this fine establishment, I decided it would be cool to have a list of the Top 5 Best and Worst Beers we’ve looked at so far. The worst beers weren’t too hard to figure out since while there were numermous bad beers, [...]

This marks the 50th 53rd beer to be reviewed on this website by me, Big Remy. Yes, I realize there are in fact only 47 reviews posted, but the Sam Adams Brewer Patriot Pack counts as four since it was four different beers. I must say it has been fun and my liver [...]

Stupid, crappy Xbox Live. Sony’s Online service can’t suck as much.  Why couldn’t I download Lumines Live yesterday? Why were you down, when you said you would be back up and running? I hate you Xbox Live.
I’m just kidding. Come back.  I didn’t meant it.  You are still the best online service. I swear, I [...]

Our schedule slipped due to Real Life(tm) issues.  Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.  On this week’s episode, Colin and I discuss how the worm turns for Apple, how scientists can detect the music of cancer, and how the PS3’s online service is amazingly, supposedly here.  Greg Howley gives us a new GameGeek Challenge, [...]

At first glance, this monitor appears to be a mom’s dream come true.  You can not only hear your baby’s every gurgle and whimper, but monitor the temperature in the room, play lullabies, and talk to your baby from wherever you are in the house.  All of this can be done from the light-weight parent [...]

So I was recently made aware (thanks Dave) of an article on Eurogamer discussing a hands-on look at the working PS3 Online service that will be ready for the console’s launch. I’m going to try and discuss this in two sections. Section 1) Objective look. Section 2) Fanboy glorification.
1) Objective look. [...]

n-Track Studio multitrack audio and MIDI PC recording software, developed by Italian programmer Flavio Antonioli, has been the cornerstone and workhorse of my home studio for more than five years. I use other programs for various things, but everything comes toghether in n-Track. It’s what I use to record and produce all of the music [...]

On episode 51 we have a special guest.  Our good friend and Bostongeek’s Composer, Karl Kornfeld, joins us to discuss DVD Jon’s reverse engineering of Apple’s DRM, the digital solution to hiccups, and the latest salvo in the war (insert musica dramatae here) against online gambling.  We take an in-depth look at n-Track Studio.  Finally, on [...]

I haven’t had me a good game of Warfish in a little while. And, it used to be that in order to play, someone would have to send you an invite. Now, current players can recruit others to join the fun. Not only that, but you can watch your network of recruits grow. [...]
