How and Why to Plan for Christmas in July

Even though Christmas is still months away, and thoughts of mistletoe are the furthest thing from your mind as you laze away the long days of summer by the pool, it’s never too soon to start planning for the busy holiday season. Years past have found you scrambling to come up with those last-minute gifts and fighting desperate moms in the frozen foods section for the one and only ham left in the whole city on Christmas Eve. But picture this instead: come December, all of your gifts are bought, wrapped, and stored neatly in the closet.

Using Twitter to Bring Traffic to Your Blog

If you aren’t on the social media bandwagon, then what are you waiting for? Social media and Twitter in particular is a must-do, especially if you are a website owner who wants to increase your exposure and bring more traffic to your site. The truth is that anyone who is anyone is tweeting, friending, updating, and broadcasting their content and personal brand – if you’re not participating on these sites, you’re not going to be considered credible (exception: you are already famous and are not using social media as a statement).

iPhone 4 – The Review

Getting my new iPhone on launch was as painless as I didn’t imagine. I think the most painful thing was waiting for it to launch and leaving the Blackberry team. Arriving at the Apple Store on 5th Avenue around 1:40pm, and seeing the line for the non-preorder made me appreciate waking up early on June 15th to Pre-order mine. A lil lack of sleep paid off. The pre-order line was very short and very organized, both lines were actually.

Apple iPhone 4 lines, not that bad

Yesterday, around 5:30pm I made my way around the Apple Store, location: 5th Avenue to see what the line was looking like and what I’ll be facing myself with the following day. As I made my way around to take the pic and record some video, I came across the number one guy on the Pre-order line, Greg Packer. I saw him on Mashable’s video the day before, he’s the dude in the bright orange shirt. I asked him how long he’s been here, he stated since Monday.
The lines are somewhat separated, across from where Greg is sitting, is the NON reservations line, the people with no pre-orders hoping to get a phone on June 24th.

iPad Review

The iPad Review!

This apparatus is just one big toy, one huge iTouch. I personally would not pay the insane amount of money this thing is worth. I would expect more for the money. Anyways, while strolling through 5th Avenue and seeing the crowd outside the Apple store I decided why not just go in the store and see what’s really special about the iPad. I’ve asked my Babycakes to review the iPad, so here you go:

Tips for a Stress-Free Voting Day

Ballot

1) Vote early if you can. Many states allow early or absentee voting. Record numbers are expected to show up at the polls this year. This will help you avoid painful lines, traffic jams and parking nightmares.

2) Do not wear T-Shirts or other paraphernalia in support of your candidate. In most states, “political activity” is not allowed within 50 feet of a building used for voting.
