Over the holiday weekend I found myself in the land of Apple, Google, HP and others. I only managed to run over to Google’s Mountain View campus for a few minutes to meet with a few folks but it was my first visit and I wanted to see a few of the things that I’d read about.

AT&T Drops Silly Lawsuit Against Verizon Wireless
Oh goodness. I’m glad that Verizon and AT&T have dropped those silly lawsuits against each other over those ridiculous 3G network ads. I was really losing sleep over them. I have to wonder, though, whether or not AT&T’s Luke Wilson ads were even worth the money. Who cares what he has to say? I’m not sure who handles AT&T’s …
Fring Brings Video Chat to the iPhone
Just playing catch up from the holiday, folks. Fring announced yesterday that video calls are now available on the iPhone and iPod Touch.

First Look: ‘Lovely Bones’ and Peter Jackson’s Virtuoso Vistas
The Lovely Bones: I’ve seen it, and I’m still processing.
This is such an emotional and complex storyline – adapted from the sweeping novel by Alice Sebold – that in some ways the project is an overwhelming experience. But judged purely as a visual journey, it ranks right up there as one of the year’s more audacious …
New episode of “Eastwick” on ABC
Jane Austen and Zombies and TV (and Twitter)
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a television production company in possession of a good zombie tale must be in need of a twitter account.
The prim and proper meet the undead in Seth Grahame-Smith’s surprising literary mash-up Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. And while you were apparently elbowing your way towards that …
