10:10AM Rosa Golijan | David Pogue instantly found a fan in me with his Apple-themed rendition of Britney Spears’ “Oops…I did it again” as memories of mornings spent singing into a hairbrush flooded back. Granted Pogue actually sounds better than both Britney and I. More »

Pogue Reviews the OLPC
9:11AM Brian Lam | David Pogue is right about the OLPC in his NYTimes column this week.

(David, I’m kidding. Nice column this week.) [NYTimes] More »
