NY Times’ Pogue-O-Matic Guides Your Gadget Shopping, Sets My Heart Aflutter
4:30PM Elaine Chow | Maybe it’s because I have the hugest crush on David Pogue of the New York Times, but I find his recently released product finder guide, the Pogue-O-matic, absolutely adorable… and useful too! The Pogue-O-Matic is divided into four parts: cameras, camcorders, smartphones and televisions. If you were planning on getting people any of the above for the holidays, stop by and have little e-Pogue explain what details you should look out for. Being a gadget blogger with a finger on the pulse of the latest and greatest, I personally don’t need the advice. But I’ll be stopping by anyway… for you, Pogue. Just. For. You.

Where Is David Pogue’s MacBook Air Review?
1:22PM Wilson Rothman | Wednesday night around this time, we like to check in with our favourite columnists. Tonight we expected MacBook Air reviews from Walt Mossberg at WSJ, Ed Baig at USA Today, Steven Levy at Newsweek and of course, David Pogue at the venerable New York Times. Only, when I refreshed my browser at 9pm, Pogue’s Jan. 24 State of the Art column turned out to cover Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac and MacSpeech Dictate, rather than the far sexier (and more controversial) MacBook Air. Can someone please tell me what’s the deal? (And by someone, I mean, a body so far out of the loop that any explanation will be a very wild guess.) More »
