Steve Ballmer finally stepping down as CEO of Microsoft

Well, it has finally come, Ballmer has announced he will retire from Microsoft within the year. It hasn’t exactly been the trail of rainbows and unicorns we all hoped it would be. The reign of Steve has been a rocky one to put it mildly, marked with multiple product failures as well as multiple discontinued products. Many have said this Steve simply doesn’t have the technical prowess or vision of Gates. And it’s hard to argue that. As a sidekick, Ballmer was a great marketing man. He could build hype and desire for products and built Windows into a love child of the company. But with Ballmer in charge the company lacked the technical bite of the bygone Gates era. The product offerings simply weren’t as sharp. There have dozens of blunders such as Vista, Kin and Surface to name a few. Not to mention the on again off again gaming and hardware department. And in my opinion, Ballmer has […]

Money Talks LTQ Jobs and Rewards List–Crime City

A new event has shown up and it’s another Limited Time Quest (LTQ) event. Hopefully you saved some Energy from the last one. I got to Level 23 and called it quits. The last two needed way more Energy than I was willing to invest. So I hit this morning fully charged and ready to go. This event is broken down into three pieces. It looks like the prizes get bigger for each section, then reset once you’re finished. This could be kind of interesting, but I bet it will be brutal by the time you finish Part Two. Here is a quick list of items as presented by BigMoney. For a complete list, click the link below. PART ONE TOTALS: 21,760 energy 5,866 job XP + 1,100 reward XP = 6,966 XP total 2619 atk / 2315 def raw stats Money Talks: Part One Rewards 1. 20xp, Pack Hacker [melee] (243/363) 2. 40xp, $4600 3. 60xp, 122RP 4. 80xp, […]

The Black Rose–Beat the Elite–Epic Boss Event–Crime City

It’s time for YET ANOTHER Crime City Event. There are 3 Events already going on at once. We have the Annual Crime Spree, Investment Schemes, Party Crashers. Because that wasn’t enough Gree added the Black Rose Epic Boss Event to the mix. Ok seriously, this is getting out of hand. One event is cool. Two is can be interesting. But 5 running at once, what the hell? Gree needs to seriously tone this done a touch. There is such a thing as too much of a good thing. But here is The Black Rose. A new Epic Boss Event with the usual prizes. This is the new tiered event where you get a new prize at 20, 30 and 40 wins. I think I’ll get to Level 20 and call the event done. I’ve already moved on past the Annual Crime Spree. I got to Level 32 and will focus my attention on the Party Crashers event. For the level […]

Audials One 10 for $19 from Avanquest with coupon code ADUGSAVE

Audials is turning out to be a fantastic tool for recording Video and Audio content from the web. You can do simply things like download YouTube videos and search for music, but you can also do more complex tasks like record video from Netflix, Amazon, Hulu and others as well as music from Grooveshark, Pandora, Last.fm and from Internet Radio Stations. It’s basically the Swiss Army Knife of Internet media. And now, you can have the full blown Audials One 10, which contains Tunebite, Radiotracker, Movieraptor and Mediaraptor all in one package. This lets you record movies, search for music, convert between video and audio formats and even rip DVDs. It’s an impressive piece of software to be sure.

Plus, you can install Audials to multiple machines with […]
