• Commented on Presented Without Comment: Newsom for Lieutenant Governor State Convention Video

• Commented on Your iPhone: On SFPD's Most Likely To Be Stolen List
  If you ride public transit etc. probably a good idea to invest in MobileMe which has a "Find my iPhone" feature. I've read a few stories where people and cops have recovered phones this way, using it to pinpoint the...

• Commented on Are Dropped Calls AT&T's Fault, Or Your iPhone's?

• Commented on Some Of Our Best Friends Are Bigots: Wharf T-Shirts' Stance Re. Chicks, Dicks
  I wonder how many of these they actually sell? Clearly they're a tad embarassed by it given its less-than-visible location in the display. A well-worded letter from GLAAD to the store will get that taken off the shelf. I doubt...
