TechnoGeekery Show #39: iPhone Self Portraits… Everybody’s Doing It

TG iPhone Pix [ 3:57 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (3020)

Send YOUR cell phone self-portraits to cat @ technogeekery [dot] com!

Click HERE to leave Chassy Cat a RAVE REVIEW at iTunes for her Podcast O’ TechnoGeekery.

If you haven’t watched the SONG portion of my Horrible Evil Sidekick video at YouTube– just for kicks, you know– feel free to click on over! And rate me with 5 stars! And leave a comment. But… no pressure. I don’t even care.

Okay, TechnoGeeks, I confess… I have identified what could potentially be a Fatal Flaw in the Apple iPhone: Taking a self-portrait is HARD, yo?

I mean, no mirror for framing purposes?! What the…?! And that is not even to mention the fact that it is super hard to figure out where to press to actually SNAP the shot when your iPhone is turned AWAY from you.

But not to worry! Chassy Cat is on the case!

Now, there’s nothing I can do about the self-portrait mirror thing (Apple, are you listening?!) except to suggest you try pointing the camera lens in your general direction and telling everyone that you MEANT for the picture to be all slanty like that, thank you very much (“Hello? It’s avant-garde! DUH!”), but I DO have a solution that will make snapping the pix a breeze!

Watch and learn, Grasshopper(s). Watch and learn.

TechnoGeekery Show #12: Customized Postage Stamps… No, Really!

TG12customstamps [ 4:14 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (3083)

Please visit the USPS customized postage website for more details about creating your own customized stamps.

During the holiday season, even TechnoGeeks such as myself temporarily abandon the convenience of new media and the world wide web, in order to send holiday cheer to family and friends. You know, we get all traditional and whatnot… with the cards and packages and other assorted goodies that mere email (although it’s super convenient the other eleven months of the year!) can’t– and SHOULDN’T, by golly!– duplicate.

“But… we’re TechnoGeeks!” you cry. “We watch your show and e’rything!” Never fear. There IS a way to stay true to your TechnoGeeky self, while still adhering to traditional holiday mailing etiquette. Oh, yes.

Customized Postage Stamps.

Think of the possibilities! Stocking stuffers, office party favors, that gift for the person who has EVERYTHING. (Like my mother. Woman has everything. Impossible to buy for. But not this year! BOOYAH!)

I know, right? Watch and be amazed.
