Decent stuff:

Actually constructive, somewhat amusing articles. I need to do more of these.

Aquafresh® Extreme Clean® Review.
No introduction needed.

The Gibson
May it rest in peace.

Creating a Monster.
Herein, I swap lenses between my sunglasses. I keep this up because people keep emailing to tell me that they were trying to do the same thing and my article actually helped them.

Gourmet Cooking On A Budget. Or: Hey, people might actually pay money for this stuff...
Just what the title says. Yum!

 

Old and/or dumb stuff:

I didn't go through a whole lot of teenage angst, but I sure did like to complain about things.

Why Diamond (Now SonicBLUE) makes good hardware, but their programmers should die horrible deaths.
A general rant about how I like my Rio but hate the software.

Size matters. You don't.
Don't complain about small buttons.

How not to look like a dork when using technology. Or: Viva la cell phone!
Exactly what the title says.

Let's leave animals on the sidelines. Or: Attack of the Animals-Playing-Sports Movies Plague of Doom™.
Animals playing sports. Why I hate them, and you should too.

Vitally important things that game developers should know about making good games! Or: Eli gets bored and decides to complain about stuff that he really doesn't know about.
Just me whining about things that bug me in computer games.

 

Newsletter Articles for The Computer Place

One of the best parts of my job at The Computer Place was writing an occasional article for the newsletter. I finally got around to pulling them all together and puting them up here. Keep in mind that some of these are from a few years ago, they were in a black and white newsletter (so no pictures), and were written with the general public (read: not geeks) in mind.
