I need to post more in here… time to blow off some of the dust.
So, what has been keeping me busy? Well, earlier this year I finished my new “food blog” which I talked about here. It’s really great… I’m spending 90% of my time over there, so please go check it out:
Food Geekery: Real Food. Real Geek.
I even gave it its own Facebook fan page (go be a fan… I’d appreciate it):
Food Geekery on Facebook
So what does this mean for FlishFun.com? Nothing. Don’t worry, I’ll still be around to postmy randomness… more updates will be on the food side of things (as it is my new hobby), but I still need a place to put my political, technical and other random posts, so don’t you worry. Just be sure to head over to Food Geekery and look around the place! 
I recently did a review on the iTech Bluetooth keyboard for Neowin… here’s a taste:
For years now I’ve been using the same keyboard at home, a Microsoft Wireless Desktop Elite Keyboard. It’s not a bad board, thought it has seen better days. While looking around for a replacement I came across what appears to be the Keyboard of the Future! Not only is it small, compact and connects via Bluetooth, but it has no physical keys! This “keyboard” is actually a laser projection that will display a “virtual” keyboard on any flat surface.
The “geek” part of me instantly decided this would be the best keyboard ever, but the logical part of me had some hesitations. How well would it work? Would it be able to handle a very fast typing speed with accuracy? Would it be comfortable to use? Well, thanks to our good friends at ThinkGeek, I was able to get a hold of one of these devices to try out and give you all a taste of what it’s like to live in the future of computing.
Click here to read the whole thing, and stay tuned for my next review!! Oh, and here’s a nice pic of it in action:
