The Most Spammed Website Around

Windows VistaThe definition of spam, defined by none other then WIKI. Careful, symptoms might include nausea, dizziness, and partial schizophrenia. Wiki Spam.

Iphone SOHO Store InvasionOn June 28th, 2007 my mom and I got up early in the morning, packed our laptops, water, beach chairs, and met up at the Apple SOHO store in the city.

Both of us have never done anything like this before and given that I just convinced my mom to by some shares in Apple, romanticized to her in following technology news, I did not need to twist her arm to come along with me and share in the experience.
