Japan Earthquake and Pacific Tsunami Donations

I'm sure you've seen or heard the news by now. Bad things happen all over the world. If you want to donate to help the recent events of the Japan earthquake, the Pacific Tsunami, the civil unrest in the Middle East, families of the military or just to any cause ... the Red Cross is accepting DONATIONS!!!

Google Crisis Response also has great information regarding the event as well as a "Person Finder" with nearly 19,000 84,000 pieces of information when I last checked. I have embedded the tool below ... so if you are looking for someone or have information about someone that is missing, please try the person finder below.

UPDATE: Decided to give some extra time to the Salvation Army. Donation info below (straight from the SA website):

1. Donate online at donate.salvationarmyusa.org
2. Call 1-800-SAL-ARMY
3. Text the words “Japan” or “Quake” to 80888 to make a $10 donation. (Please ensure that you respond “YES” to the Thank You message you receive.)

Just a word of caution ... while texting your donation is pretty easy, it could take a month or two for the funds to make it to where it needs to go. If you want your money to have a more immediate impact, donate over the phone or online. Also, if you are going to donate, make sure it is a reputable organization like Red Cross or Salvation Army. Some organization that collect funds take a portion of the money to cover expenses for doing so. So again ... for a direct impact ... donate directly to a solid and trustworthy organization.

UPDATE 2: Apple is also collecting funds for the Red Cross to aid the victims of the earthquake and tsunami. Very easy to do actually. If you have ever bought anything on the iTunes store, then your credit card is already on file. Here is the link.

Apple updates 6th generation iPod Nano

I think I'll file this under my "About friggin time" category. Apple finally ... FINALLY ... released an update to the 6th generation nano. It's got two big items:

1. Completely turn off the iPod, rather than just put the device to sleep.
2. Control music or radio playback using the Sleep/Wake button without having to look at the device.

For more info, check out the apple support page for this update. Hopefully this should quite the rumblings about how you can't power off the nano. Simmer down now! Simmer ...

Flat out funny!

Watch ... laugh ... nothing else to say ...

1000 Free AT&T Rollover Minutes

While I'm on the topic of free money ... here is a little gem I ran across yesterday. For those of you with an AT&T iPhone, you can get 1000 roll over minutes as part of a marketing promotion aimed at keeping you from defecting to Verizon. Just SMS the word 'YES' to 11113020 and you will get a text back stating that 1000 bonus rollover minutes will be added to your account. Be aware that accepting this offer will enroll you into their special offers alerts. So you might get occasional texts where AT&T is hocking their goods. You can always opt out of their promotions by hitting up the Marketing Preferences found under the "My Profile" section of your online account once you log in.
