Best Buy Mobile, NYC New York
Since Engadget mentioned the Best Buy Mobile that just opened in Times Square NYC, I thought I’d drop by for a couple pictures of the store itself:
While I was there, I got to peek at a few older-gen phones, none of which impressed me much. The White Chocolate by LG is quite nice, but it’s bulky and clunky-looking, much like the Zune:
This Sony Ericsson Walkman phone is much the same–cool, but too big for my tastes. I want something sleeker:
Why is it that nothing substantially better in form factor and sexiness than the Razor V3 has hit US markets yet? I want a metal-cased phone, slim, contoured, with fancy edging and detail touches.
Missy Elliott, Marry Me Please!
I’ve decide that I want to marry Missy Elliott. See:
That’s reason number 1. Number two–she makes killer music. Oh, and did I mention that I’m Elliott Back? Missy Elliott? Mr. Elliott Elliott? WOOOOOOO!
Perl Style: The If / Else Statement
While reading Perl Best Practices I can across a section which began:
Don’t cuddle an else
It turns out that a cuddled else looks like
} else {
while the uncuddled else places the else on a new line
}
else {
However, I can’t agree. The way I see it, not merging the else and the closing brace of the if statement simply wastes space. And, it doesn’t hurt alignment because you can still follow the else block–it’s just two positions off what it would have been otherwise. What do you think?
