Help! Nina is in search of a new PC!

by Nina Pena on April 8th, 2009

It all started at CES this year. There I am in front of the hotel after 3 days of CES boondoggles and I had this jerk of a bell hop making me wait an hour for a car that I clearly could see was not being used.

So after being told I should just walk my tootsies down the 3 mile strip; I blew up on him.

Unbelievable! I mean I was in 4 inch heals and seriously what happened to the customer is always right?! So after an hour of waiting plus a theatrical display of dissatisfaction…I threw my tote down. Accident #1!

I am in love with Spinvox

by Nina Pena on April 6th, 2009

A pal of mine asked me to try out Spinvox and immediately I was attracted to the features of this service. Spinvox is a great service you can get on your cell/ smart phone and it converts all voicemails into texts. It then can convert it into email, blogs, walls or space. Convenience is imperative and also needed when running your own small business. I work from home and my phone does get used for emailing and conf. calls; this service is amazing! I am in love with Spinvox!

First off who has time to spend 2 hours listening to voice mails these days?! How great is it to get a text of your missed voicemail/ call?! Second is that you can use this with Skype which I use pretty often, especially for international calls (or my podcast). Lastly in the very near future you will be able to get your texts while flying.

I cannot express what a great service Spinvox provides, it honestly makes me wonder…who needs voicemail when you can have Spinvox?! I love you Spinvox.

Do games control your spending?

10120140-free-playstation-3-ps3-with-mobile-phone-contracts1 If one of your all time favorite games were getting some enhancements and would no longer be compatible with your current game system would you buy a new one?

I would.

I would purchase whatever console came out with The Oregon Trail in HD. That was the first computer game I ever played, and I still remember the black and green screen – it was amazing.
