Review sites like PC Mag and Cnet should weed out old reviews. Example. What are you going to do with a 2-year-old camcorder review? It's good they show the date, though (I guess), so you know not to bother with it.

A JWT survey report says women are more likely than men to own game consoles?

Can that be right, even considering the Wii? Does it count moms who would be the family member to buy and register a product for a little kid, maybe?

If it is true we all have to reformulate our idea of the geek. Better still, put the geek stereotype to rest because plugging in is mainstream now.

The Cadillac Database celebrates the absurd 1959 fin.

Wouldn't it be fun if a car maker produced new Mini Cooper-sized old caddies (I'd prefer a '64 -- pink, please) or a teeny tiny 60s VW microbus?

Chrysler struck some kind of psychographic chord (though I'm not sure what kind) with the PT cruiser, which I've heard described as a new Chrysler that looks like an old Ford. I understand it was conceived before the Daimler partnership, now over.

I'm not an insider. Just speculating. What possessed a big car company to take such a risk on that odd funky shape? Some quick rare burst of inspiration? I don't think so. I believe there are creative people in every big organization, but usually they just can't get near a sympathetic audience. So hats off to whoever thought of the Cruiser, and two hats off to the person who said "do it."

What a darling little car, but why does it have to cost $27k or even $17k in Canada?

How do you get four people in there?

This costs more than the 1G flash drive I got for my son recently, but I still want one!
