Tethered Thunderbolt Faster Than My Office DSL
I love my new Thunderbolt Android phone on Verizon’s network. It’s a battery hog, but I’ve managed to tease out almost a full day’s usage with judicious battery management. The best thing, though, is Verizon’s 4G LTE network, which kicks ass. I just moved into new office space in downtown SF, and we have AT&T’s DSL here. We’ll probably get a new...

Oh, @Posterous, how do I love thee!
I just finished configuring one of my subdomains to point to Posterous, so you should be seeing this post at posts.pberg.com. It couldn’t have been simpler, which is one of the many things I love about Posterous. It’s just so damn easy! I’ve also managed to embed my Twitter feed with a neat little trick from Jed Fonner. This should be a sweet little setup going forward. ...

Is the iPad Bad for Business?
Yesterday I had a brief Twitter exchange with Damon Brown (@browndamon) of BNet after he wrote this article: iPad 2: No Matter What Jobs Says, It’s Still Not Great For Business. His main reasons for why the iPad is not great for business came down to hygiene, a lack of USB, no Flash, and traditional software not being available in app form. Are those really the best reasons he could come up...

Joe's Cable Car burgers - an overview
Joe grinds his own fresh chuck, and only uses naturally fed, hormone-free beef. The difference in meat quality is obvious. The meat has real flavor, and the coarse grind makes for a juicy, soft, and great textured burger. Prices are $11+ per burger (no fries included), so it’s not exactly cheap, but these burgers are definitely delicious. The decor is a hoot, and Joe is an awesome guy. Well...
