Verizon is getting in the holiday spirit by giving away an extra gigabyte of data. They are adding it on to your current billing cycle as well as the next billing cycle. Awesome!
To get it added to your account, visit the following link from Verizon.

Well it’s the end of an era for us techies. Radio Shack filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy last week. Some stores will close and others will be purchased by Sprint.
For my local followers here in Illinois, I only saw the Savoy store on the list and not Champaign or Urbana.
Here is a preliminary list of stores that are closing.

I remember going to RadioShack in the 80s with my parents and buying a Tandy 1000 TX computer. It had no hard drive (ran on floppy drives), a 286 processor and used the MS-DOS command line operating system. Now that makes me feel old!
The folks working there actually knew stuff about computers and electronics and would help us with anything. I remember getting a shortwave radio one time and they made me a custom adapter to hook up an external antenna.
Anyone have any good, bad, or funny stories about their RadioShack visits before they turned into PhoneShack? 🙂 Post in the comments below.

There is finally some good news for Verizon Wireless customers. They have lowered their prices for many of the data plans by around $10/mo. I am on the 4GB plan and normally it’s $70/mo but now it has dropped to $60/mo. However, you don’t receive this price decrease automatically. You have to go into your account and change your plan to the newer price option. If you choose, you can continue paying $70/mo and receive 6GB of data.
To change your plan, log in to your Verizon Wireless account and go to:
