The Sound of Touch with HP




This evening i'll be in New York city thanks to HP. I'll be attending an invite only event that will be held at Terminal 5 which is located by the Hudson River. I've had a great relationship with HP. If any of you remember I gave away an HP BeatsByDre laptop and an HP Eprinter previously so I'm excited to see the new HP and Windows8 line of PCs. Maybe i might have another giveaway, you never know.


Just a few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to checkout the HP TouchSmart and HP Envy X2.

I really liked the HP Envy X2 because it doubles as a tablet and notebook with it's detachable setup. When checking the new line of HP they had Windows8 on the machines and it had a very colourful and simple interface look. I'm looking forward to trying it out and exploring it more. The touch screen interface is really interesting especially for the desktop models. Look for a BIG launch of @Microsoft Windows8 everywhere soon!

I'm looking forward to an interactive PC experience tonight with Far East Movement -Hip hop superstars. I did not even know they had a song with Justin Bieber and over 18 million views. So follow me on Twitter for all the live updates and action tonight. You can follow the hashtag #HPwindows8 It should be a fun and creative night. :-)

New York City Never Sleeps - Wrong!!

I had the opportunity to visit New York City recently with friends. Here is a quick overview of our trip with @Canadian88 and @beachrockinc cheapdude.com Now I've been to NYC several times but this trip was unique because it was very unplanned and random. The way a trip with guys should be. While exploring the city, I had a smartphone and camera in hand to take photos of pretty much anything that caught my attention. I took a photo of 1 person who was sleeping. I took the pic because of the randomness and let's be honest it's funny at first!

After walking many streets of New York, I continued to take more photos and suddenly noticed a pattern that lots of people in NYC are sleeping. It was not my initial idea to take photos of people sleeping it just became apparent and random. So here is some photos from my observations. It is sad that most of the pics are people who are probably homeless. What began as just an observation became a reality we live. Hopefully this addresses and brings to life the real life issues people are experiencing in the USA and in other cities. I'm not a political guy but there is obviously something wrong with these pictures.

I'm not sure how this post will be received but I'll let you know that it started as a joke and became more of a reality check to me. Going on this trip made me learn not to take anything for granted and to appreciate what life gives to you. Tell me what you think. What's your reaction?
