It’s time to give back to Mother Earth. As of today, I am embarking on a three-week adventure into the wilderness of Madagascar. I am going to do some volunteer work on environmental conservation and a lemur study program. As you might know, the secluded island nation of Madagascar has some of the most interesting and different flora and fauna of any nation on earth. Unfortunately, due to an increase in human population, deforestation has led to many of the species being either endangered or have gone completely extinct. One of the animals unique to this land is the lemur. I am glad to be a part of this program.
For the next couple of weeks, I will live in the middle of the jungle with no electricity, no phone service, minimal contact and camp in a tent eating rice and beans everyday. So, I will not have internet service. Meanwhile, the blog will be maintained with timed posts and a contributor has offered to take care of it. The blog might not be the same for a few, but bear with us until we finish enjoying this adventure. Who knows, it could be better than when I ran it!

Apple plans to introduce not one but two iPhones this year. One will be an annual update of the usual while the other will be CDMA compatible. An iPhone with CDMA compatibility will open Apple’s doors to a new pool of customers, potentially that of Verizon Wireless & Sprint Nextel Corp. What a way to entice new customers. We are not talking about 4G iPhones yet.
Speculation on the iPhone: “The model is likely to be thinner and have a faster processor.” Isn’t that always the case?
