Adobe is having a Launching Party for Adobe Creative Suite 3 (also known as Adobe CS3) today at 3:30PM. According to leaked intel prior to the launch, there are six all-new configurations of Adobe CS3, which include Adobe CS3 Design Premium and Design Standard editions; Adobe CS3 Web Premium and Web Standard editions; and Adobe CS3 Production Premium. Rounding out the product line is Adobe CS3 Master Collection, which combines 12 of Adobe’s new design and development applications in a single box.
Pricing is still unknown, and it’s also unknown when the software will be available to buy. I can’t wait to find out.

Yesterday, I went over to Adobe’s website to check up on their progress on CS3 (Creative Suite 3). I’ve been waiting a long time to be able to get the new version and am very excited for it’s arrival.
Adobe is having a screencast to launch the new product, which is highly anticipated, especially by owners of the new Intel based Macs. I’m currently a PC owner, but am in a contest to win a MacBook Pro at Rankaroo. Now, I’ve got to decide whether to buy the Mac or the PC version. I hope (a fool’s hope) that the new CS3 doesn’t make you pick between platforms. Doubtful, but I can still hope.
The official launch of Adobe® Creative Suite® 3 will take place on Tuesday, March 27, 2007, at 3:30 p.m. Eastern time.

How long can Sanjaya remain on American Idol? I think he has a great voice, but he doesn’t belong on American Idol. He just doesn’t have the persona to win it. But, it’s seems like week in and week out, he gets by, while better singers are getting weeded out. I guess you could blame it on Vote For the Worst.

I’m still trying to keep straight who is who. Cingular, AT&T, SBC, …
Here’s an article that gives some history (though not the recent name changes of cingular back to AT&T). It’s from 2005, but it’s still interesting.

Last week I made a post about Antonella Barba. Many people thought they were getting a juicy story but instead they got my case study of Technorati and internet traffic. Here’s the original post about Antonella Barba and a follow-up post about the original post about Antonella Barba. Really, I have absolutely no interest in Antonella at all. I am just interested in the dynamics of internet readership. Here are the stats from my google analytics account.

I was really curious this morning about what would happen if I wrote about Antonella, so I decided to play a little game. I was browsing Technorati’s Top Stories and saw that Antonella Barba has been #1 for a while now. I asked Antonella Barba to give me web traffic, and she did. My blog isn’t very popular, but that didn’t matter, because people wanted a juicy story, and they thought I might give it to them.
It has been just 4 hours since I posted about Antonella Barba and Melinda Doolittle, and during that time I got 175 unique visitors. Not bad for no real content about Antonella. Let’s see how many hits this one gets. Well, while you are here, check out the contest at Rankaroo. You could win a MacBook Pro, XBOX 360, Wii, iPod, etc… The first drawing is in just a day and we don’t have many entries yet!

I actually felt a little bit bad for Antonella yesterday, even though every week I kept telling my wife, “she’s gotta go!” Antonella is a pretty girl, but her voice is just no comparison to the front runner of American Idol, Melinda Doolittle.
Melinda Doolittle is by far the best singer in Season 6 of American Idol. She’s got character, she’s got an incredible voice, and she’s a refreshment to listen to and watch. As Simon said, “You little tiger! I thought we had a pussy cat here.” It’s seldom that any singer on American Idol is truly this musically talented. If you haven’t got a chance to watch idol this year yet, you have to hear her. I would buy her album today, if she had one recorded!
