A touch of customization.
Earlier this week I discovered an iOS app from the folks at Ford that allows you to customize a Ford Mustang any way you like (on the exterior). I downloaded it to try it out, but am surprised at the amount of fun I’m having using it.
The Mustang Customizer app began it’s life as a website but has been adapted to work on the iPhone and iPad, as well as Android devices.
Fresh from the lab.
As I mentioned, I’m having fun with this app, maybe too much fun. You be the judge:









Social to the core.
Quick aside: I’m a fan of not only Ford’s vehicles, but also their approach to social networking. This app and the Mustang Customizer site are no exception. You can submit your creations in head-to-head battles with other rides and can share your experiences on the top social sites. You can even embed your profile to show off your skills.

The Most Magical Place On Earth
Just over a week ago, my family and I returned from a vacation to Orlando, FL. This being our second trip there as a family, it was great seeing my oldest son’s reaction to rides that he’s been on before and how his tastes have changed. Likewise, I enjoyed watching my youngest son find his favorite rides and see his favorite characters. It was a great escape, and it was, as they bill it, magical.

Beetle Mania
While there are many cars I’d like to own, the VW bug doesn’t rank high on my list. It is, however, a beauty of a car with soft lines and curvy appearance. I submit the following for inspiration.

Sassy Siri
If you’re one of the many, many people that purchased the iPhone 4S last Friday, you’ve no-doubt played around with Siri. While this feature does have some useful and potentially beneficial uses, there’s the irresistible urge to find out just how much information and thought Apple and the Siri team have put into this service. The answer: A whole-heckofalot.
These are a few of my PG-esque queries.
