Just a quick note to let everybody know that I’ve officially released the NoSlang.com iPhone App. The app is a full internet slang dictionary for the iPhone. It’s available for $0.99 in the App Store (just search for NoSlang) I’d love for everybody to check it out and leave me some feedback. Thanks!

Last week, Twitter – the extremely popular in California but never really heard of on the east coast micro blogging platform – announced that it was placing new limits on its API restrictions. White listed (meaning hand approved by Twitter) services will have a new limit of 70,000 accesses per hour, while non white-listed accounts […]

A new scientific theory suggests that the universe could, in fact, be nothing more than a hologram.

News was just released that Steve Jobs will be temporarily stepping away from Apple. This means their stock is going to lose a TON of money. But does that mean apple will be any worse? It’s too late to sell your stock if you still own some, but I’m thinking of buying more after it […]

As Noslang.com – my internet slang dictionary and translator continues to grow, I often find it necessary to branch out into other forms of slang. So far, I’ve branched out into british slang, drug slang, and bad words. Thanks to a ton of submissions though, I was finally able to branch out into World of […]
