Now that Christmas has past, the rush to buy the most wanted gifts of the year are over. As such, some of you big babies didn’t get what you wanted ;) The one item that people bitched about the most that they didn’t get was the iPhone 4S, which surprisingly is not on the infographic of the most popular gifts by year, for the past 30 years by Ultimate Coupon.
I hope that everyone enjoyed the Christmas holiday and spent time with their families, friends and loved ones. Christmas is a time to embrace each other and reflect on the year and celebrate. For those that celebrate it religiously, it’s a spiritual celebration of Jesus Christ, hence the name Christmas (Christ’s mass). The point being, it’s not primarily about getting presents, although exchanging gifts is part of it.
For this holiday season, heading back to classes won’t involve lugging a heavy book bag from one end of the campus to the other. More and more, going to school means hooking up to the Internet from the dorm or a spare room. Learning through online classes is changing more than education — it’s changing the shopping lists for gifts going under the trees of college students. Here are three top picks especially appropriate for the plugged-in student.
Siri is really popular these days, so it’s no big surprise that even Santa Clause is getting in on the action. Apple’s new ad featuring the jolly Kris Kringle shows that even Santa can use a little help spreading happiness and gifts all over the world.
In Kaunas, Lithuania, getting funding from your local government has proven to be difficult during these tough economic times. So locals had to be creative for their city Christmas tree this year. Instead of paying buku bucks for a tree with lots of lights and ornaments to make it look nice, they one up’d the rest of the world in ingenuity.
To All, I just wanted to take the time to say Merry Christmas and to have a Happy Holiday! I also wanted to thank all my supporters and readers. I cannot do this without you and appreciate everyone that takes the time to read and support my blog. It means the world to me. Thank you and have a safe holiday (read more for video!).
Google is featuring their holiday doodle today. True to form, Google changed their logo to something which typically represents holidays, famous birthdays, popular milestones, famous people, etc.
Dear Santa, did you really think you would ride in that classic sleigh of yours forever? I didn’t think so. It’s time to give Rudolph a break.
Thanks to Nissan, Ford, Mazda, Porsche and many others, some really great concept sleighs have been designed for you. I showcased my favorites here for you. But if you want to see them all, go to Digital Trends and they have them all for you to check out. Choose wisely, Santa. Merry Christmas!
