Hey everyone,

In this episode we talk about the market’s newest and coolest gadgets for back to school.

We gotta admit, this wasn’t our best episode, video-wise. We did take a while to edit and upload it also.

Nevertheless, it’s here. Enjoy.

Breaking News – Bell Canada has had a makeover!

With the firing of the Bell Beavers (the very successful advertising campaign with the two furry animals) last week, and many other employees, all of Canada was in shock. This massive firing is what apparently enabled Bell and BCE (Bell Canada Enterprises) to create a new, fresher, look.

To Hobson, it’s just the same old bell with a horrible mobility department, plus a new look. [check it out: http://www.bell.ca/home/] The new look is fresher and simpler, which Hobson dislikes. He loved the Beavers and the old traditional bell logo used for about 10 years. “To me, the website seems like it missing a major component and, for some reason, doesn’t seem as functional. It’s simply too plain for me,” says Hobson, ”We both hope that not only the company’s look will change, but hope they will change the way they conduct their business.”

We will keep an eye on this story and post new updates whenever something is discovered.

Planning in Progress.

Hey everyone!

We’re still working on it. Because we didn’t plan much beforehand, we’ve decided to take back SHARPcast for a bit to plan – we’ll be back in full on techy business soon – so stay tuned!

subSHARP Episode 1

Hey Everyone, 

First of all, we’d like to apologize that this has been our first post in 2 months – man, the days just seem to go by too quickly! Spring break also really messed up our filming schedule.

Nevertheless, we have our first subSHARP Episode!

It’s snowing in April!

Sound weird? Then check it out, it really is.

 

P.S. Sorry if Hobson seemed weird, Colin “tortured” him with the LED light earlier and you know how it is to have those blotches so you can’t see anything in front of you.

Episode 4 – We’re at UBC!

The sunshine is here and we’re lovin’ it!

Hey everyone,

Taking a week off…

Hey fellow viewers, we’re taking a week off.

We’ve both been very busy the past few days…and interestingly enough, we’re both sick(Colin was sick and now Hobson is). 

So, even though we’re taking the week off,  we still want you to keep on visiting  once in a while.

Hobson & Colin

P.S. We’re still working on our compression and getting this listed on iTunes, we just didn’t have the time.
