It starts, NFL Fantasy Football Draft 1
by apexad on Sep.03, 2010, under News
So, in just a few hours I’ll be starting my first NFL Fantasy Football draft. My rules are simple, take a RB and a WR in rounds 1 and 2, best available till round 5, then grab Brett Favre, then from there it is best available until we’ve got a defensive break, grab a defense, best available, last round pick up a kicker. Easy! I’ll post my team when the draft is over. I am excited!
How to get here
by apexad on Aug.25, 2010, under News
So, the main title on this page says ‘apexad.net’ and that’s basically where you are at. However, I’m a bit of a domain collector (I’ve got 13 now I think, kind of hard to keep track, I use 3 different registrars). Anyway, all of the following domains redirect to this blog:
http://apexad.net
http://alexmartin.me

Rapidshare search
by apexad on Aug.25, 2010, under News
As someone who has been on the internet for more than half of my life, I’ve dealt with the ordeal of trying to find a lot of things on the internet. That might be an early iphone firmware beta, it might be the owner’s manual for my jeep liberty, and so much more. Torrents are great for a lot of things, but many of these things are posted on file sharing sites like Rapidshare quicker than they’ll show up in a torrent, but rapidshare has no built in search feature. Enter Rapidshare Search, a search engine for Rapidshare and other file sharing sites. Go there now, and try searching for something you’ve been looking for. You’ll be amazed at what you will find. Rapidshare search is a sponsor of apexad.net
Upgraded to wordpress 3.01
by apexad on Aug.21, 2010, under News
I upgraded to wordpress 3.01 on this blog. It did not go without a hitch. I accidentally deleted all my uploads. Thankfully I’m a smart web developer and had just told dreamhost to back up my database. Everything is back in place. I’ve decided to change the theme to a new one. Maybe this will give me some motivation to start posting again.
iPhone OS 4 on my iPhone 3G
by apexad on Jun.22, 2010, under iPhone
I’ve updated my iPhone to the iOS 4.0 GM (not the public build). It is jailbroken with redsn0w. I’ve got Game Center still on it (my alias is ‘apex’). My favorite jailbreak apps like Flashlight and sbsettings work. iBooks is broken. I consolidated all my apps into 1 single extra page besides the main one.
Made this post using the iOS supporting WordPress for iPhone app.

I’m at 94% in Madden ’10 for trophies. Only ones I am missing are:

Anyone out there who also needs these trophies? Maybe we can team up and play some online co-op action!
Less blu, more green
by apexad on May.09, 2010, under Playstation 3
I’ve been slowly reducing my Blu-Ray collection in order to recover some money from the investment. I tried going to a multimedia exchange place, but they would only give store credit. So, like always, I sold them on eBay and recovered about $50. I did not sell any Blu-Ray books, however I did sell the 3 Pirates of Caribbean movies. Have no fear though, I plan to buy them back when money is a little better. I am going to get the Steel book versions. It will be the first steel book versions if movies that I have. For the time being though, my collection stands at about 60 movies on Blu-Ray.
New url: alexmartin.me
by apexad on May.04, 2010, under News
As I mentioned on Twitter awhile back, I bought the domain alexmartin.me to use as I see fit. Right now though I’ve just set it up to point to this blog. I’ll try and come up with something better for it soon. Perhaps even another re-hash of apexad.net is in order. We shall see.
