PSA: Free WiFi at McDonald’s Starting Today
McDonald’s has announced that it has started offering free WiFi at 11,500 of its 14,000 locations. So after you grease up your hands with a Big Mac value meal, you can get crap all over your laptop or smartphone.
Do any of you use WiFi at McDonald’s? If not, will you start doing so now that it’s free?
PSA: Reminder — Xbox Live One-Year Gold Subscription
Here’s a friendly reminder that Amazon has one year of Xbox Live Gold on sale for $34.99. The deal is good until January 16. Even if you still have several months left on your subscription, this is a great price to extend your service for another year. Plus, it would help out my site!

PSA: BlackBerry Internet Service is Down
Attention BlackBerry users — Research in Motion is experiencing a major BlackBerry Internet Service outage. Email has been out for millions of people in America and Canada. RIM has acknowledged the issue and is working on fixing it.
It’s totally freaking me out that my RayBerry 9000 isn’t going off every 30 seconds. For a while, I thought the world forgot about me.
Btw, one of the reasons I want the Google Nexus One is so I don’t have to walk around with this ridiculous cover on my BlackBerry. Then again, it’s kind of funny.

PSA: December Xbox Live Deals of the Week
Microsoft marketing tool Major Nelson revealed the upcoming Xbox Live deals of the week for December. They are:
Week of December 14:
Lips: Coldplay Track Pack for 240 Microsoft Points
December 21 through December 27:
Shadow Complex for 800 points
Week of December 28:
The Maw for 400 Microsoft Points
If you haven’t tried Shadow Complex, it’s worth playing if you like old-school 2D shooters like Contra and Metroid. As a karaoke aficionado, I’m always down for more Lips tracks. I haven’t tried The Maw, but a few of my friends are pretty high on it. Most importantly, saving money is always a good thing, so take advantage of these sales if you have the means.
