I’ve had bad experiences with BulBul in the past and I wanted to share them with my readers in the way I like to write and talk. Apparently the webdesigner of the site and the people from BulBul have seen this and weren’t too happy with it. They have threatened to sue me so I’m hereby appologizing to the company and everybody that works there. You are all human and you try the best you can. I have to accept that people are just creatures with limited capabilities and that even I am not perfect. I make mistakes too and I hope you will forgive me for that.
My comments on BulBul were exaggerated and insulting. The core is of course the same. Your product does look like a copy and the name sounds like a copy too. On your website it is really funny in my opinion that every page has content but your brand and concept page, where you can say who you are and what you as a company want to carry out, is empty. The rest is, and this I mean sincerely, over the top and cruel. I take it back.
If you have any other complaints, please let me know and don’t threaten me with lawsuits. One e-mail with a polite request will suffice in the future.
Deniz aka Pabuc!

Arabada navigasyon kullanan herkes TomTom markasını biliyor. Şimdi bizim millette bunun bir de bir kopyasını yapıp BulBul‘u çıkartmışlar! Marka ve konsept sayfasına baktığınızda ne kadar salak oldukları belli oluyor. Kendi domainlerini bile alamamışlar, haha! Her neyse, TomTom yakında iPhone app’le gelip bu kakalakları ezip geçer!
Everybody that uses car navigation knows Dutch navigation manufacturer TomTom, but now there is a Turkish rip-off called BulBul (which translates into ‘FindFind’). Just take a look at their brand and concept on their site and you know that these dweebs are not only bad at ripping off other people, but simply can’t come up with anything on their own. They were so stupid they couldn’t even register their own brand name bulbul.com! Anyways, TomTom remains the best car navigation manufacturer and since they’re now also working on an iPhone TomTom app, soon I’ll be using it while walking down the maze-like Istanbul streets!
Yeni Diesel reklamında oynuyan ünlü rapçi Common nerden nereye gelmiş?! On sene önce Amsterdam’da izlediğimde promo CD’lerini bedava dağıtıyordu ve şimdi aktör, yazar, manken olmuş! Helal sana Common! Müzik yapmayı ihmal etmede yoksa aramız bunca sene sonra bozulur!
Talk about crossovers, damn! Common going rapping to acting to modelling! I love his music and I feel like he’s one of the most gifted lyricists so I don’t mind that much that he’s making some extra bucks with this Diesel ad. As long as this means he can make more music he likes making and we like listening to!
Flip video kameraların bir sene önce çıkmasına rağmen daha Türk basınında bu hype’la ilgili pek haber bulamadık daha. LeBron James MVP ödül töreninde bütün takım arkadaşlarına birer Flip verince, araştıralım dedik. Ne mi bulduk? Herkezin salak gibi hype ettiği boktan bir ürünmüş. TechCrunch sitesinde bir yazar kendi Canon dijital kamerası ve Flip’in özelliklerini karşılaştırmış ve Canon her noktada Flip’e bin basıyor. Siz sadece iPhone’unuzun yanında bir gadget daha istiyorsanız hiç düşünmeyin ve kendinize bir Flip alın!
Although it has been over a year since the first model of the Flip cameras to come out, they still haven’t reached Turkey. After seeing LeBron James at the MVP press conference handing them out to his teammates, we did some research about the ‘it’ camera of the year. And what did we find? It’s a piece of shit hyped by some beasts that can’t tell ass from dingleberry. The comparison on TechCrunch between the author’s Canon digital camera’s video recording options and that of the Flip’s were pretty much killing the latter. So even though the Flip doesn’t record the bling bling on your pinkie ring it does give you the option to share your blurred video immediately on YouTube. Go Shine and get your Flip here!

Mr. Jones saatleri komik ve şık tasarımlarıyla ilgi çekiyor! Saatlerin yaratıcısı, tasarımcı Crispin Jones ve normal koleksiyonun yanında şimdi bir de az sayıda yapılmıs ‘limited’ler çıkartmış! Bizim en sevdiğimiz saatler bunlar: The Accurate (Doğru Olan) saati sizi bütün saniyeler, dakikalar, ve saatlerin sonunda ne olduğunu hatırlatan bir saat. The Average Day (Vasat Bir Gün) saati bir gün de nelere zaman harcadınızı gösteriyor ve belki ne kadar boş olduğunu görünce bunu değiştirmek istiyebilirsiniz! The Decider (Karar Veren) saati tıpkı Magic 8 Ball gibi çalışıyor ve zor durumlarda kendiniz seçim yapamadığınızda size yardım eder! Anladığınız kadar herkeze bir saat yapmış, Mr. Jones arkadaşımız!
Mr. Jones watches are humorous design watches that grasp the meaning in life in their simplicity! Created by designer Crispin Jones, the watches have limited editions and a permanent collection and we have selected our top three: the Accurate, which reminds you of what’s going to happen after the clock has ticked enough for you. The Average Day, which basically shows you how you spend your average day. And last but not least, the Decider! This watch works like a Magic 8 Ball and helps you answer everyday questions! As you can understand, we’re pretty sure that there’s a watch for everyone!

iPod Shuffle’ler güncellendi ve bir birinden renkli seçenekler olmazsa da, yeni Shuffle’lar 4GB kapasitesinde ve iki şık renkte çıktı: siyah ve gümüş! Daha küçük ve ince olan iPod Shuffle’da artık düğmeler de azalmış ve kontrollerin çoğu kulaklıkta bulunuyor! Ama en güzel yenilliği ise VoiceOver fonksıyonu: dinlediğiniz veya çalma listenizin adını artık size söylüyor. Ne? Evet, iPod Shuffle konuşuyor. Sessi biraz özürlü gibi olsa bile, baya cool bir ilk! Amerika’da $79 Dolar’a Apple‘de satılmaya başlamış bile!
So there we have it: Apple has gone and shaken off their colorful and playful iPod Shuffles and now we have a slick black and smooth silver 4GB Shuffle! The buttons are mostly gone and have been replaced with a remote on the headphones. But the biggest change is the VoiceOver function! His voice may sound like Gilbert Grape, the fact that you can hear what song you’re playing or what playlist you’re on (yes, they’ve added the playlist function as well) is pretty cool! You can get it now @ Apple for $79!

Ayır edemediğimiz iki güneş gözlüğünün arasında ki fark ne mi? Bir tanesi siyah, bir tanesi de kahve rengi! Vay canına, şok edici bir habermiş bu, değil mi? Hiç kimsenin umrunda olmazsa bile, yine de belirtelim ki bu iki Dior Homme Black Tie gözlükleri şimdi SSENSE‘den satın alınabilirmiş!
Both glasses look almost identical but there is an almost here. One is black and one is brown! Wow, right?! The earth stood stil there for a sec, I know! Well, I must say that they are tight and would go good with a black tie. Hence the name Dior Homme Black Tie Sunglasses. Available now at SSENSE.
Master-Piece’in Ilkbahar 2009 çanta koleksiyonu çok güzelmiş! Sanki daha önce bu tarz fazla bir şey görmemiş gibiyiz. Belki Japon markası olduğu için o değişik vibe’ı var çantaların! Bütün modeller ve renkler Opening Ceremony‘de satılmaya başlamıştır bile!
Although we had never heard of Master-Piece (don’t confuse them with the other Japanese brand Masterpiece) their Spring 2009 collection make it hard for us to forget about them! Nice vivid colors, a lot of detail and just original designs make these bags eyecatchers and a definite ‘Go!’ for this Spring, Summer, or Winter! We’re going to check out the shop @ Opening Ceremony!

The Linda Farro Vintage Spring/Summer 2009 Collection sees a lot of top designers collaborating on these sunglasses and we don’t think this one will be lacking in press attention!
