How to Be a Better Tech Bandito in Just 20 Steps

  1. Tech Bandito LogoFor crying out loud, buy an iPhone already.  If you’ve been waiting for the next generation to come out, stop.  You’ll still be able to sell your current iPhone for plenty of cash when the next version is released.
  2. Learn to BBQ awesomely succulent ribs.  Dry or wet – your choice – but remember, the bandito will take every advantage possible to outdo all other ribs.
  3. Invent something totally impractical and functionally useless.  The inventor of the USB charged office rocket is defiantly worthy of accolades and you can be too.
  4. Throw your Windows PC out the window and discover the magnificent world of Mac.  Seriously.  Wait!  Before you do this, see step number 18 below.
  5. Mod your pod.  Don’t have a mod?  Well it’s time to make one then.
  6. Go outside and start a heated discussion with your nearest neighbor on the topic of Blu-Ray vs. HD DVD.
  7. Start an 8 hour a day training regiment for the 2008 Guitar Hero Olympics.  Or do you want someone else to be the gold medalist?
  8. Melt down your old CDs for scrap plastic.  I hear scrap plastic is quite valuable.  Better yet, give them to all of your friends for their birthdays and insist that they are coasters.
  9. Make your own beer.  Better banditos brew beer.  It’s fun and delicious.  That’s a fact.  Mmmm… Bandito beer.
  10. Create a Wikipedia entry on yourself.  Then debate the ethics of doing so with your favorite office mate.
  11. Build the best potato cannon in the country with its very own web community base following.
  12. Do eye stretches at least every 45 minutes to keep your eyes in their peak performance.  Eye health is important to tech banditos.
  13. Download a new Firefox extension even if you don’t use Firefox.  Okay, that was dumb.  Sorry.
  14. Create your own Google gadget or code your own widget.
  15. Buy real headphones.  Necessary, but sorry, this doesn’t count towards your pod mod in step 5.
  16. Remember that better cameras almost always take better pictures.  And banditos do both.
  17. Employ an entirely robotic maid staff to clean your space.
  18. Build a Linux home music server with your old Windows box hardware instead of throwing it out the window.  If you’re reading this list backwards, skip step 4 when you get to it.
  19. Improve your online identity – it’s likely the only one to really matter in the future.
  20. Read TechBandito everyday!
