The first Android phone that I got was the Nexus One, built by HTC for Google. However, I also got to play with an HTC DROID Eris for Verizon for a while, and I really fell in love with HTC’s Sense user interface. Over the years, they’ve been improving it quite a bit, and theContinue reading “The HTC Blog Helps Make Sense Of Sense”

Happy National Videoblogging Posting Month!

My friend James Whatley has been talking about vlomo10 for a few days now and I had mostly ignored him until he published his first video here. I’m a sucker for video blogging (or at least I used to be) and have been wanting to get back to creating content lately, so this is aContinue reading “Happy National Videoblogging Posting Month!”

An Android Use For The iGo Stowaway Bluetooth Keyboard

One of the biggest challenges that I’ve been facing with my experiment to not use my laptop for any personal Internet use is with text input. Unfortunately there is a severe lack of decent Android-powered smartphones with a built-in QWERTY keyboard, so I’m stuck using the onscreen keyboard.

When I decided to dump my Symbian-powered smartphones and pick up the Nexus One, I knew there would be some sacrifices involved. One of the biggest things that I knew I would be giving up is a solid phontography experience. If you don’t know, ‘phontography‘ is photography using phones.

My love for MediaMonkey is not a secret – I found this desktop music management app quite some time ago and it quickly replaced Winamp for me due to the countless ‘extra’ features that make managing my music a better experience.

A Return To Mobile Blogging

A long while ago, I was really obsessed with mobile blogging – that is, blogging from a mobile device. I kept trying from my Symbian-powered smartphones, but kept coming up short. Unfortunately, software was the main limiting factor. There simply are not any great solutions for blogging from a Symbian-powered smartphone, in my experience. Yes,Continue reading “A Return To Mobile Blogging”

All Smartphones Should Have A Desktop Dock

The Google Nexus One is one of the most talked-about smartphones lately, and for good reason. I have yet to find anyone who dislikes it, and even better, Google released a desktop dock for the Nexus One recently. Smartphones used to come with desktop docks, as this facilitated easy synchronization with your PC for PIM,Continue reading “All Smartphones Should Have A Desktop Dock”
