Oh great, Skype is flexing it’s little pasty arm again. After this summers ordeal with Skype banning Fring for “breach of its API terms” it’s doing the same again with Nimbuzz now. It was inevitable but still disappointing. Skype is heading toward an IPO so it seems as if it’s tying up any loose ends but truth [...]
This last week has been hellish for some people. Some people actually do do video chat on their mobile phones. My sister does because her husband is on the other side of the world working and getting their new house set up. Her son misses his Dad and so they Skype on her Nokia N78 [...]
Wow, I’m finally fully recovered from my favorite party of the year. BuzzWorthy was off the hook and you would know if you were there and if you missed it, well YOU MISSED OUT (Will). We packed the our space, standing room only and had people lining up trying to get in. Thanks to all [...]
Guess what everybody, I’m coming to SF and I’m putting a party together. Nimbuzz, Attack Marketing, and GoMo News are sponsoring and we have a great lineup of stuff going on. We have beta apps to give out, product launches and announcements coming. In less then the 24 hours the event has been public we [...]
So I used the E75 for a while then went back to my trusty E71 and back and forth and back and forth for weeks now. I love the format of my E71 but like the menu and speed of the E75. Plus the E75 has US 3G and my E71 doesn’t. I keep telling [...]
So as all of my readers know I’m a hard core Nokia E71 fanboy. I’ve been infatuated with the E71 since I first heard about it roughly 2 years ago. Now I’m impatiently waiting for the much anticipated E72 but I decided to whip out the E75 I was graciously lent for review and have [...]
I use messaging a great deal, from sms to email to instant messaging to Twitter to video chat to voice mail (unfortunately), I spend a lot of time communicating. I was thinking recently when will we see messaging apps evolve again? I’m hoping Google Wave will help but I don’t think it will take it [...]
I left on vacation a few days back, as I write this I’m in the passenger seat of a giant 12 passenger Ford F350 van. This thing is a monster but I like it. I’ve been preparing my electronic gear bag (I like to call it my toy bag) and I never know exactly what [...]
In the last week I’ve gotten 2 new handsets and I started thinking what are the apps I always install on every handset I get. Email: Emoze (client) and Nokia Email Beta for testing, sometimes the Java Gmail app IM: Nimbuzz, Fring and Ovi Contacts Maps: Nokia Maps 3.0 Beta and Google Maps Twitter: Gravity [...]
So I just got back Friday afternoon from CTIA in Las Vegas. As a whole in terms of announcements, hardware and software it was quite a boring show. I did get to play with the Nokia E71x, N97 and E75 (I got to take one of these home, I have a review coming), those were [...]
