Android Developers! Here’s a phone-load of free ideas
Yeah, I’m a little excited while I sit and wait for my T-Mobile G1 to be delivered. During this waiting period that nearly every geek worth their weight in Apple will experience, I’ve been reading reviews, opinions, development docs, looking up existing applications and so on.
During this time I’ve been thinking about the things that [...]
True Tools
True Tools. That’s how I think of software & utilities that end up being indispensible. From Microsoft Windows & Office to Google & Expedia, to Gmail to Twitter. These are solutions that simple do what they were supposed to do without any fuss or muss.
We all have our favorite tools that end up work [...]
GoDaddy: isn’t your goto-daddy today!
Arg!
There, I’ve gotten that off my chest. Usually I jump on my blog early in the day and check up on a few things. You know, like comments, spam, outdated plugins, incoming links, etc… Then come back later in the day and, hopefully, get a post written and posted a couple times a week. Of [...]
Eee PC and online storage
Here’s an idea, and one I should have talked about sooner. As a cloud computing device, the Eee PC is the perfect example of a device that should take advantage of online storage.
Not only should mini-laptop, or Internet access devices be leveraging online software suites like Google Docs, Zoho Office, or ThinkFree, but also [...]
The one thing holding me to Microsoft Outlook
I’ve come to the conclusion that there is only one feature in Outlook that is holding me to it at the moment. Can you help convince me that it’s time to drop Outlook?
See, I’ve been a longtime user and proponent of Microsoft software. It’s actually really good software, and a decent value… for the [...]
Twitter: Down at 8:50 AM CT
Ok, I’m just keeping a record of when Twitter is down. Like now. The Twitter home page at this time:
This is the kind of thing that everyone is worried about when talking about Twitter. It’s becoming an extremely useful tool, to the point that some people will claim it to be crucial to their [...]
Online office - another go
Hey there, ho there - with the current mini-meme of online office app’s getting a bit more attention, I thought I’d give ‘em another go. That is, I have used all the major ones in the past year and a half, but have mostly come back to Microsoft Office.
Of course, I truly need MS [...]
Has the tech corner been turned?
I’ve always found it a tad weird when I have these flashes of intuition. I’d be the first to admit that it comes from being influenced by what I read and such, but lately I’ve been shying away from a lot of my traditional tech sources. Not sure why, but I really [...]
New to Twitter? Check out Twitter 101
One of my Twitter friends has posted a great article on getting started with Twitter. 1389 goes over what Twitter is, and how you can take advantage of using it yourself.
I’ll tell you I’ve met several hundred people on Twitter and find their input useful and interesting. While I follow mostly technical people in fields that I find interesting, I’ve also [...]
Another update to Google Docs and Spreadsheets
Bravo to Google for updating Docs & Spreadsheets with a refined interface and a few new features. Now there is a sidebar with folders for organizing and easier visual queues to where your documents are. Another new feature is the ability to sort documents by collaborator. This is a great enhancement for multiple users, where they would like to view documents based on who [...]
