Twitter and My Phone

Tue, 09 Jun 2009 23:07:00 -0400

I haven’t posted much at PEzHedz, but I feel that’s all about to change. Up until recently I was using the web interface via WAP on my “dumb-phone.” Now that I finally got a smartphone (not an iPhone, mind you) I think I’m gonna go all mobile/citizenjournalism/vigilante-for-the-mundane.

I have been doing more twittering lately. I like having that capability at my fingertips. Being new to Windows Mobile, I was looking for something akin to the iPhone’s twitter apps. This brings me to Twikini by Trinket Software. It does everything I would expect for a Twitter client. I have it also set to only check for new tweets every hour, so I can get real work done instead of staring at 140 characters all day. Another cool feature is that Twikini is integrated with twitpic, so posting photos is a snap.

If you use twitter a lot and have a winmo phone, I say give Twikini a shot!

What is a great place for Jeopardy fans to waste time?:

How much fun is this place! Clearly there isn’t the same tension as being on the show, doing the math to earn a dollar more than what the opponents have in order to say “ha-ha, you shouldn’t have waged so much on Russian Literature of the 19th Century, Loser!”

Why Twitter Matters

Why Twitter Matters:

No sooner do I blog this item over at Fliptop, Robert Scoble sends this Businessweek article around on Twitter.

I feel so “bleeding edge” (yeah, with a service that’s been around for years.)

Joining the Twitter Revolution

Nothing new really, just want to say I'm here.

I guess i’m starting to get more involved with trying to keep up, so here I am, updating my tumblr. There’s not much to say, so i’ll just try to keep it to a few bullets:

I hate allergies. I’m stuck with them, and didn’t take a (generic)Claritin all day. My wife thinks it’s all in my head. I know my head is SERIOUSLY stuffed up, so maybe she’s right.
I just came to the realization that it’s been 10 years since I was in FL at Full Sail. wow, I guess it’s changed a ton since I was there.
I finally washed out my mug that sits on my desk. it was half full once… I let it evaporate into this syrup, the this black tar, then this hardened crystaline layer on the bottom. I can finally drink out of it again.

HassleMe

Do I really want someone else to HassleMe?
I’m sure it could be useful, but to have to set a reminder to do stuff is something that I already do . or am trying to do. well see how long it takes me to submit “hassle me to quit using HassleMe.” I doubt it tho. It looks like a useful site. (via Fliptop)
