The Be a Good Dad blog has made a very thoughtful response to my Cellphones and Children post, and in fact disagrees with me on one of the points I made.
Be a Good Dad contends that SMS text messaging won’t ruin a child’s spelling and grammar skills, and will in actuality help them know when [...]
I know I am known for a little Motorola bashing in my time, but what do you expect when you are presented with a company whose business plan is to continually rehash an old handset?
After the announcements of the MOTOKRZR K1 and MOTORIZR Z3, I really thought that Motorola was going to give me something [...]
I have been running with a sidebar (the aptly named Desktop Sidebar application) ever since I started using a dual monitor setup many years back. The added productivity from having so much at your fingertips certainly makes up for the small loss of screen real estate. I have tried a couple of different alternatives, but [...]
James Kendrick points me to an interesting article on CNET UK about the average age of children when they get a mobile phone. The article states that a recent study shows that the average age of a child is expected to drop to five years old this year – while five years old does surprise [...]

Greg Hughes writes about a great feature in Google where you can actually ask it what time it is in a certain place in natural language and get a response. This is cool, and something I’m sure I’ll be making big use of when traveling. Google keeps amazing me more every day.
I also make big [...]
Richard Querin, a long time member of my reading list, has made a very well thought out and constructive post in response to my post about the nature of blogging. Let me just say that said post was never meant to garner any attention, let alone such a lengthy and interesting response, which is something [...]
I was interviewed today by a PR firm that handles Japanese carrier NTT DoCoMo, one of the largest and most technologically advanced network operators in the world, and one of the questions asked raised a very interesting point to me. NTT DoCoMo is rolling out two smartphones, a Blackberry and the HTC Z, and I [...]
It is interesting to analyze how I go about blogging you know. For a long period now, I have had a complete writer’s block of sorts. Sure, I write my articles for MobileBurn, which I enjoy greatly, but I have been at a loss for anything to write about on a more personal note. It’s [...]
