Technology Helps Everyone – Mumbai Terrorists Included

Svetlana Gladkova

Today there’s an interesting report about terrorists using BlackBerry mobile devices during Mumbai attacks to watch the world reaction to their actions. I myself can hardly understand why people seem to be surprised about such things at all as it is quite obvious that in this world technology is accessible to just about anyone with enough money and it does not require any license or approval to buy a smart phone. After all, no one will ask you what you [...]

BlackBerry Officially In the Touch-screen Market

Svetlana Gladkova

Yesterday Research In Motion announced BlackBerry Storm that is obviously yet another direct competitor to Apple’s iPhone 3G.
The major disadvantage for BlackBerry Storm is that this phone lacks Wi-Fi support but there are other things where the new device is even stronger than iPhone, like removable battery, 3.2-megapixel camera, and cut-and-paste editing functionality.
Here I have compiled a table (based on the official specifications by manufacturers) to compare the new BlackBerry Storm with its main competitors - the already popular iPhone [...]

YouMail — Visual Voicemail for the iPhone-Free Masses

Triston McIntyre

I'm a texter.  I'm addicted.  I actually prefer texting to phone calls; you can talk to seven people at once as opposed to just one, and SMS messages tend to cut down on conversational fluff that saps your precious time.  Because most people aren't addicted like me, they don't care to shoot the breeze with their fingers.  In fact, that tends to mean they don't text me at all, but leave me voicemail after voicemail, in spite of the fact [...]

Is Something Hiding Behind Google Android?

Cyndy Aleo-Carreira

Right from Google's initial launch of Android, I've been curious about what the overall plan was for the product. After all, Google sank an enormous amount of money into its development, and judging from the blogs of Java developers that I read, a pretty good amount of time as well. It seemed an awfully big project to have launched without the usual amount of Google fanfare, and it was coming fairly late in the game, with Symbian, Windows Mobile, and [...]

Recent Handy Developments On iPhone-Friendly Web App Front

Paul Glazowski

While it’s not at all fair that Apple’s iPhone (and the developments its release has spawned) are getting the overall bulk of the attention doled out to the smartie market these days, it’s certainly worth pointing out highlights that are piggybacking the multi-touch marvel’s success as they make their way into public view, if only because they’re 1) quite useful, and/or 2) so frickin’ cool.
Today we talk about two Web-based deliveries: Wakoopa and Google Docs. One is a [...]

Google Docs Mobile Now Available, But Unfinished

Michael Garrett

Today, Google Blogoscoped has announced that the mobile version of Google Docs is now available to users of the online office suite.
Last month, it was discovered that there were mobile-designed pages available with a link leading to docs.google.com/m, but at the time the URL resulted in a 404 error.
The Google Help Center has posted that the only devices officially supported are the iPhone and Blackberry devices while only mentioning for owners of other mobile devices that "a good rule of [...]

Gizmo Project Releases VoIP and IM Solution for BlackBerry

Paul Glazowski

As amazing and as newsworthy as the iPhone might seem to be, it?s got a long way to go before it really makes itself at home in the land of ubiquity. In fact, in terms of sheer numbers, the Apple device doesn?t hold a candle to the long-reigning king of the smartphone world, the BlackBerry, in all its various iterations.
So when the blogosphere talks of the debut of cool new Web 2.0 mobile-specific sites, should we by default talk [...]
