Lessons in iLife

So what've I learned on my first day playing with my new toy?? Well.
Firstly there are tons of great apps out there to play with. My
favorite so far has to be the iBeer one haha. I know it's a simple
game but the rewarding pint is so lifelike and just... incredibly
impressive. I'm really impressed with anything that uses the
accelerometer too so this, just like Labyrinth and the free level
tools, goes down well.

Other apps def worth a mention are Twinkle, which finds twitter posts
by people in your area (great if you live in the technically lost back
of beyond) and send messages to them, last.fm the app which brings the
great web service to your mobile, and finally shazam which just like
the premium phone number finds out what that song you've been humming
all day actually is, given a few (in tune) notes.

Anyway I'm sure my obsession with finding these cool little gadgets
will quickly pass... I've already got two movies that I've been
desperate to check out on hold that surely can't wait too much longer.
Question is... Do I want to Believe orrr do I want to check out an
animated dystopian future with a cute robot?? Think I'll go with the x
files!

Getting to grips with the techno

Ello Ello!

So I think I'm finally getting the hang of all this new technology
haha - what better way to celebrate than starting my own mobile
blog?!? I have to say I'm completely buying into this whole iPhone
experience. Already set up a twitter account, converted a bunch of
movies, made some new ringtones, got all the apps and now hooked up
blogger! Yikes. Anyway I guess what most people use these things for
are ranting so here's my rant of the day... Curse you google for
making U.K. customers have googlemail.com addresses instead of gmail!
Now certain websites who take photo uploads via email don't know who I
am until I go back and change my email address... Argh! And I do
realize that's semi my fault but hey this is the Internet so o can say
what I like right?! Nazis. :-)
