It’s true, Google is moving into mobile05 Nov

I heard the Google mobile being touted around the time we were providing mobile test consultants to Disney, to help it setup a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) last year.

Google’s response to Facebook “Maka-Maka”31 Oct

It’s time for Facebook to make it easier for developers to build decent applications. The main let down for me, is the poor usability of most applications. This is hardly surprising at this stage though, as developers lack experience in using Facebook’s proprietary markup language. What’s worse, is that most developers force you to install [...]

Microsoft to buy part of Facebook?24 Sep

Thanks to Steve Clayton for the link on Twitter. I’ve always said that Facebook isn’t a social network like Bebo or MySpace. Facebook is more of a platform/technology which we use to connect with people we know within our network. We can then build communities using our social network.

Has the Nokia N95 changed?23 Sep

I asked the question on Twitter and at least 5 people kindly responded. Twitter restricts each message to 140 characters though, so it’s not conducive to long conversations. So I’ve decided to take it to a more traditional medium, this blog. I’ll probably ask the question on Facebook too as I’m likely to get quite [...]
