My Real Fake iPhone 3Gs

Phil G. posted an article on - Jun 18, 2009, 12:14 am
Of course, once I got home I immediately upgraded my iPhone 3G to the latest 3.0 firmware. After the interminable download, sync and install process, I got my first glimpse at the new front page. Almost immediately, I noticed that I not only had a battery icon, but also the percentage of battery pow...

New Theme, New Thoughts, Less Fluff

I haven’t been doing much writing recently. Anywhere. After an extremely fun couple of months writing for ReadWriteWeb (thanks again for making that possible, Richard! Your team is absolutely the best folks to work with!) I found a full-time job working for CyberSource, working on the operatio...

Three Weeks In and Still Kicking

Phil G. posted an article on - Mar 24, 2009, 9:09 pm
I’ve been criminally lacking on updating this blog since taking a writing position at ReadWriteWeb. I admit it. But I do have an idea about the direction I want to take this blog, and hopefully, if I keep plugging at it, people will find it to be useful. However, I’m mostly writing this today f...

Phil G. posted an article on - Mar 2, 2009, 10:00 am
Last week, literally out of the blue, I got an email from Richard MacManus, founder of ReadWriteWeb. He said that the blog had an opening for a news blogger, and would I be interested? Say no more, I replied. I am just a bit more than slightly interested. In fact, I was thrilled. So, after settin...

I’m all about trying out new social services, applications and tools. I love learning about a new product and getting around inside it to figure out its capabilities and features. Perhaps recognizing that fact, Mike from Chat Ventures contacted me recently and offered to let me beta-test a new W...

Disqus Enables FriendFeed Sync

Phil G. posted an article on - Jan 26, 2009, 10:52 pm
I just saw a tweet from @disqus declaring that you can now pull/post Disqus comments with FriendFeed!  Of course, I have immediately enabled it, and we will see how well it works.

In the past week or two, I have been playing with a number of new toys that promise to tie the social networks Twitter and FriendFeed to my blog a little more tightly. TweetSuite First, there’s TweetSuite by Dan Zarrella.
