Mango Feature Rumor:

For my first micro-blog post, I bring you a feature I'm looking forwards to a fair bit. Developers are gaining access to... something, don't ask me what it is... but what this something means is suddenly VOIP is possible for WP7 apps! Yes, yes this means Skype. Skype has officially announced that it will have a WP7 app available as of the Mango update!

Finally I can save some minutes calling Long distance by Skype'ing instead! Whether or not this means I will have access to Skype text chat from the phone is another matter. If it does turn out that Skype chat is available I sure hope it rolls in with.....

App Review: BloghuB

Hey there! I figured for my first official app review what better app then then the one I'll be using from now on for all my blogging on the go, BloghuB!

Despite only having played with this app for a short while I feel myself falling in love! It has a few glaring issues like no autosave (so if I back out to main menu to respond to a text or someone calls me I lose the whole post... Which by the way sucks this is the third time trying to post this) but has plenty of great features.

Lets start with formatting. This app gives you all the basics, bold, underline and italicize work as expected even with multiple options on at once. It has plenty of choices for font size from big to littleand lets you change bothfontcolor and highlightcolor.

You can align left

You can align center

You can even align right

It has a dedicated link button and you can snap a photo and add it right from the app... but apparently it doesn't work.... At least with blogger...

If you blog a lot or even a little grab this one!

Change of Pace

Well faithful readers I have a quick announcement to make. This post was a lot harder to write then the last few weeks as my posts catch up to my use. I've covered multi tasking, swype, the microsoft office suite, and a bunch of other miscellaneous apps. I realized if I kept going with those large block posts I'd quickly run out of apps so I'm changing my layout into three smaller posts a week. One will review a single app and will also include a suggest an app feature where you can show me YOUR favorite apps simply by commenting. The next post will cover something neat you can do with this awesome phone that isn't directly tied to an app as well as any reviews of "Suggest-an-app". The third post each week will be similar to my current posts only fairly shorter. Hopefully this will give you readers out there more chances to read my poorly written posts as well as a direct way for you to influence what gets posted while giving me more wiggle room with how much homework I have to do all at once. So I encourage you all to post your thoughts and give ME something to read every once in a while! Thanks for reading, I'm off to do more research!
