The only edge Blackberry has against HTC is its BBM service and since only few of my friends use Blackberry and there are other several multi-platform messaging service available in applications stores or markets, I scratched the option of having BBM on my phone. Also, I am hearing that RIM (Blackberry OS developer) is considering options of making BBM be available on other platforms like Android and iOS, though its a paid app. December 23, 2011 ...

Shocked! That was my reaction when I came across to a Yahoo! article entitled “What the car of 2020 will look like”. Shocked not only to the article’s content itself but with the comments posted below it. Wouldn’t these people aware that this technology was been available for more than three years now?

Early morning exercise and staying under the morning sun were just few of the advises we got from our elementary mentors. We were taught that such activities help us get vitamin D from the sun. Does vitamin D really comes from the sun? Truth is, the only particle that the sunlight carries are photons and I don’t think that vitamin D is made up of these photons. Vitamin D, is a group fat soluble secosteroid, which means a form of steroid, that is derived from cholesterol. Vitamin D3, for instance, is made in the skin when 7-dehydrocholesterol (a form of ...

Something happened to my iPod Touch 4G (read the story here) so I decided to restore it, of course with the latest Apple Firmware, the iOS 4.3.2. Since AppStore apps are really expensive, especially for me who just wanted to try then delete if I don’t like the app, I’d jailbreak with SnOwbreeze 2.6 for me to use cracked apps.

I can also use free ... Read more
