One of the lesser mentioned features of the new MMS functionality recently activated by AT&T on the iPhone is the ability to send Voice Memos.  As the attached image shows, when you click on the “Share” button, you are given the option to choose to send memo via MMS.

This may not seem like a big deal, but it adds a bit of personality and emotion to a message that wouldn’t be possible with a simple text message.  It might be a much faster way to send message, rather than typing one out.  Nice feature!

Have you heard about these new Twitter Twibes?  I find them great in getting together users who want to Tweet about a common subject.  Here’s all you need to get started with Twitter Twibes!  (I mentioned the 1st one in an earlier post.)

Here are a few new articles for you.  Twitter and Facebook have caught much of my attention lately.  It’s amazing to see how fast a social networking site can go from a virtual unknown to the general public, to becoming verbs that will probably be in the Webster’s dictionary by the end of the year!  Facebook did it last year and Twitter is doing it this year!

Please share any comments!  I’d love to hear what you think!

The interest in Twitter has been skyrocketing in the last few months.   The concept of micro-blogging invites users to update whenever and wherever they are, which makes an iPhone application a natural fit.  Unfortunately, lots of developers have recognized that fact and have presented us with dozens of choices of iPhone Twitter clients.

I have been documenting the functionality each of the major Twitter apps for the iPhone and have found that not one of the available apps covers all of the features requested by users.  Twitterers are forced to either use several different apps or just settle for one that fits best.  I have written an article on eHow.com that helps the reader identify some of the functionality and which type of app that might work best.

I didn’t think it was the right format to recommend specific applications by name, however.  Maybe I’ll do that here, if there is any interest!  Let me know in the comments if you want me to name names!

eHow.com is a site that provides would-be writers the opportunity to get their feet wet by publishing their own “How to” articles about any subject that they choose.  eHow shares a bit of the advertising revenue with the writers and allows you to maintain copyright to your articles.

I have really enjoyed writing some articles and wanted to share them here.  Feel free to click on them and share them with anyone that you think will enjoy them!

I have a shirt that I love to wear that says “No One Cares About Your Blog.”.  I love it because I know that it’s true at so many levels.  However, I have recently started writing some articles around the web and keep being told that I must have a website to get visibility to my articles.

So, I don’t have any idea how I’m going to use this site, but I’m going to share links to my articles.  Who knows, I might find that I slide into the world of blogging!  However, I promise to keep wearing my shirt to keep me grounded!

I can tell you that I love technology of all kinds!  Although my focus changes regularly, my current loves are the iPhone, the applications that can be obtained from the iTunes App Store, the Palm Pre, Twitter, and Facebook.  I love to teach, hence the eHow articles that I’ve been writing.  I also want everyone to love their gadgets as much as I love mine, so I love sharing what I love (and don’t love) about what is available out there!
