Ahhh…

A day off. It feels like it’s been a crazy week, but only work…. huh. A few bits of news though, I GOT MY NEW PHONE! It’s a myTouch 3G Slide and it’s just as cool as I thought it would be! First thing I gotta say about it, multi-touch is awesome! Using it in the browser and to switch from screen to screen is so nice! And speaking of screens, I’ve gone from only 3 packed with apps to 7(!) with my apps nicely spread out so I can still see my background image. The phone also has a feature called “Modes,” these modes are different backgrounds, app short cuts, widegts and ringtones that you can custimize and set depending on where you are and what you’re doing. So you can have a mode for working, one for being at home and maybe another for hanging out with a group of friends. It also has touch-to-focus, simply what you touch on the screen in the camera it focuses on (FANCY)! It runs android still (like my previous phone, the original myTouch 3G) but version 2.1. And on top of android the phone runs HTC’s proprietary sense UI, or to be exact a new version of it called expresso. I never thought I’d like something layer on android but I’m loving sense/expresso (being my first expirience with it) a lot. I tried Motorola’s Motoblur and wasn’t a huge fan, and don’t even get my started on Samsung’s touch wiz (not good)! Man, I could go on and on! But I’ll drop that topic and stop boring you, dear reader. However I’ll be continuing my geeky news as I preordered Super Mario Galaxy 2, it’s Mario in space (the sequal)! The first was one of the best games ever on the Nintendo Wii, I’m looking forward for the sequal to be even better! It launches a week from today. That being said, the post next Sunday may be late…. or on Monday….. maybe Tuesday…
Oh, and we started our connect group last week. And no one showed up. We only had one person sign up anyways. However, none of the connect groups filled up this semester, it is the summer after all.
Till next time reader! Have a great week!
