My full-time job until last week Friday (Mar. 20) was to serve as the Editor for MobileAppsToday.com and MobileDevicesToday.com. Both blogs were shut down last week and are currently redirecting to the still live MobileContentToday.com (which I contribute to as a freelance writer). So, I found it extremely ironic when Google Reader suggested I subscribe to MobileDevicesToday.

1. TinyTwitter
2. Pocketwit
3. Twobile

Feedback causes changes to Windows Mobile 6.5 honeycomb UI
But, hmm, it looks like the only change is that the outlines around the icons in the Windows Mobile 6.5 honeycomb menu has been removed. That’s a start, I guess.

Anyone who has taken a look around lately knows that we are in tough economic times. And, unfortunately, I’m not anymore immune to it than any other ordinary person. The owner (WebMediaTrends) of the blogs I’ve been editing told last week Wednesday (Mar. 18, 2009) that business conditions led them to decide to shut both the MobileAppsToday.com and MobileDevicesToday.com blogs for which I served as the Editor. So, my co-Editor Bryan Barletta and I were both let go as of this past Friday (Mar. 20). I will, however, continue to write items for the surviving mobile industry focused blog MobileContentToday.com as a freelance writer. However, I will be writing on a much reduced schedule. You can read my announcement on that blog at…
MobileApps & MobileDevices Folded Into MobileContentToday
The good news is that the MobileAppsToday/MobileDevicesToday Podcasts were always my own personal side project. So, I own the feed and its contents. As you can see here, I plan to continue to produce mobile technology focused podcasts going forward. If you have topics or guests to suggest, please let me know. And, if you are interested in sponsoring the podcast or a podcast segment, please contact me for further discussions.
My old friend Jason Dunn bought a Dell Inspiron Mini 10 netbook and recorded a detailed unboxing video (embedded above). Looks like a nice netbook.
Evernote is one of my favorite apps because it does what it does well (record, store, and retrieve notes of all kinds) and because it has a great web interface as well as several native apps for Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows, Windows Mobile, and the iPhone. They just published their first podcast. I haven’t listened to it yet because the pipe for this hotel’s WiFi server is mighty tiny. However, you can find it at…
