Don’t usually use twitter outside the smartphone, and this is what I run into when I try to browse it.

When single files get too large and so do HDD storage capacity, it’s time to kiss the DVD burning process goodbye…

The Nameless Decade that was

OsoMarron — Fri, 01 Jan 2010 16:15:11 +0000

Happy new year 2010, and happy new decade. I wonder if the previous decade will ever get “officially” named. For now, I rather stick with “the ohs”, even though that only works in english. I hope the media does end up calling it something, because for better or worse, it was a meaningful decade. At least the naming gets easier from this point on.

RIP GooSync

At least as a free service. GooSync is killing the free version of their service, which was decent, since I could at least sync the next 30 days of my google calendar account. I guess too many people found the free version appropriate, or didn’t think the paid version was even worth it, so they resorted to this. Now to look for another way of keeping my Nokia and Google up to date.

Nokia S60 Calendar + Google Calendar = WIN!

A much ignored feature of my cellphone suddenly became vital as I started my work/college life a month ago. First thing I looked for was a way to sync the cellphone calendar with an online service (no Outlook or any desktop application, that’d defeat the purpose of portability). First thing I thought of was Google Calendar, and also checked out the OVI service. Ended up choosing the Google interface over OVI, but the problem was Google was not offering a syncing solution for S60.

After trying a rather expensive program in its demo format, I ended up going for a free solution that does a decent work, except that it only syncs within the span of a month (the paid version syncs up to a year).

Didn’t bother mentioning names because the point of this post was to actually mention that Google came through and started development on a syncing tool for S60 calendar.

As I read the comments on the blog, this seems to be a beta in all the sense of the word. Still buggy, so I’m not gonna try it myself yet, but I’ll definitely keep an eye on news about this and snatch a copy as soon as a stable version comes out.

Joining the bandwagon

Well, I had to join the fad sooner or later… A twitter account has been created.

And with widget and all, as you can see on the far right ————>
