Filed under: Geek,Personal Stuff — prbylula @ 1:52 pm


Finally I took the time to make a list of the BlackBerry “MUST” Have applications you need to install on your device.
I am actually using a Blackberry 8900, but they’ll apply to your phone too

Übertwitter is the best tool to give a mobile aspect to your twitter account. I promise you’ll love it!
Everyone is already using Facebook app, but don’t you think there are some important things missing here like the #FB chat? I do.
WordPress just AMAZING! Keep your WP blog updated each week, write new posts and create new pages from your device. You should definitely try it.
Opera Mini 4.2 The beeeesssst browser from my own experience. Easy to navigate, fast and quite cool.
iSkoot – weren’t you wondering if there was any app to answer your skype calls directly from your smartphone? Well, the iSkoot guys made this possible.
Flickr off course! Take and upload pictures all day long to your flickr account, keep your friends updated on what’s going on with your life.

 

Loading Blog Error for WordPress app on my BB November 13, 2009

Filed under: Geek — prbylula @ 3:10 am

I am so tired of this TCP error message. ‘Tunnel failed’… was is that?

I already tried the two options listed on the WordPress FAQ:
In the WordPress app, click on Setup, and review the connections you want to enable. Unchecking “WAP’, for example, has helped resolve this issue for a few people. If that doesn’t help make sure that permissions are set correctly. On your BlackBerry, go to “Options > Advanced Options > Applications”. Scroll through the list and highlight and select “WordPress for BlackBerry”. Next, Click on the app, and choose Edit Permissions and ensure they are set to “Allow”

Neither of them worked for me. I am starting to feel kind of frustrating, I need this application to keep my blog updated.
Where are you (WP) people?

You can use them in 3 interesting ways:

1) Lists as a way of organizing your followers
2) Lists as a form of recommendation
3) Lists as a way of measuring influence.

Also if you find yourself following too many people this would be a really helpful tool.

1. Plan to share your lists outside of Twitter
2. Add yourself to your List (if necessary)
3. Name your List well
4. Create Lists for your target audience
5. Promote and share your lists in the right manner

My advice; just enjoy it and have fun… remember you always have the option to make any list private.

 

Becoming a Fashion Victim November 2, 2009

Filed under: Personal Stuff — prbylula @ 9:10 pm

Definition of Fashion victims; are victims because they are vulnerable to faddishness and materialism, two of the widely recognized excesses of fashion, and consequently are at the mercy of society’s prejudices or of the commercial interest of the fashion industry, or of both.
According to Versace, “When a woman alters her look too much from season to season, she becomes a fashion victim.”

I absolutely disagree with this, its ok that we try a new haircut or new look, right?
I understand that not everyone is interesting in suffering from uncomfortable clothes, but not because we do wear ‘skinny jeans’ or some painful pair of shoes with ‘killer’ hells, we are fashion victims, ‘shopaloholism’ or a simple Jonas Brother’s Fan.
I believe we all need to ‘own’ a particular style, but please #freaks let us keep buying stupid stuff…
