I'm addicted

I recently updated my phone, and am now living in the 21st century with the Android OS. I enjoy my phone, and maybe a little too much. First, I downloaded Angry Birds to keep me occupied on the ride to work, then a memory game. Now, its Words With Friends. Its basically an interactive game of Scrabble, but you can play multiple games at one time...it's really addicting. I enjoy words and games, so Words With Friends was a no brainier. Is there something wrong with being really into your phone and being so occupied with these games? I hope not!

Techie Weekends

I recently purchased a new phone. It was time, I was still using a Blackberry 8900, you know, the one with the trackball? I've upgraded (for a discounted price due to my loyalty to T-Mobile) to an Optimus T, and I think its pretty awesome. Its an Android phone which is great for apps moreso than Blackberry. Every time I loaded an app on my Blackberry to would slow to a near halt, but the updated Android OS is fast and responsive. Its all touch screen and has Swype capability for texting which is really cool to use. I'm a little addicted to the swype feature because of its ease and just sheer "how does it know what I'm typing" effect. I couldn't be happier with my new phone and all the apps I can now enjoy...mainly playing Angry Birds. If there's one complaint I have its this; I don't get real time updates of Twitter, Facebook or my e-mails, if anyone has tips on how to do this let me know! I guess the rep I called when activating my Android web package was right, "you're going to LOVE this phone".
