I do not dedicate a new post to every Android phone that is announced, that would be pretty difficult. However, some phones are just that good, and they deserve a special mention. I had a few minutes to play with a Samsung Galaxy S last night and was blown away. The phone really impressed me on all levels, hardware and software.

For Gmailers, Rapportive is an Absolute Must!
We are living in very interesting times. With Facebook’s growing dominance and Twitter’s expanding user base, hundreds of millions of people share every last detail about themselves openly on the Web. This of course changes everything.

Scobleizer on Google, Facebook, Location, iPad, and Android

A few weeks back I got a question I have never been asked before; an old friend emailed me asking what the best Web-based task management software is.
Everything You Need to Know about Twitter and Tweeting
This post is going to be a little different. Over the past two years, ever since I joined Twitter (Follow me here), I, along with many people I know, have had a lot of questions about the micro blogging service.

Android Tablet Spotted (VIDEO)
Apple seems to have done it again, opened up a new market. Yes, there have been tablets in the past, but do you know anyone who has one? I don’t! Upon the release of the iPad and the millions sold, seems everyone wants a piece of the action and I can’t blame them.
