Big Week for Kevin Rose & the iPhone

Wow, there has been a lot going on over the last few days, and being overwhelmed with all the news, as well as my constant tweeting, I was the victim of very severe Blogger’s Block. So I finally just decided to get over it and write my thoughts down for you.
Let’s start with, you guessed it, Twitter. I really cannot cover everything that has transpired this week in Twittersville, the amount of interesting articles shared, videos watched, and great debates and discussions in which I participated, is pretty much endless. So, I will try to focus on one new very important development that is bound to change the way we interact with Twitter and our followers.

 

Tweetie & The Developing Twitter Industry

The Twitter industry has got to be one of the fastest growing industries in history. There are endless services and programs to support this very basic yet addictive concept of micro blogging in 140 characters.

I know it is not the same kind of product, but the question was asked by many; “Do I really need to spend all that money on a Kindle when I can just read on an iPhone”? Well, seems like Amazon was listening.

 

FlightTrack Pro – At Last A Useful App

We are approached all the time by people/companies to blog about their products, apps and just about anything relating to technology. I myself do this for Payoneer so understand their good intentions but I need to believe in the product in order to blog about it. This is an open invitation for anyone to pitch us something but we need stories that are interesting and/or relevant to us and our readers. I think that makes sense, agreed?
