I have a new toy!  My BlackBerry that I loved so much crashed and burned – so to speak.  I bought another off of Craigslist listing and, well, it had some issues.  I’ve been using BlackBerry now for about 3 years and love it ofcourse.  However, my new phone… well, let’s just say I don’t miss my Berry.    Shhhh, don’t tell anyone!

I purchased a G1 Android phone.  It’s kinda like an iPhone only it’s open source.  What that means is developers are more than welcome to create apps for this little guy, while iPhone – well, they have a TON of apps!  G1 is new and has maybe 500 apps currently.

The G1 is the Google phone ya know.  I get my gmail on there, it syncs with the mail and contacts and calendar.  I’m officially off of my Outlook now.    Sigh of relief.

I found an application called wpToGo and it’s just a quick way to make a post, attach a picture if you want from your phone – and send on over to your WordPress!  I did a quick test message below and got it to work!

Here’s the rundown if you are interested:

I’m done getting new phones now.  This one rocks!  I’ve had it for about 2 weeks now and haven’t found anything I don’t like. 

Can you believe I actually got an app that uses the camera portion of the phone as a BAR CODE SCANNER and by scanning something, it will tell you the cheapest place to purchase etc.  Here’s something though, could you imagine being able to use the scanner on your phone to say – inventory your DVDs or books?  Or… ?  Too many possibilities!

Happy Monday!

OH my gosh I laughed at this one… then took a breath and had to THINK about it.  LOL

I found this over at “Steven Designs” and his post:

“Google Earth Is Scary”

Yes, we have alot of last names in the house.  Two are Nichols, two are Ford and two are Sharp.  Hey, I haven’t exactly changed my last name yet.  I will though… don’t you fret!

Now, on to the fun at the house!

First, my three kids thought it would be great to take a photo for me and I was so excited to get it!  They used my camera and a tri-pod and even got Indy to look at the camera by throwing something in the direction of the tri-pod!  LOL  They did great!

My babies.

Missing is my step-son, he wasn’t there that day.  So they are going to take more photos with the blonde child (my only blonde kid – my step-son)!

That night we had a major blast playing Cherades (hm, spelled right?) and that was beyond halarious.

Tonight, Ice Cream social.  I know it’s cold, but who could turn down ice cream?!

OH!  I bought a new phone!  The Google Android G1 thingy!  I was a BlackBerry die hard for 3 years, and just went to the T-Mobile G1.  GREAT so far!

I’m gonna get back on after the ice cream and answe comments ’cause I just love you all so!

Love and Light
