I have found a way to make Windows Mobile work for me by installing and using cooked ROMs.
I have had a love hate relationship with Windows Mobile 6 since I started using it last summer. I have enjoyed using it to write Emails, blog, IM, read RSS feeds, take snaps, edit documents, maintain a diary, [...]

There is a new story spreading around the Internet that video sharing sites are about to become inaccessible from China. Here is an extract from The Guardian:
It was the internet story of 2007, the website that brought you sneezing pandas, laughing babies, an epic battle on the African savannah and a guest appearance by Tony [...]

I spend many hours every week listening to and watching various technology podcasts from Twit, ZD, Revision 3 and CNET. They are all written and presented by former TechTV employees so it little wonder that they are almost exclusively focused on Silicon Valley and North American issues? Occasionally, Europe will get a brief mention and [...]

Lifehacker has just been looking at the problems with Windows Mobile and how Micrososft is going to fix it. As a WM user myself, I find the whole experience promising and irritating in equal measure. I have bought a whole range of 3rd party applications such as Resco Recorder, PocketInformant and Flexmail 2007 to improve [...]

Ray Kurzweil’s The Singularity is Near is sitting on my bookshelf waiting to be read. I have read the first few chapters, but it is a dense tome that demands your full attention. I have been too busy and exhausted to be able to get into this book so far, but I have three weeks [...]

Simply enter the desired item and poll [...]

At the end of the year, people like to look back and make lists about everything from films to worst tourist destinations. I thought it would be fun to jump on this bandwagon and share my favourite technology items from 2007.
1.Apple Iphone
This is the most hyped gadget of the decade even though it is more [...]

I have been playing with a website called IDesktop.tv, which enhances Youtube by allowing viewers to download videos in a variety of formats including mp4 for Ipods and 3GP for cellphones.
Vixy.net offers a similar conversion service, but you need to know the web address of the video before you can download it. Miro is [...]

Amazon has launched a new E-book reader called Kindle, which is getting a great deal of criticism for being too limited and too expensive. The Kindle is a $400 device that is the size of a small handbook, weighing just 300 grammes, but it can be used to store and read upto 200 e-books that [...]

The new Asus Eeepc would be a very unremarkable miniature subnotebook, except it is so cheaply priced and is getting all sorts of hype at the moment as you can see from Will Harris’s video review on Channelflip. It has gone on sale in the UK for 220 GBP and I have heard that you [...]
