Seven more days to go and we’re gearing up to take Barcelona by storm. Android PR Gal will be meeting a few other Androidians (@timstrazz @_zero @alsutton @Manupool? @mtrends ) rumored to be invading an area of that Spanish city and who knows what antics will ensue.
First off, definitely a meet up for a much [...]

“… to sleep, perchance to dream …”
I don’t know about many of you, but I often have trouble sleeping. I don’t think it’s an insomniac thing, as much as I believe that I really am a “night person”, forced to adjust my natural body clock to the “rat race” world. This obviously has some repercussions [...]

2010 will mark the tipping point for Mobile Technology. Mobile operating systems have taken a large leap in defining an empowered future by abandoning the old ways of “what’s our’s is our’s and you can’t have any” to turning the other cheek and going “open source”.
Yesterday marked the entry of yet another big player, the [...]

Just because I’ve had to divide my time (most of my time) with the “working girl” mode, doesn’t mean I haven’t been keeping up with the mobile-sphere garble.
An interesting tidbit is the buzz on Microsoft’s new phone. Especially with the Mobile World Conference 2010 just weeks away, the anticipation of a new gadget hangs [...]

My good friend Monique posted on my Facebook wall this comment, to which I gave a reply.

When Google announced the Nexus One during their much anticipated and awaited Press Conference on January 5th, I wasn’t at home to catch the real time tweets  and live blogging. I did however get a front row seat, thanks [...]

Just finished watching Google’s Press Conference that featured the Nexus One. Thanks to Robert Scoble for livestreaming the event on USTREAM and thankfully, I was able to watch it, after the fact.
Two words that stuck out: Superphone and Evolution. The cartoon above was inspired by them.
If a picture paints a thousand words, then a [...]

Day two of Clone Method started off NOT on schedule.
I was still surprised that I DID get up at 5:30am but laid on the bed, thinking. I decided to just do it. So I got up made some fried rice and egg (hey, I’m Asian .. ‘ish) and coffee. Got on Twitter, checked email, updated [...]

You’ve seen it all before. You’ve done it. You’ve experienced someone else doing it. You find yourself on top of your game, rolling in the dice, feeling untouchable and by the looks of things you figure you’ll continue cruising to the top and nothing can stop you.
Then all of a sudden something or someone comes [...]

Good Morning Deutschland. Hello World.
I would like to announce that as of this day, I am now a clone.
After a long while of debating and thinking through, I’ve realized that the only way for me to survive and maintain a momentum is to create another “me” that will be able to take on the tasks [...]

It was 7:20 am Central European Time +1 and I was still on West Coast (as in L.A.) time. No, I haven’t been out of Germany since I landed here in 2007. I just have real weird hours.
Because of these weird hours, I was able to catch Sascha Pallenberg of netbooknews.com ’s Friendfeed post:
The world [...]

Let’s face it, 2010 is the year we’ll be seeing a flood of Android Devices with remarkable hardware designs and some, so-so ones.
Rumors have already gathered on new Androids in the horizon but leaked-rumors regarding Android have been turning up as “real”.
Next week’s CES event will definitely be showing off a few Android devices, and [...]

Happy New Year Everyone!
whatsupandroid.com is only a little over 3 months old and if I were to look back at all the things that happened, from the very first time I found myself playing around with green shapes on Macromedia’s Fireworks till now, I’m blown away.
What started out as a site for only showcasing Android [...]

If  Thomas L. Friedman’s book,  “The World is Flat” alerted people to the effects of globalization in all levels of societal functioning, imagine what impact the mobile industry platform can have is having on our everyday lives.
It’s already changing the way we do things, say things, listen to things, find things, use things, share things, [...]

I’ve been touting in pretty much this past month’s blog posts that we need not pit Android phones against iPhones. Why can’t we do both? Why do we always  need to choose teams? Why does  it always have to be a battle?
Today’s Android Twitter stream was inundated with links to an article on eMarketer, “How [...]

Trying to keep abreast of new technologies is a feat unto itself. Especially when the technology soup has gotten a whole lot tastier. More exotic ingredients makes for a hearty dish AND people are expecting a whole lot more than just the typical menu flare.
The term Web 2.0 will slowly fade but still be part [...]

The holidays wouldn’t be complete without a peak at what antics our androids are up to.
whatsupandroid.com wants to wish everyone a safe  and special holiday. I hope everyone finds an Android under their tree,  in their stocking, but most of all, in their hands! :-)

I’ve always said (like many others before me) that to compare Apple’s iPhone to any Android phone is like comparing apples to oranges. People still pit the respective app stores as obvious rivals and understandably so. I suppose coming up with ways in which Android differs from Apple or the ways in which Apple’s iPhone [...]

I read a very interesting article today on the CNN site, written by By Tom Krazit, CNET. The jist of the read pointed out the risqué’ness of Google’s decision to come out with a Google Phone *their own*, said to be named the Nexus One.
If Google plans to sell the Nexus One directly to consumers, [...]

The news came in bits and bytes over the past month. Arrington confirmed it here but after that, it was still a “I’ll believe it when I see it.”
Then, more bits and bytes streamed in yesterday. Talk of giving Google employees dog food. Then the “self contained” jealous tweets about the public not being [...]

Ah, the conference. We’ve all been there, done that. We pick out an industry event we want to attend for the value of learning new things, networking with people, meeting some key contacts and best of all, having the opportunity to perhaps, connect with the right person or persons that could help benefit our current [...]
