Trillian For Android Open Beta - Update

I have been very impressed so far with the latest update to the Trillian Android Beta version the only bugs I seem to have lately is that the push e-mail does not seem to work from what I can tell. I cannot set my display picture and scrolling is broken in landscape mode. Other then that I think it is better then any IM client currently on the market but I will be giving Beejive a test run later on.

Just Want To Say Thanks

I just want to say thanks to everyone that has helped make the last three months of working on this blog worth the time. With the traffic I have seen grow pretty stably over the past 3 months I do not have any plans on stopping this blog now. Hopefully I well manage to keep the content coming sadly I started getting a little picky with the Android news topics. I would like to do more app reviews though if anyone has an app out there that has not been reviewed yet let me know. My old side project EverythingAnnoying.com is starting to come together now with the Android app from App Inventor helping people get a little more use out of the website. I should have a review for App Inventor coming this week and if you have not you should sign up for the beta for App Inventor its worth taking a look at. I may or may not make an app for this site as well when I get some time. The idea for the app at the moment is "TekHawk's Android News Reporter" hopefully letting some of my Android followers turn use it to help report the latest news as they discover to so that I can research and get you all the facts about the story.

Well heres to the next three months.

Inhibition

Inhibition
Inhibition my restriction
This life my prison
What moral holds me
Binds my tongue
Holds my lips
And brings me to this state of decision
To be one of society
Or to lash out at those who oppress me
Inhibition what keeps me from becoming the monster
The Beast within me
The Demon I hide so deep inside
To release all inhibition would be
To become more then just a machine
Conform no more but be released
Released by society
Released from life it self
Because without inhibition
I'm no longer fit to live amongst the rest

Sanity Insanity Crazy And Distorted

Sanity Insanity Crazy And Distorted
Sanity, insanity, crazy and distorted
What are these things
What is this state of mind
Sanity by definition is
The soundness of mind
Insanity, crazy & distorted
Are all of key together
One cannot be one with out tasting of the other
Crazy by definition is
Knowing that true sanity is
A figment of the educated mind

Tweet Deck Android 0.9.4 Notification Settings Finally

 Yes at long last "only a week in" we have notification settings the thing I wonder still how it was not in the first beta release. Over all the way it is done in the UI leaves a lot of wondering if it was the best way to do it or not and might leave a lot of users confused at first. But it does work and it works fine so far for me any comments on success of this feature for you are welcome.

Google Video And Voice Chat For Linux

Can you say FINALLY! This must be a sign that Chrome OS is not that far away and that they finally got this dialed down on it and wanted to share it with the rest of us Linux users.

If you’ve been wanting to use voice and video chat on Linux (our top video chat request), then we have good news for you: it’s now available! Visit gmail.com/videochat to download the plugin and get started. Voice and video chat for Linux supports Ubuntu and other Debian-based Linux distributions, and RPM support will be coming soon.
