Chris Brogan recently spoke at a LinkedOC event I attended and confessed to us he does not use location based services. He stated “Foursquare is the AOL of yesterday. It is not the best, but its all we got“. Although I agree with Chris and have never really seen the merit of “checking-in” I am now a believer in their future.
I have spent the last few months testing location based services Foursquare, Gowalla and Whrrl on my iPhone 4. This post is not intended to be [...]

I was very lucky to get my hands on this case yesterday. I managed to contain my excitment just long enough to do a quick first impression REVIEW.
I want to share with you some technical details regarding this case but first lets look at the design.
The EXOGEAR EXOLIFE IPHONE 4G CASE is lightweight and the design is streamlined. This case does NOT add a large bulk to the user experience like most of the battery cases do. EXOGEAR actually crafted the bottom of the unit to look like a true extension [...]

So I have been working hard on pushing our company and brand. We use every available outlet to show off our services and gain mass exposure. No better place for creating buzz in the “SoMe” than twitter, and no better client to use than Twittelator. I use both Twittelator for iPad and Twittelator Pro for my iPhone 4G and must say they are both extremely complete. For power users it is a marriage made in heaven.
TwittelatorPro has all the standard features we have grown accustom to with a [...]

Darn Palm Users!
Picture this, your on I-5 or the 405 in Los Angeles and your going 70mph and up in front of you a car is going abnormally slow and swerving ever so slightly back and forth. You approach with caution thinking maybe they hit the “daddy juice” a little too hard but then you realize its 7:30 am and your on your way to work. As you pass, the driver is staring down, coffee in one hand, phone in the other and no eyes on the road. This exact scene I’m sure can [...]

I just downloaded Text’nDrive Pro and so far so good. Take a look at the full review at TUAW, I will post my updates after I use it on the road for a week. If it works like I think it will, it will be well worth the high $9.99 price tag. Stay tuned for review. If you have it, leave me a comment below and let me know how you like it Cheers!
