I just got Opera Mini 3 installed on my ocean and wanted try the functionality with Wordpress. The stock browser can’t handle logging into wordpress so I was doubtful but so far so good. I’ll need to experiment some more but I’m impressed so far.

Microsoft Releases Tafiti

TechCrunch asks - Microsoft Tafiti is Beautiful, But Will Anyone Use It? The answer is NO.

I was playing with Tafiti doing random searches, storing stuff to the search “shelf”, playing with the tree view and I decided to show my wife – if only for the wow factor. She was completely unimpressed. She didn’t care about the sleek look, or the cool technology behind the scenes, it just seemed to obscure her search results. I think at this point most users are so used to search results being simple - getting them to use anything new would be difficult.

Test Post From Flock

I installed flock a long time ago – never used it and ended up uninstalling it. Somehow I stumbled across the flock site today and decided to give it another try. It looks like there are some nice new features – hopefully it will be a little more useful to me than last time I installed it – if it does I will post about the features I find useful.
