Google Voice – Call Me!
I’m doing a little interactive blog experiment. You should see a button at the bottom of the posting that reads “Call Me.” It’s a direct link to my Google Voice phone number. Currently, I have it set for this button to send you straight to voicemail. Supposedly, Google Voice will transcribe your messages and send [...]
See – There’s an App for Everything!

Converting From The iPhone To The BlackBerry Storm
As of 10:15 A.M. on Saturday morning, I am officially a Verizon Wireless subscriber. I have wanted a good reason to switch from AT&T to Verizon for some time now.
