Holy crap. Awesome.

Narrow-minded
From an experience… Narrow-minded people seem to think that their ideas are the only ones with any value; the only thoughts worth being entertained. Could be quite the opposite, really… someone like that probably isn’t worth listening to at all. Anyway, I’m glad that I am able to see value in others’ ideas (even those narrow-minded ones I guess). Think about it.
It’s not so much that you don’t care what someone thinks, it’s more like it doesn’t matter what they think.
Just a general thought I have had rolling around in mt noggin for a little while about unimportant people and their narrow-minded judgments.
Mango update for WP7
I’m happy to finally receive the update for my Windows Phone 7 device - the Optimus 7 (now starting to dislike the handset itself, but the update makes it better).
Some things immediately appreciated by me:
- Subtle improvements to the UI - noticeable in Zune, Pictures, App list
- Shutter sound in camera is less boisterous - and can be muted by lowering volume
- Twitter integration (good for sharing quick updates, maybe not so much for sharing images)
- Ability to email/share video (previously only images)
- Linked inboxes (yet to see if this works brilliantly)
- Multitasking/recent applications
- Integration of chat clients into messaging (Fb, Live, etc)
- Improvements to IE (and Youtube)
So far so good.
Love this.
TechCrunch complaining about Facebook ripping off MyPad
So both apps use a two-column layout. Woopty doo. The TechCrunch article mentions design flattery, but what I consider is that the MyPad application was simply well-designed, so when Facebook goes to design something well it comes out similarly. You can’t blame them for going for the two-column layout though.
Then again, I also understand the other perspective. Facebook’s application is quite similar, and now MyPad’s iPad application is obsolete.

Woo! Love this. Can’t quite afford $85 on a piggy bank, but maybe one day.
