Hootsuite comes to Android – FINALLY

ffvvm3n4iPhone users have enjoyed Hootsuite for a while, but the team of developers at Hootsuite have been nice enough to bring it to Android.

Hootsuite integrates, social networking and communications in to one place, making it easier to manage your accounts. And in my opinion has done a great job by recently adding Facebook and linkedin.

Being able to review all your incoming communications in to one spot makes things easier and more entertaining.

Digsby: Just One Stop for Instant Messaging

mxmfadvnWhen someone tries to go around and be omnipresent with the Internet and all their buddies it’s kind of hard to do when all the different Instant Messaging protocols are different. This makes it so much better when you’ve a program/application like DISGBY around to bring it all together.

It’s more than an Instant Messaging client for AIM, MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, Google Talk, Facebook Chat, MySpace, and Jabber; it also brings together other social services like Facebook and Twitter posts.

Here’s what you can expect…

Android: TALKTOME Keyboard

Android voice recognitionI’m a big proponent of using voice commands and voice recognition with PC and electronic devices [ask anyone]. The release of Dragon NaturallySpeaking for the iPhone was a premier event. iPhone didn’t have voice recognition before; while Android did- although very poor.

As an user of DROID, I was looking for alternatives and best choice for voice recognition on the DROID; basically all of them go through the Google voice recognition engine, but it’s about the GUI they put with it..

I found TALKTOME Keyboard…

Facebook App on Android – still not working.

Facebook DROID Fix meThis is just a small blip, but completely frustrating to all ANDROID/DROID users out there.

One of the flagship apps on DROID [Facebook] is not working; it hasn’t been working since late November 2009. Just about everyone who’s online has a Facebook account and they update their account once a day, but the cool part is getting notifications from Facebook…

And that’s the part that’s not working…

iPhone Stepping Closer To Being Outmoded

iPhone droidSo how many iPhone users are out there were sweating the launch of DROID?

Well you should be… your fancy iPhone is on it’s way out the door. [I hear the boo’s and hissing now] AND it’s not so much Apple’s fault…

The iPhone is an excellent piece of hardware and it’s presentation and abilities set the new standard for ‘personal access devices’ or Smartphone’s, but…

AnDROID gets Dragon NaturallySpeaking?

DROID Dragon NaturallySpeaking

ANDROID has voice recognition from Google built right in to the Operating System for DROID, but the recognition of Dragon NaturallySpeaking is far greater than Google at this point.

How long is it going to before DROID is going to get Dragon NaturallySpeaking?

Voice Recognition: Dragon NaturallySpeaking vs AnDROID

DROID Dragon NaturallySpeaking[6]I recently purchased a Motorola DROID ‘phone’ and I’ve been trying to get some updates from Nuance for some time now, on its initial offering of Dragon NaturallySpeaking, for the iPhone; not much yet.

Maybe the fact I don’t have an iPhone is a hindrance. I asked to be included with the beta testing team, but never got the invite.

But is all this voice recognition a lost effort on the iPhone?

Dragon NaturallySpeaking on the iPhone [free for a limited time]

Dragon NaturallySpeaking iPhoneIt was back in June that I posted Nuance was releasing Dragon NaturallySpeaking for the iPhone and request after request has been asked for the progress- well I finally have some.

This is a short video with someone who has never used voice recognition and had just installed the Dragon NaturallySpeaking application on the iPhone.

You’ve to watch this video I made of a complete nooby-person using Dragon NaturallySpeaking for the iPhone.
