#“Dave Barry: Super Bowl was great - and so was the game” All in all I thought it was a terrific Super Bowl, except when the Toyota Corolla with the stuck throttle crashed through the west grandstands and took out the entire CBS sideline reporting staff.

But not one mention of N95, N96 and a bazillion other N-series handsets which are owned by people who actually use Social Networks on their phones.

Singing comedians are like musical theatre, good at neither.But Tim Minchin did make me giggle recently on Jonathan Ross. Then last night I saw this and he made laugh out loud. Several times. Superb. »

#“Flash, HTML5, and Mobile Apps” I know where I personally come out in this fight. I much prefer a "web-centric handheld world" to a "proprietary app centric universe". And that's why I carry a Google phone instead of an iPhone.
