Vlog 1: Samsung Genio Touch

Tuesday, November 10, 2009


Well it looks like Youtube has decided to work for me today and I have been able to upload my short video review of my new phone. It is more a video of my initial thoughts rather than a full in-depth review. I recorded it using my webcam so I apologize for the sound quality, hopefully you can hear me. Also there is a slight bit of interference from the phone connecting to the service provider but that shouldn't be too much of a problem.

I recorded this review a couple of days ago so I feel more adjusted to the phone now. As I have stated in the video, I think it is a really good phone and it is simple to use. I have yet to encounter any problems with it.
I would recommend the phone to anyone who is looking for an inexpensive touch screen phone and who doesn't want one that is overloaded with unnecessary features. Lets not forget its main function here. :)

Yes this is one of my first video logs in a while. I may record another one but I'm not sure. I might just do them for reviews of things I buy. I prefer to blog about my life rather than talk about it!

At the moment I am currently writing an essay for one of my module assignments. It is pretty intense and I have quite a bit of reading to do. So please bear with me!

Bye for now.

Windows Live Writer

Monday, March 30, 2009

windowslivewriter I just updated my Windows Live Messenger to the new version and it is pretty cool if I do say so myself. I also downloaded this program they had called Windows Live Writer. It allows you to post to your blog from a program that runs on your computer. So far it has been easy to use.

You can uploaded images and add effects to them too. On the left I have put up a screenshot of the software with the reflection effect on it.

The colour scheme has been set by me to pink but you can change it to any colour scheme you want to suit your tastes.

I don’t know if I will be using this program over Blogger as I am still trying it out. But so far it has really impressed me. To say it is a free program it isn’t that bad.

Another good thing about this program is that any pictures you upload to it automatically get hosted in your Picasa web albums.

You also can install cool add-ons for it, I’ve added a Flickr add-on. Which allows me to upload images from my Flickr account or other accounts right to my blog post.

When you are post your blog you can actually preview you blog in your blogs layout made by you. Basically you can preview the post exactly as it will be displayed on the web.

There are many other features of this program but I think for now I will leave it to you to decide what you think of it.

You can download Windows Live Writer here: download.live.com/writer

Hope you have fun with this program!
