THOUGHT: Growing Technosexuals in Seattle's Best Greenbelt 3

First entry is the sweetest! I'm currently surfing (wirelessly) using my iBook at Seattle's Best Greenbelt. Before I've taken my seat earlier, I know I'm the only one who has a laptop in this joint. More than an hour have passed, there are already around 3 Windows XP powered notebooks and one other Powerbook 12". People in this side of the metro is starting to feel the coming out of their "technosexuality".


No its not homosexual, silly!


"Technosexual is a term for people who are into lifestyle, fashion, home, grooming. But we take (it) one step further and we use gadgets as our new fashion accessory," said Technosexual.org founder Ricky Montalvo.


Speaking of technosexuals, there is a cool and sexy chick (in front of my table right now) tapping her way through with a Sony Ericsson P800. Hmmnn, she wants to have a feel of belongingness in this highly technosexual joint. :-D I hear Jones screaming now!!! :-P


To Aileen: You're still the love of my life. Don't worry. ;-)


Today's Rant


Speaking of feeling technosexuals, lets rewind to the beginning of my stay here at Seattle's Best. Over an hour ago, when I'm about to order my drink at the counter, I was greeted by a clueless female (mid thirties to forties) who kept on asking the barista about silly questions like what type of coffee blah blah! Other than coffee, she asks the barista - "You know I have a laptop at home that has a wireless built-in, blah blah blah!" Woman! Don't burn the time of the barista! We are about 5 or 6 already waiting for your query to end. You may want to order now?


For the record, I'm no technosexual (since I love my t610's belt clip case so much!).

THOUGHT: Blogging Wirelessly with My Tungsten T (w/o GPRS)




I'm now at home successfully hooked up via a bluetooth network connection
with my nephew's Win XP machine. Just attached a Billionton Bluetooth
adapter to his PC, connect, now I'm blogging wirelessly with my Tungsten T.
Neat setup ey? :-)

APPS: VeriChat™




Just installed VeriChat™ on my Tungsten T. So far, I'm impressed! For those who still don't know what VeriChat™ is, here's a brief description of that app:


VeriChat™ - VeriChat™ is an Unified Instant Messaging (IM) application for SmartPhones and other connected Palm devices such as the Tungsten C. VeriChat™ works with your persistent (GPRS/CDMA 1xRTT) or CSD wireless data connection to give you an always-on presence on the Yahoo!, ICQ, MSN & AOL chat networks. You don't have to be in the VeriChat™ application for you to chat with your buddies. They always see you as online and can send you messages, and you can receive and reply to them. You can be logged onto Yahoo, ICQ, Microsoft Messenger and AOL IM at the same time and can be talking to your buddies on either of these networks simultaneously.


Its simply combining your computer and your mobile devices to keep you constantly connected wirelessly. I'll write my experience as I continue to use this new found joy.

THOUGHT: Stress-Free Vacation




I NEED A VACATION! Being inside the Dilbert cubicle is so stressful (I tell you). A month's worth of vacation on some secluded island - ALONE! A time to be quiet and just appreciate the beauty of nature (with a glass of iced tea!) Hmmnn, might be a good way to spend the lent this year. No coffee for the entire week. Come to think of it, lent is already next week! :-P Looking forward!

Guys, just don't forget to reflect and repent!
