Feb. 23rd, 2010 09:40 amGood morning blogland!
I am packed. I am at work. I am sure I am forgetting something. Status update: complete!
I'm slowly familiarising myself with the new phone (a Droid Eris, for those who asked). The gmail app and the mail app in general are both kind of shit for my purposes, and even if they weren't quasi-useless they're plug-ugly. On the other hand, Gmail's built in mobile-phone-page is great, so instead of using the gmail app I've just bookmarked Gmail's homepage on my menu screen. Works the same as an app, and I can actually USE IT because I get RECEPTION.
I'm so excited by the possibilities of a mobile phone that works in places other than:
-- next to my living room window
--the Grand & State subway station
-- the pavement outside my building
For reals.

bodlon, I have a bit of a promo for you this morning as well. Polyphony, an award-nominated cross-genre anthology series, is hoping to release its seventh volume in July, but needs to secure a certain amount of pre-orders by March 1st so that production can go forward. If you're interested in an anthology of genre short stories, you can check out Polyphony 7 here; it retails for $20 plus shipping, and there's a preorder link at the bottom of the page (if they don't make the preorder number, all orders will be refunded; if they do, it should ship in July).
Support small presses, burgeoning authors, and fellow genre geeks! Have a look and, if you're interested, order a copy. :)
