First Google Android G1 Available

The new Google Android phone represents a paradigm shift in the cell phone industry. While this was true for the iPhone as well, the Google Android project is open in nature. Any cell phone manufacturer can adopt the Android standard. As a group, manufacturers will make the platform better.

T-Mobile is the first company to release an Android phone. Arguably, it is certainly a Gen 1 device but the potential is astonishing. After being a holdout, Nokia announced yesterday that they will be producing an Android phone as well.

The thing that make the Android so powerful is not really the device itself but direct access to all of Google's functionality in a mobile device.

Watch for this to take off!

New Microsoft Ad Made With A Mac!

This is hilarious! The new Microsoft ad that was released nationally on Thursday was made with a Mac. Someone determined this by examining the metadata of the screen captures on Flickr.

Needless to say, Microsoft has been scrambling to erase the metadata ever since.

Microsoft Drops Seinfeld

Microsoft decided that the new ads with Jerry Seinfeld were not working out. If you saw any of them you are probably still wondering what they were about. Seinfeld got the last laugh though. He was paid $10million for his efforts.

Boo Boo is Six Weeks Old

It is hard to believe how quickly Boo Boo is growing. If you compare this photo to the photo from my August 30 blog post, just two weeks ago, it looks like he has grown a lot in just a short period of time. He is going to be a big boy :-)

His breeder calls him a 'pistol.' Only 40 days until he get to come home to live with us
