Slingpost has successfully upgraded their iPhone application which makes use of iPhones GPS which is able to produce voice notes so as to basically find users from all over the globe. As you may already be aware, Slingpost is the parent firm of GeoGraffiti which is a geolocation service which essentially gives their users the capability of to browsing through various “voicemarks” to hear what others have recorded or to alternately find any users in your local area at large. It has been described as being somewhat like radar detection for voice messages. A pretty handy feature for certain applications indeed.
This iPhone application in question will be able to constantly track your locale and is even updated several times per hour if you are on the go. for instance; if you are driving in your car, you may want to set it to call your iPhone and give updates on any new local voicemarks so you could detect the whereabouts of others as you are driving thru or you can leave your own voicemark for others looking for you. An idea that 1 user has for this pocket sized gadget is to use it to set up scavenger hunts or to leave various clues for others during espionage games. Or as at least one person has put it, it is much like scribbled graffiti on your iPhone, left there for all others to see, or hear as is in this case.

Hi everyone just got back from the promised land and it is time to start blogging again. Alright I have some new technology news out of the great state of New york for you: The Google corporation has a brand new telephone that is set to come out possibly by September 17th. One media source in question  reportedly is stating that the HTC Android phone will pounce on the markets by next month. Rumors about the release of this phone continue to swirl, it seems. meanwhile, another source claims that the new Android phone will not be available until 2009. This T-Mobile phone is a smart phone made by HTC smart phone manufacturer. This phone is apparently going to be offered to current T-Mobile customers for around $400 but if a 2-year contract is signed, the phone will go for around $150. It is slated to be offered to new customers during the first part of October.

 All in all, the new Android telephone is possibly going to support 3G services and will have a touch screen, a QWERTY keyboard that slides out, along with a 3-megapixel camera. This particular gadget needs a Gmail account prior to setting up the service and rumor is that it could be just a bit  more expensive for the 3G data plan but definite details have not not been released as of the time of this writing. In addition, T-Mobile refused to comment on these rumors but had previously claimed that it would offer a new Android phone by the end of the year or so…. 

 On a bit of a down note, it seems that the 3G-service plan may be found lacking by some subscribers, unfortunately. As of right now, this service will only be available in New York and Las Vegas, Nevada with another twenty-plus urban areas to be included by the end of this year. T-Mobile will continue to work on getting it to other cities throughout 2009. it should be noted, however, that the google corporation has been critized in some circles as having a rather poor record with regards to privacy rights.
