had some fun toying with Google Goggles this morning. Goggles uses your phone’s camera to do image-based search for products, landmarks, media, shops etc. the results I was getting for products & books are pretty accurate. most impressive: I snapped the artwork (no text, title at all) of a german, medical text-book – first result [...]
unboxing the RBM2, which is produced by Huawei exclusively for Red Bull Mobile and should hit stores on monday, nov. 9th. the RBM2 seems to be a quite decent Android phone, with a form-factor & featureset (UMTS, GPS, half-VGA 3.5″ touch-display) similar to the iPhone. the RBM2 comes with a modified Wikitude AR-browser displaying Red Bull-related [...]
1) download and install the wonderful Wavr-Plugin by Lucas Caro (thx!)
2) the plugin version 0.2 includes hardcoded URLs to the Wave-sandbox (wave.google.com/a/sandbox) – if you want to use it with Wave production (wave.google.com), edit wavr.php and replace “http://wave.google.com/a/sandbox/” with “http://wave.google.com/wave/” on line 109
3) create a new post or page and include a snippet like this: [...]

while there’s still no way to get root-access for manually upgrading the firmware of the Austrian T-Mobile G1, MobileCrunch has a promising screencast of Android’s development-branch, codenamed ‘Cupcake’. besides a large number of bugfixes, Cupcake is supposed to include essential new features like a process-manager (to kill those power-sucking background-apps), browser-extensions (improved JavaScript performance, copy&paste, [...]
it’s been almost a week since I first started testing the G1, and so far my initial impression hasn’t really changed that much. like many of my fellow testers I’m disappointed by many aspects of both hardware and software. while the former would make me wait for a successor (I guess the G2 can’t be [...]
visiting Vienna’s WerkzeugH yesterday evening, one might easily have had the impression Vienna’s blogging geeks collectively got something mixed up in their calendars about christmas this year. impatient looks, nervously shuffling feet – and then finally – hastily unboxing, clumsy attempts of inserting batteries & SIMs, followed by the happy smiles only gadget-lovers can sport … (drama [...]
just found a very cool Adobe AIR-based desktop-app for accessing Google Analytics…try it out!
Googler Dolapo Falola has spent his 20% self-allocated time improving the mobile version of Google Reader, especially tinkering with the iPhone-ized app, which is easily the most comfortable way to read feeds on the go – thx! all important features (sharing & starring items, tags) are accessible through the top navigation and the app is [...]
