If you know me at all you will know hat I am a fan of most things Google. So for me, the release of the Chrome browser was exciting. Not that it can compete with FireFox yet because it lacks the ability to add plugins but it is very fast and it runs my Gmail beautifully.
Even more exciting though is the pending release of the first Android based mobile phone by T-Mobile in the USA. For those of you who don’t follow this stuff, Android is the name given to an operating system developed by Google specifically for mobile phones. So who cares about an operating system for mobile phones? Well if you like free software and use the very cool, free applications that Google makes available, then be interested because this phone is likely to run most of these applications and give you access to your data on the phone.
So how to track these developments? Perhaps the best place is AndroidGuys, a blog started by a couple of Android fans who just happen to work for T-Mobile. Go and have a look and if you like it add it to your feeds.
And the question remains, when will we see an Android phone in South Africa and which of the networks will be first to release it?
