Calcium Ion

I was trying to do this 2 years ago. After several ons and offs, it’s finally released.

Introducing the super dialer for Android phones: Keypad S

S is named after my girlfriend. Happy Birthday Sunny!

If the Internet were there, this would be a viral video

I like this part:

“What about 3?

We don’t talk about 3″

Like I mentioned before, I also tried to make a Instapaper client. However, I dropped it because I thought any developer wise enough to build a decent client would figure out the project cannot be sustainable (there are many reasons, like the subscription fee Marco is asking for renders it totally not competitive).

Since I saw the Papermill on The Verge several weeks ago, I have always been interested in knowing how the story will develop. Now, the developer posted a look back at the first weeks. It’s sad to see someone learnt it in a hard way.

Upon reading news like Apple vs. Google: The Stakes Are Rising on the WSJ, I got this feeling that Google is pursuing too many segmentations and seems not putting enough efforts into any of them.

Does Amazon target the wrong one? Kindle Fire has more advantages against the iPod touch, which is also in the same price tier, instead of iPad.

That’s how Apple took off, how NeXT more or less failed.

As I said in How many early adopters left?: “Targeting freshmen would be Windows phone’s best chance.”

Half a year ago, I was doing an Instapaper client for Android using Marco’s public API, but discontinued it for many reasons. In a nutshell, I can’t see how the project is going to sustain itself.

Now, it seems clearer.

UPDATED: again, not any more. Marco didn’t mean it.
