Moto Q: Crap never looked so good

So as anyone knows getting a new phone can bring some excitement. Well for me it gave me a reason to have that in your face, boasting, gloatiful attitude well for a while at least. For any technological geek like myself the Moto Q was the perfect answer. Big, bulky, and a full qwerty keyboard well I was in heaven, right up until I turned it on and realized that Moto Q’s Windows Mobile Os had the look of a pc, and also the crashing rate of one.

It seems that this phone while it looks nice was really a piece of crap, even my LG phone which was certifiable crap was less crapier then this phone. Let’s say in a situation where I needed to make an important phone call or text message I would be better off with two paper cups with a string and a telegraph machine. After a couple months of use I realized this phone was a huge pain in the a**, however I did like the attention I’d get from just simply pulling it out, trust me the reactions were great.

Other then the constant freezing issues easy to use features, storing numbers, calling people houses or cells or texting, well simple features really aren’t even so simple. It’s to complicated for it’s own good almost like the complex watch where you go, “Yea but can it tell time?”

Overall this phone needs to improve, and it will through time and through better understanding of what needs to be done, primarily the freezing and some features. The look is great…yea I love it even though my fat fingers hit all sorts of small buttons all the time almost but it really is a cool looking phone.

 It’s cool yea…but give it time it’ll be less crappy.

TheShadowFan.com updates to version 5.0

TheShadowFan.com is my other website which is dedicated to the 1930s pulp hero known as The Shadow. Since I have merged StuffWeLike.com and TheShadowFan.com in so many ways, I thought it would be important to send out a notice to all StuffWeLike.com users about the new TheShadowFan.com design.

For right now TheShadowFan.com uses the StuffWeLike.com chatroom and Forum. It also uses the same forum. If you have a StuffWeLike.com blog account and would like to create a TheShadowFan.com blog account be sure to use the same information on both accounts. This will sync the two accounts which you’ll mainly notice when using the Forum.

For the rest of the updates check out this post.

If Tony Was A Rock Star

There are times when we have to laugh and have a good time, and this is one of them. Mark Wright has dared to ask the question what if Tony was a rockstar? You know Tony Blair the prime minister of the UK? Ring any bells? Come on people! 😐

“I definitely wanted to carry on with the band. I always wondered, could I have ever actually done it?” – Tony Blair, 2005

“I’ve always been intrigued by a Prime Minister who takes his guitar away with him whenever he goes on holiday. It’s clear that music has been, and continues to be, an important part of his life. Now that he’s stepping down I wonder if he will reform his band and go out on tour? The ‘Ugly Rumours’ reunion is surely long overdue!” – Mark Wright

We’ve got the song playing in the Music – Lyrical show. You’ll be able to buy this song on June 18, 2007 on iTunes and Revolver Records.
