Random nerdery

Friday I updated my DroidX with Gingerbread. It was a rocky transition, I won’t lie, but the end result is good. So good in fact, that this morning I updated Spouse’s phone. If you want to know how much of a geek I am, I was thoroughly stoked to add PasswordCard, Shazam and Netflix (among other things) to his device. It’s the first time since activation that I’ve really gotten my hands on his phone. Also, demonstrated voice texting. w00t!

What I learned this week: Smartphones are wasted on at least 50% of the population. This because one of my work contacts (also owns a DroidX) was asking me what kind of things to do with the phone. He’s had his longer than I’ve had mine. I introduced him to Swype and Google Voice Search. He was impressed.

I love living in the future.
