when i first saw the new google phone i was kinda let down. i am sure most people were since we are all used to the uber flashy iphone. even cnn did a story on the review of the new phone title google’s htc dream phone — that’s it? – read the review here

now i can’t say anything about the phone’s functionality since i haven’t used one but i can say that the thing is so underwhelming looking it is almost painful. i can see they were trying to go with a minimalist approach but imo it just looks like a cheap piece of plastic. but then again… i have yet to actually touch one.

i didn’t really get all that interested until i decided to check out the android open source project. i watched this video above and was totally into it. i consider myself a nerd but i don’t know half of what these guys are talking about – i was just super into the concept and the fresh perspective. i kept thinking while i was watching the dude with the dangling earring i wonder what that dude is like at a bar drinking a beer? – i would bet he would be a blast to hang with. but that’s just me. plus i have a thing for those excited to give their ideas away.

i wonder if that earring is bluetooth or a device that is communicating to a large spaceship far far away?

in other news!

my pal chris kalani informed me this morning that my site was mentioned on a design blog giving me props for my wacky footer. w00t!

i think it is kinda funny since some of the other footers are technically amazing and mine is just a picture of me making a dumb face with a tag cloud floating – which includes favorites like: darsh, fat-kid and freaks.
