This important blog is coming to you from the Droid X. Well, technically it's from me, but I am using my phone to write this post. I was downloading apps the other day for my Droid X, when it hit me, to try and write a blog post using it. Therefore, forgive any typos, as this is an experiment.
Using this new media, and comparing it with using a traditional computer for posting, I can honestly say I'm a faster typist on the computer. Also, I had no idea that my little (depending how you view it ) phone had so many possibilities. This thing can do so much and it is so complex. It has so many apps. I can find my phone through GPS if it is stolen, I can text a special phrase to my phone to start ringing if I lose it, and I can even take pictures of things I can't describe and search for them on Google. Ridiculous. The world is at my figertips, literally. It has to blow my grandparents minds if it blows mine, because I grew up using computers, and I am still amazed at the possibilities.
I can find he nearest stores, restaurants, navigate to them with my free Google Maps GPS, and check scores on ESPN any time of the day. I would never have made it not knowing some of those scores! I can keep all my dog's information from birth in my phone, and have all her information any time I need it. I can check my heart rate, eat healthy, call people on Skype from my phone, and chat with them too. I can check for dangerous weather instantly, read the news, watch television, or even movies. I can check my car speed, see if a surface is level, and entertain friends with a random facts app.
The possibilities are endless. I know that many people already know the capabilities for these smart phones, and I thought I did, but now it is just such a big concept to wrap my head around. It's fascinating. No matter how much I love my Droid X, I will probably use my Mac for posting blogs from now on. I'm glad computers aren't going anywhere for a long time.
