I’ve been playing around with my ‘new’ phone. A few months ago I bought the HTC Hero with Sprint. I read through the instruction manual numerous times trying to figure everything out. But that manual is just an introduction to what the phone can do. The rest you have to figure out on your own.
So I’ve been learning some new things. I’ve been able to make it where when someone calls me their Facebook profile picture pops up. That’s pretty cool, and it’s pretty weird. People are constantly changing their pictures so I am constantly surprised when someone calls me.
The biggest thing I’ve figured out is the calendar. I can go in and add events, show the weather for a particular day, and view multiple days at a time. I’ve set up a Gmail account and can get on a computer and do the same thing. The coolest part of that is I don’t have to plug my phone into my computer to sync the calendars. It does it automatically!! When I hit enter on my computer my phone is updated within seconds. The same goes when I put events into my phone.
The only bad thing I’ve found about this little application is I now have no excuse for not remembering something. I’ve also come to realize just how busy life with three kids is!! Almost every single day has some sort of activity posted on it. Melanie has access to my calendar and can post events too. That’s a good thing because when she used to tell me something I would rely on my steel trap of a memory to help me remember the event. That didn’t work too well so now I have no excuse.
I’m busy.
