My Phone

(This is the first post in a series.)

He has kept things running at his current job using minimum resources, lots of patience, and an interesting variation of stubborn loyalty. When others would have bailed, he stuck with it to see his plans change and go to fruition. He has been in charge of websites, networks, podcasting, social network monitoring and information dissemination, among other things.

He carries two phones, work and a personal. This post deals with his own phone.

  • Phone: Motorola Droid Razr Maxx
  • Ringtone: When I downloaded it, the name was “business_classic_cel”. It’s the ringtone that Dexter Morgan in the Showtime series “Dexter” has on his phone.
  • Case: It is one that Verizon sold me. It has a holster, and the back of the phone has a fold out stand. I don’t use the holster much, but I use the stand for when I am listening to music at my desk or while charging so if someone calls I only have to glance over to see who it is and not pick up the phone.
  • Background: It’s the “Bazinga!” logo that used for the t-shirts for Sheldon Cooper on the series “Big Bang Theory”.
  • Last text: to a friend and co-worker about a mms they sent me.
  • Last app I used: The last two I used were Gmail and Evernote. Checking email on three accounts and making a note for next week.
  • Currently obsessed with: Evernote, I have been a long time user, I form my posts using it, and then revise them, and then post them.
  • Last Download: Kingsoft Office, I am trying it out on the phone to see if it can do some Microsoft Office document edits quickly enough. (Though on a phone, some things are never as easy as they should be.)
  • Most surprising app on the home screen: Freely, I was using it to see if I liked how they handle RSS feeds, given that Google Reader will be closing up shop soon. I don’t like the tile-like showing of the feeds.
  • Text or call: Text, I don’t like to talk on the phone unless it is brief.
  • Remaining battery: 90%. It’s early in the day, its a weekend, and its quiet for once.
