What I should be doing if I was a smart little blogger is move this blog to a mobile domain and spend some acquisition budget on getting readers to visit, follow me on twitter (via mobile) and click on my adverts.
But I’m not doing that. In fact before you can just launch in to mobile you need to understand it, entirely and I don’t think that there are many people who have a very high-level holistic understanding that is worth while and valuable.

I searched around the web for a while until I found a way to download evernote to a Blackberry Storm. The Evernote site was of no help really. They seemed to bury the links deep in the site. But I did manage to find them!
Here are the links for Blackberry Storm and non-storm Blackberry’s:
Simply enter those URL’s in to your phones browser and download the app. I’ve got it working on my Mac and my Storm. Very simple. Brilliant application. Lovely environment.
OKGo’s new single: This Too Shall Pass. You cannot view this video on YouTube if you are in SA and various other countries. You also cannot embed the YouTube version of the video as the record labels don’t earn cash per play if the video is embedded.
Anderson Cooper – CNN’s world-traveling investigative war-correspondent recently stepped in to Haiti and broached the #1 ethical debate by his heroic actions. Just a quick disclaimer – the video below verges on graphic content so if you are easily offended and don’t like reality, then don’t watch the below.
Now, the reason that I am quite intrigued by this particular video is that Cooper has dived in and made a very very big statement; by assisting the boy Cooper changed the news. He stepped in and altered his position in the Haiti situation. He is no longer simply an objective journalist, he is no a participant in the news and the one who altered the course of events that he was reporting on.
It’s not very often that journalists themselves become the news by their own choices. For Cooper to have stepped in he must have felt that the boy was in dire straights and needed assistance that he wasn’t receiving from anyone else at the scene.
Personally I completely respect and admire him for stepping in. I made the decision a while back that I refuse to be an observer. I am a doer and people who want to do things have to get involved and not just report the news. I cannot do this. So it’s very interesting to me that a journalist of Cooper’s quality, experience and standing chose to step in, instead of waiting for the news headline to create itself.
Gladly one of my resolutions this year was not to blog more. If it had been I would have failed in a massive way already.
Blogging still bores me somewhat right now. I honestly don’t know if I am going to recover sufficiently to allow myself to actually maintain 2 blogs and a lifestream (nicharalambous.me). I’m over it. I’m over talking, writing, opinions, publishing and the bollocks that goes along with it.
I’m frustrated and fed up. When is the next big thing getting here? I’m bored.
