Weather Information Could Get So Fascinating with Weather Applications

Sometimes watching a weather forecast is really boring. Is it going to rain? Or is it going to be sunny? What if you’re out somewhere where television and radio is unavailable and then rain starts to pour. What do you expect next?

A User Review of GrabBox

There are a number of apps that allow you to share screenshots by uploading them, but GrabBox has some features that sets it apart from the rest. One of these is its online service, Dropbox. The main advantage of this is that, unlike some similar programs, the images that you share using GrabBox won’t disappear when the developer makes changes to the software, but will remain available at the same URL.

Dropbox benefits the developer, by eliminating bandwidth costs, thus helping to sustain the service. It also benefits the user, as you can easily rename files, you always have local copies, and you can easily browse uploaded files even if you’re not online. GrabBox is also unique in that it only facilitates sharing of screenshots. It’s simple to set up – on launching, your Dropbox folder is automatically detected, then you can use the ‘Copy Public Link’ command on files in that folder.

After that, whenever you snap a screenshot with the built-in tools for screenshots in OSX, that screenshot will automatically be moved into a new subfolder in your Dropbox folder. The screenshot’s Dropbox URL will automatically be copied to your clipboard, and can be pasted into a chat session, tweet, or email. (more…)

The Samsung Instinct S30

 

A newer version of the Samsung Instinct touch screen phone has come out this year – the Samsung Instinct S30. Even though a newer version of the phone was much expected, however, it failed to meet most people’s expectations, for the simple reason that there were not any major changes to the phone. It’s nothing more than slight redesign with very few feature changes. The Samsung Instinct S30 costs around $129 along with a contract which to be honest is a pretty good bargain.

The new Instinct phone shares the same shape as its predecessor; however, by a close comparison one can easily see that it has a slightly sleeker design and curved corners. The size of the phone is almost the same as the original. It’s 4.57 inches tall, 2.11 inches wide and 0.48 inches thick, only 0.1 inches slimmer than the original. The phone is available in two different colors copper and cobalt metal.

The screen of the phone is 3.2 inches long and there’s not much difference between the touch screen of the old and the new model. The phone has a virtual dial pad and QWERTY keyboard very similar to the original.
