Sophia there was just an article in the nytimes personal tech section about less-fancy more-cheap "smartphones", you might want to look at?
Buffistechnology 3: "Press Some Buttons, See What Happens."
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I had one from Virgin that was awesome, btw, and super cheap for both the phone and the access plan. Until I dropped it in a puddle. So I don't recommend that.
That one is actually free if I re-up my contract... and it is red...
I'm ignorant in general about smart phones, but I thought all Blackberries were web capable.
Bloglines is shutting down on October 1.
I'm really bummed about that. Bloglines is my reader. I tried Google Reader and I don't find it as easy to use.
I switched to Google Reader a few years ago because I found it somewhat better and was tired of Bloglines being down as often as it was.
yeah, I switched to google reader for the same reason. I also like the keyboard commands to quick go through feeds.
Spidra, can we help you transition to google reader?
Spidra, Bloglines will let you export a list of your blog subscriptions, which you can then import into Google Reader (saving you from having to enter them all by hand).
Google reader is better, but I switched to Bloglines because some Google reader was causing my computer to crash. (Not reader's fault: this is an old computer and I suspect it was hitting a bad spot in the disk or in Ram or something of that sort.)
