First post (should I call it virgin post ;-P) : mere waale iphone app

I had bought an iphone ard 2 months back. Most of my friends know that I have been struggling since then to justify this purchase. I like all the jazz of touch screen but I am not convinced on need to spend $$$ for a bigger phone (which is everything else but a good phone).


Come on face it - iphone is not a great phone. Hold one way and signal/voice will fade, hold close to your cheeks (spl if you have chubby cheeks like mine) then depending upon cheek's surface area, either factime will start, or mute or speaker will get on. Contact list is sorted on last name (pls who the hell does that). And for some reason, this phone doesn't work well with my car bluetooth (oh I love my car - but more on that some other time). Hence, it's not a good phone but, it's everything else.


Back to topic - I keep on trying all free apps . Recently I tried 'line2' and google voice. These app allows users to make VoIP calls which means free calls over wifi. Very simple to configure and use. Follow steps to select 2nd number and use these app to make calls with wifi connection without using minutes. Voice quality is perfect and they allows you to use iphone contact list to select numbers (no need to key in numbers).

 These are THE app for a person like me who has become a big minute spender and who has started eating all those sweet saved roll over minutes to the extend that my husband has noticed that. So expect to get more calls from my 'other' number in evenings now :-)

At Last

I had been thinking of blogging for quite some time. But I have this habit of NOT doing what everyone else is doing. So when  realized that everyone else is blogging, I lost interest in it. However it has been some time that I have seen new blogs so I think (in my perfect world) that this fad is getting old now. So here I am - starting to write things about me and my life !

I am going to have threads on my blogs - threads to different things in my life, things around my life, opinions and suggestions. Since I usually don't have time and patience to write everything about anything at one time, I will keep on adding my thoughts to these threads. So keep reading!
