Amazing Android!!!!

I have bought a new phone this year on 2nd January 2011 to be exact. The phone is the Samsung Galaxy 551 (GT-I5510) with Android 2.2  Froyo. I am amazed to see what this mid priced device can do. I have used smartphones in the past and nothing comes near to Android. I am totally floored with this powerful and totally customizable Linux Platform. I will be posting information and Hacks for Android and this device on my future posts.

A little behind.

Hi Blog, Time has again flown by the last time I actually Blogged... Some people are great at blogging, and probably do not fall in that category.

I was off and on, and one of my new year resolutions was to spend time on my blog... however Poof!!! its 24 days already gone from this new year, and nothing.... yet. I will try my best though.. See ya blog.

Tiger Country... Where are you????

 
 I have been a big fan of Junglelore, and more so of the Tiger. An animal that commands respect from the bravest of the brave. It is sad to see that these majestic creatures are endangered and on the brink of Extinction.
Please click on the link below and pledge your support. Else we will only have to read the stories of the tiger in books and will be a shame that we stood by and did nothing to save these beautiful cats.
