Here at BGR we have been known to drop a tweet or two from time to time — we’re looking squarely at you @bettiol — and although we usually use a certain Twitter client since we’re rockin’ BlackBerry smartphones, we were still happy to hear Twitter’s mobile site has received a makeover. The previous iteration of Twitter’s mobile site was, how do we put this, non functional impossible frustrating useless bad, so when the new site hit we were skeptical. However, we are happy to report that the new mobile site is fully featured, properly laid out, easy to use, and well designed. We actually kind of like it. Now, the current version is only optimized for WebKit based browsers (Android, iPhone, WebOS, ect.), but the site does seem to run on our BlackBerry browsers just fine. Go ahead, take you handset over to mobile.twitter.com and give it a whirl. If you are really bored you could always friend @mdflores, @andrewmunchbach, @bettiol or our official @boygeniusreport account. Don’t say we didn’t warn you about Mikey though!

P.S. We’d post BG’s Twitter username but he insists on only having “organic” followers. If you’d like to add him, it’s not like it is rocket science…

We have been working to update the current version of Window mobile Phone locator.

Our main vision with this software is for it to be a very light weight program that you can keep running in the background, and that will take up very few resources.

Additionally a small footprint will allow us to keep battery usage down as well as minimize the need to power on either the GPS radio, or the Cell radio- as each are tremendious drains upon ones cell phone battery.

Some main features we hope to incorporate:

- Ability to send a emergency txt/sms to your lost / stolen cellphone, that would trigger it to send back a gps location or to keep trying until it can get a gps signal.

- Ability to set the “ping� interval - thus controling how often your phone reports its location to this site under normal usage.

Again the key here is to make a free, lightweght program that allows us Window Mobile users to have some kind of premitive tracking abililty with out phone, with out slowing down the acutal phone or killing the battery life.

keep checking back for more info! or contact us below if you have any questions / suggestions.
