I've been using Twitter a lot more lately. Originally i was only on twitter to enter competitions and able to easily retrieve my news from my favourite websites and then follow jailbreakers so i can follow how far they are through IOS 6 Jailbreak but since i've got google currents for all my tech news and it's all convient and it's much more easier to use if you're looking for news. Recently i've been using twitter to talk to celebritys and they've retweeted my tweets and they've favourited stuff.
Facebook is a pile of wank, pardon my language but facebook is really crap and it's full of 12 year old that think life is shit, All i want to do to them is slap them in the face and tell them 'To fucking shut up'. it's great for communication and keeping up with your friends life but i've found that since you've got facebook, you'd don't talk to them as much because you already know what their up to.
Overall i like facebook and both websites serve a purpose for each, Since a lot more people i know are on facebook and i can easily talk to them with a click of the mouse. Not a lot of people i know don't use twitter, they might have an account but they hardly go in.
P.S I really don't like on twitter where you're restricted to 140 characters. I can say what i really want to say and if i do, i've got to do it in mulitple tweets and start speaking in text speak and it's quite annoying. I wouldn't mind if they bumped it up to 300 characters
Thanks for reading

Blackberry Playbook with 3G
This might be a little late with the blog and i have talked about it on my Youtube channel so check it out if you haven't. Same name http://www.youtube.com/techguy276
with the failure of the playbook and a lot of carriers giving it away for free with phones and blackberry based devices because there's loads that hasn't been sold. You'd think that would have learnt by now that people don't want the playbook at all, my teacher picked up one for 50 quid, not even used it and not at a car boot sale at an actual retailer. I can't remember which retailer he actually said but it was a tech shop in wigan.
well guess what RIM have done and it's the title of this blog, they're bringing out the playbook with 3G and that's just the tip of the ice berg, they are bringing out a blackberry playbook for not $100, $200, $300. They're bringing it out with a price tag of $429. Really! not a lot of people will actually buy the playbook at $200 when they could easily spend a little more money and they've got themselves a Nexus 7 or a Kindle Fire HD. Seriously! I don't think RIM know what their doing at all. They've lost their market and then delaying their chance of bringing out the most hyped Mobile Operating System of all time and that's Blackberry 10.
I'm a little bit of a spektit when it comes to Blackberry 10. I personally think that when Blackberry 10 comes out there will be a lot of people buying it like tech bloggers and then a few people in the public but ultimatly not getting enough revenue to make it worth them bringing it out. They'll bring it out and they'll bounce once and then flop right to the ground again. With the likes of Windows Phone and iOS and android, they've got no chance. Thanks for reading guys :D i'll try to update more

Blackberry 10 L series Leak
What you see above is probably Research In Motion’s upcoming all-touch BlackBerry 10, mocked up in textured perfection. The company teased a brief look at the device the other day, but this is (almost) the whole kit and kaboodle.
Unfortunately, only a picture of the back has been shared, so we’re not quite getting the entire picture of what’ll probably be RIM’s first L-Series device. The image was allegedly extracted from the company’s most recent BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha, so we aren’t going to really question its authenticity. With the BlackBerry 10 SDK going Gold, and the Jan. 30 launch of the company’s new OS looming, it’s high-time we start seeing more substantial leaks.

Updates for Android
I've done a blog in a while, and i've been meaning to but i've just not been able to find the time and plus i've really got into the audio blogs on youtube. It's www.youtube.com/techguy276 and you'll actually be able to hear my voice and my true opinions on new phones and tech news.
Get a couple of emails and questions every few weeks asking me when is the latest version of android coming out for my X phone and when will it be available to me. Well if you're running on a samsung galaxy S3 or HTC ONE X, you're going to have to wait for a bit until the latest version of android comes out for your phone. First google annouce the new OS (4.2) and the exact same day, that OS is sent to the developers and manufactuers so they can QA (quality assureance) make sure everything works and every feature that worked before, works again and espically when manufactuerers put skins on top of hte android OS, they've got to make sure that the Skin is backwards compatible with the latest OS and nothings broke. It may not sound like it takes long but it actually does, for each and every phone they've got to test the OS and make sure all the drivers work. Sometimes a phone that's a year old may not get the update because it requires a lot of man hours and money to ensure that it works. the manufactuers may not want to put all the man hours to a phone that wasn't very popular.
If you really want to be on the latest, buy a nexus Device, these devices are made by companies supervised by Google so they've got the orders and within days of 4.2 jellybean coming out the galaxy nexus got the update virtually straight away.
Thanks for reading and if you want more updates on my blogs, have a look at my youtube account and you can sit back and listen to my rants, podcasts and everything else
