Finally... Smartphone apps meet Automakers

This has been a long awaited marriage. It must be the bureaucracy of car making, or the intricate ties with government regulations, but cellphones have been meant to merge with cars since the beginning.
How nice would it be to have your car linked instantly with the web and all the amazing potential that comes with that?
Think about this new app Carbonga... it connects into your phones diagnostics board and give you instant feedback and explanations when your car engine light turns on. Or how about Sync, an Mp3 player and voice commanded text messaging app you can use while driving?

I believe this is the obvious progression of cars. With the increase of social media's integration into mainstream life, one would wonder when will cars be next?
That time has come. Brace yourselves, the entire driving experience is about to change.

If that doesn't excite you, then check out Google's self driving automobiles. That will surely be a game shaker.





Cellphones are becoming more and more versatile and integral to our existence. Lets keep them out of landfills and push their potentials to the limit.

Femtocells increase your coverage and stop iphone congestion

Ever heard of a Femtocell? These little chips act as mini cell towers, bringing cellphone service to areas that usually have spotty, at best coverage.

They also function as additional tower strength in areas where congestion is so bad that the networks slows down to a trickle. In these instances, it is good for reducing traffic temporarily because femtocells are much cheaper than actual cell towers.

It is a strange thing, that you sometime find yourself in a busy area and you can't make a phone call. Cell carriers are slowly figuring out new ways to enhance signal strength, but I think we're still a ways off from having full coverage everywhere. I imagine the newer phones will have better antennae and be capable themselves of enhancing the signal no matter where you are. Either way, cellphones are seemingly becoming better but the service isn't.

For now, I wouldn't recommend looking into a femtocell unless you aren't getting service at your home or office but need to.
