For today's daily swong we're going to have a Swonglet. In case you missed the previous post:
What do you get when you post the Chicklet’s words of wisdom on upswong.com? Swonglets of course! The Chicklet is very wise.
Swonglet #1:
One small act of kindness can create great and lasting pleasure.
Now obviously I don't want to corny things up too much around here but the UpSwong admin gave me clearance to share some knowledge with you guys and gals. So put down your BlackBerries...

For today's daily swong I'm going to begin elaborating on the origins of upSWONG. First let's begin by defining an upswing.
up-swing
1. an upward swing or trend
2. a big increase, improvement or advancement
When asked what makes an upSWONG different than an upswing, semi-pro online poker player and backer Craig Smith replied, “Hmmmmm…it’s just better. I mean, it’s a swong.”...

Stella and I have become quite serious about our daily walking regimen. We crush a fast pace for about 30 minutes daily and we're both in pretty damn good shape from it. But winter is coming up and what's poor Stella to do? Behold... the Snuggie for dogs...

I'm a huge fan of TweetDeck for Twittering from my laptop and netbook. I love everything about it ...the columns, the built in URL shortener, the custom colors, the ability to handle multiple accounts, the whole interface, even the Facebook integration when I decide that Facebook doesn't drive me insane. I always think to myself how much I wish I could have TweetDeck on my Storm. Well I can't but guess where I can have it? Yea, you got it...there's a fricken TweetDeck app for the iPhone and iPod...

As a BlackBerry girl at heart it's always hard for me to admit when the iPhone wins in any way. I can almost always find some way to downplay even the most obviously superior features because it's become second nature for me to always believe my BlackBerry crushes all other devices of it's kind. But unfortunately I must admit, as far as WordPress is concerned iPhone > BlackBerry. *sigh*. I don't even want to talk about all the reasons why as it would be too painful...it just is.

I have a few Twitter accounts but I don't use them much except to tweet new blog entries whenever I write an article for a site. I follow tons of people, but I rarely read their entries because...well...I really don't care that "they're driving around the parking lot at Walmart trying to find a spot" or "having a touch of heart burn after a slice of pizza" lol.
But today I experienced some of the best of Twitter. It's been a while since I've had a Twitter client on my BlackBerry and I kno...

The Daily Swong…BlackBerry vs. iPhone WordPress app Showdown

Posted September 11th, 2009 at 6:48 pm
Posting from my BlackBerry Storm this time. When I go to add a picture I'm not taken to the gallery, just my file directory.
Round #1 Winner - iPhone
Hopefully the Storm can regain the lead in the upcoming rounds. It's a very savvy device... But how will it hold up in the swimsuit round?...
