Google Video Chat on Android

Video Chat Coming to Android Phones

Google Video Chat on AndroidI just got a call, a video call that is, from one of my Google friends with an Android smartphone. The call came in over my Google Talk client built into Gmail, and at first I thought it was just a regular voice call, but when I clicked Answer, there was my friend walking along and talking.

He had of course called to rub in the fact that he (already) had an Android phone with video chat 😉 I totally took it for granted how clear the video actually was. Keep in mind that he was walking, and I could see the sky and trees behind him, yet the video was not jumpy and there were no dropouts. Color me impressed.

Interview with Stacey Hanke: Electronic Communication While Driving

Man talking on cell phone in a carI recently had the opptunity to interview Stacey Hanke — a Chicago consultant and speaker who focuses on communication — about our views and advice on using electronic communication devices while driving. This is a subject that we also feel strongly about and have written about in the past. But don’t take our word for it, read on for Stacey’s answers.

KJH: Hi Stacey – thanks for taking the time to speak with me. Well let’s get right into it. So, the thing I really wanted to focus on was your list of tips and guidance when using electronic devices while driving. You know there are a lot of people who spend a lot of time on the road for commuting, or for work. Let’s say they’re traveling salesmen, that sort of thing. And they feel really compelled to use their mobile devices, so they don’t feel they’re wasting their time driving, what do you say to that or to those people?

AT&T Finally Comes Clean – Their Network Can’t Hack It

The truth always eventually comes out, doesn’t it? Or at least finally admitted even when everyone else knows it? Specifically, in this case, it’s AT&T saying that the reason they want to buy T-Mobile is due to the simple fact that their network isn’t ready or capable of handling the crushing wave of new tablet and smartphones.

They also admit to having not been ready for the introduction of the iPhone in 2007. Yup, like we didn’t know that!

So pretty much, they’re begging the FCC/DoJ to allow the merger on the grounds that they’re more severely hamstrung than other carriers when it comes to their network capacity.

Here’s the 2-page filing if you’d like to read it.
