Whatsapp: the must have mobile messenger application!

Personally I think I'm a pretty tech savvy guy, I run a successful Internet company, use iPhone and MacBook and I manage to have actual conversations with the geeks in our office without them shaking their heads. Besides that I run a blog and did a lot of the "development" myself (ok, installing plugins isn't rocket science but I did a lot of the CSS myself) and I test just about every website that comes along in the Indonesian startup scene.

However, today I had an SMS conversation with Selina (the only CEO that manages to get me to stutter ) and in one message she said "Whatsapp?". So first I thought she was merely asking "wassup?" in Indo-english but I guess she quickly noticed my ignorance and explained about Whatsapp, thanks for that Selina!

The history of the tablet according to Motorola [video]

In 2011 Motorola will be launching their Android tablet and they're already starting some pre-launch promotion. For that they've made a somewhat funny video about the history and evolution of the tablet. Funny thing is that there are a lot of negative comments on this video on youtube like that it's not good marketing practice to bash other products/manufacturers. Actually in general I agree that promoting your own product by bashing the competitors is bad practice but on the other hand it is funny to claim that this device will make the iPad and Galaxy Tab look ancient.
