Must Have Apps for your Android Phone

March 23rd, 2009

So a week ago I picked up the HTC Dream. A nice little device that is powered by Google’s Android mobile OS.

So after a week of installing and uninstalling, using and not using applications from the “Market”, I thought I’d put together my list of “Must-have-apps”.

DroidSans Tweak Tools Lite
DroidSans.com

Battery life. If you want your battery to last the day (and I mean the 8-9 hours you spend at work) you will need this app.

Key Features
- Enable Windows Animation : Windows Fading when you open any application
- Enable Transition Animation : Transition effect happen when you change the view
- Enable/Disable GPRS/EDGE connection with one click

Software for Writers

March 1st, 2008

Most writing software is only used once the hard yards, the research, the brainstorming and sleepless nights organising index cards are over. If all you need is a glorified typewriter, MS Word is fine. But if you’re like me, and you need a way to organise the random ideas in your head before you can get them onto the page, then you should try Scrivener for Mac or yWriter for PC. These are programs written for writers by writers.
