Texting Changing Communication Conversation

The average 13 to 17 year sends and receives over 100 text messages a day. A recent PEW study has found that in general people who text (often the youngsters) prefer to text over making a phone call. It does save people time for example, rather than having to make a phone call where you could diverge into small talk when all you want to say is that you will be at the meeting. Yet, the study also says that because texting is so simple and convenient people tend to do it often in their spare time, when they could otherwise be basking in quiet reflection. Understanding the pervasiveness of texting in our young culture, it makes me wonder how texting is or could be changing the global business world, education, and citizenship.

Sad News...Drop.io Removed Voice Recording Feature, but There Are Some Good Alternatives!

I was incredibly sad to read that as of Oct 1st, Drop.io has removed all voice recording on their site. Drop.io was by far my favorite site for easy podcasting, video and image storing and that has now come to an end. However, I would like to pose some nice FREE alternatives to Drop.io below:

Google Voice

I am a big fan of Google Voice for their recording feature. First when you create an account, you can get a local area code number (so that students could call from a land line). In addition you can set up the number so it goes right to a unique greeting in voicemail. All the messages are stored in a private space on Google Voice as MP3 files.

iPadio
This is a free podcasting site and can be used internationally. The phone number is not toll-free but you can use cell phones. The bad news is that you have to register your cell phone number so you can only use a couple different numbers at a time to connect with the site.

Yodio
This a free audio recording/podcasting site. Your phone does not have to be registered with the site to use the site (which is nice) and you can create one teacher account for all the student's to record into.

Tumblr
The Tumblr blog allows anyone to post images, video, text and audio directly from their basic cell phone to a Tumblr blog. The only thing I don't like is that I can only have one phone number associated with the blog at a time.

Geograffiti
Leave an audio voicemark from you cell phone in a specific location on a Google map.

Google Map Mashup
Post audio from a cell phone on a specific location on a Google map.

UhaveAudio
You can record up to 60 seconds at a time with the phone to web recorder and it is a toll free number.

Cinchcast
You do not have to be registered with the site to make a podcast. You simply call in to the Cinchcast number and record your podcast that is then posted to a space in Cinchcast.

Phonecasting
Once you create an account, you can use a phone (any phone) to call in and make a podcast. The podcasts are housed on the Phonecasting site but do have ways to post on other sites or download the files.

Find Cell Phone Owner Without Any Hassles

It is unfortunate that there are millions of people who do not know how to find cell phone owner. They thought that there is no way to do this because there is no public directory for such things. Although they are really not readily accessible, this does not mean that they are entirely restricted. With the right resources, there is still a way so that you can trace a particular call.

It is actually very easy to find cell phone owner if you have an internet connection. With this, the only thing that you will have to do is to search for a dependable site that has a reverse look up tool. Fortunately, there are hundreds of these that you can choose from. The only problem is that not all of them are as effective as they claim to be.

It is then necessary for you to be decisive in choosing the right site. To do so, you have to stay away from any kind of free services. If you want to find cell phone owner, this is something that you should always avoid. In several instances, they are actually very troublesome and incapable. If you are unlucky, you have already browsed through the entire site and you have not yet accessed the tool.

And worse, they are also very dangerous to use. As you already know, most of these free portals are very vulnerable to internet troubles. For one second, you are already exposed to tons of errors, virus, and spyware.

These are the main reasons why it is much better if you are going to look for a fee-based reverse look up tool. This kind of service is actually very dependable because their databases are extensive and comprehensive. Some of the information that they can provide you includes the name, address, date of birth, civil status, and a whole lot more.

They are also much more dependable because you can expect that they have covered the entire country. Even those who have just got a connection are surely enlisted.

The only problem is that they are not that cheap. But if you really want to find cell phone owner, then you must realize that this should not be your top concern.

It is just fortunate that some of them offer some discount privileges. So if you want to find cell phone owner, this is something that you might want to try out.


Start your reverse phone number lookup immediately to discover everything you need. Also, read another of popular article on reverse cell phone lookup.

Android IM apps: which one should you use?

I'm a big fan of instant messaging apps. They're fun and easy plus, like Google Voice, they're sometimes a money-saving alternative to texting via your mobile number. Living on the west coast, they're one way I keep in touch with my east coast family, especially my busy brother and my mom, who loves her iPad's expandable, easy-on-the-eyes fonts. Plus, I sometimes ping Ars' staff on their IM
