How can I post to Google Plus, Twitter, and Facebook at the Same Time?
a.k.a. Why are the social networks so anti-social towards each other? a.k.a. Yet another diatribe on the dichotomy of Google. We’ve all been in this situation: we’ve got a bunch of friends on Facebook; another bunch on Twitter, and a couple on Google+ (but if you’ve still got friends using MySpace, Orkut, or AOL I’m afraid I can’t help you). Now how do you share your words…

Where is the Best Place to Host my Web App
Web Apps are apparently the future. And why not? Browsers have become full fledged virtual machines capable of running powerful Javascript applications, and HTML and CSS have both evolved to include a lot more than just text and pretty colours (visit sites like https://www.cleardigital.com/locations/web-design-chicago/ to know more about web design).

Blackberry Messenger on Android Review
Let’s cut to the chase: it’s YAMA! That’s right, I said YAMA!!! Yet Another Messenger App. I know the Fan-berries are going to get their panties in a knot because I didn’t say that it’s revolutionary or something like that. But it’s not. In fact it looks indistinguishable from Google+ Hangouts, or Twitter DM’s, or any…
