A New Android Cell-Phone

I'm creating this note on my Samsung Galaxy S2. It's a great little cell-phone with a fast processor, lots of storage, and a fantastic display. I purchased it from Amazon, and thanks to the best feature of cell-phone provider T-Mobile, SIM Cards, all I needed to do was transfer the card from my Charm to the SGS2.

Google+

Thanks to a kind invitation from my Facebook friend Christopher Harris, I had a wonderful opportunity to play around with Google's new service (currently in beta I believe) called Google+. It is similar to Facebook with hopefully a few nice additional capabilities. So far so good! :)

Emacs

I've worked with Linux for more than a decade but never really settled on a favourite editor. I've worked with vi, nedit, gedit, and even wrote my own (running under zForth for Linux) but now I've settled on Emacs. I like the power and extensibility of Emacs and after giving it a trial period of at least one month, it has become my preferred editor/environment.
