Facebook's Dreadful Designs...

I am prettttty sure 99% of you guys use Facebook here (if you don't, hit that link -- or actually, I think you should see a doctor first) -- anyway, have you ever gotten a notification that a friend has added #s of new photo to a xxxx album? Well I have, and it's a PAIN in the ASS to scroll to the bottom of the page to see all the new photos! But guess what, since we're so bright on this blog I have a perfect solution for this problem -- just sort the images by NEWEST ON TOP first!

While this is not revolutionary or anything but obviously an oversight but the designers that don't use Facebook enough (or have enough friends...), I am calling it out here first (first!).

Mark my words, it will be done within couple months once they realize it -- I mean, they should right? after all, they do this for the Facebook camera mobile app already!

Brilliant? My Rating: ★★★★★ (and a MUST!)

PS. That loooong image on the left took me 11 screenshots to stitch together, talk about labour! Never mind the need to scroll to the bottom of all that to make a comment or even like it!

Phone to Phone Charger

Alright guys, this is serious. With our smart phones getting thinner and thinner while doing even more than Apollo 13 could ever dreamed of doing -- the battery's not gonna last. Sure there are cases that beef up your battery pack, or even better, you can just bring a separate one! But let's be honest here no guy in their right mind is going to carry another thing in their pocket -- or want to put up with a case so thick it'll look make your iPhone look like it was a Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0.

So I present you with -- and phone to phone charger! HA! Just feed off friends who always has abundant juice on their cellphone because of their case / battery pack / wall charger! Brillliant! With the new 8-pin connector for iPhone being so smart, I am sure they can steal some battery power from your phone and feed it to another, no? Heck, maybe it'll even work with other cellphones so that old old BlackBerry you haven't used forever could finally be put into use again. Bring it along and you'll be saving yourself (yes I know, I said no one would bring an extra battery pack, but you're not! You're bringing an extra cellphone that could give yourself backup juice, or even as a backup phone incase you drop yours into the toilet!).

I name my great invention today: iJuice
It should be sold for $46.99 so it's cheaper than a battery case, but costs more than a chord that does nothing from Apple.

Brilliant? My Rating: ★★★★☆
