Time to Vblog!

So for my birthday in July, being the Gadget Geek I am, got the new 3Gs iPhone. Now to be honest, I don't see a major difference BUT the only reason I was super excited was because this one had video!! You see this would translate into VBlogging heaven for a mom. So, I started filming my little ones daily life. Before you know it my phone memory is filling up because of course I want to film them waking up, eating, in the potty, breathing and thinking. I decided to search the web looking for a place where I can post them and get them off my phone (because of course I need to make more room for pointless video). After extensive research my best choice was Posterous. You can post almost anything on Posterous, pictures, video and MP3s. So simple you can even post by emailing it. You can also password protect these sites to keep them private. This is the perfect format for the newbie blogger.

Posterous rocks!

P.S. They now have an iPhone app!

ChicMom wants to Win!

Back in January I blogged about this very Chic find : http://strollersandstilettos.blogspot.com/2009/01/fashion-geeks-dream.html . Now I actually have a chance of winning it thanks to http://blissfullydomestic.com/blissful-style/giveaway-hp-mini-vivienne-tam-edition-from-intel/ . I was kinda hoping to get it for Valentines day but hubby didn't get the subtle hints I left already the house, including printing it out and leaving it on my fridge and bathroom.

Wish me luck guys, this would make ChicMom very happy!!

#FollowFriday..what an interesting phenomenon

It happens every Friday, the hashtag before the Follow Friday. It took my awhile to understand how this works but now I know how amazing it is. This morning woke up not really feeling as perky as usual. Must tell you Twitter and my Tweeple always manage to put a smile on my face. I am inspired by so many people, that 140 characters are just not enough. Like many I don't follow a certain industry, or like. I follow anyone who is interesting; and anyone one who stimulates my mind and heart. I am guilty of following some of my favorite celebrities but I must admit they aren't as interesting as the real people on Twitter.

It is was upto me, my status would read #followfriday: EVERYONE!!!

Thanks Twitterworld, I think you are spectacular!!

My Iphone becoming my Beauty advisor

Ok HP, you're making me smile again. So, I'm reading my February issue of O (O for Oprah Magazine my BFF in my head), and came across an article called A Mobile Makeup Matcher. Apparently, HP has created a technology that is allowing you to simply take a snapshot of yourself with your mobile phone (for me that would be iPhone of course), send it to a virtual beauty adviser and waahhlaa you get a text message back with your best foundation shade. As per the HP website, the system locates the person's face within the image and color-corrects the image for camera and lighting discrepancies.

Seriously, is technology just getting better and better for us beauty buffs?

Next, can you turn my iPhone into a flat iron?
