Twitter now with image preview support for #2InstaWithLove – Indication of success?

Twitter now with image preview support for #2InstaWithLove – Indication of success?

| March 16, 2013 | 4 Replies

Something that I had wanted when the #2instawithlove campaign started was to have inline image preview for the shots shared to Twitter. Thankfully, third party clients added the support (Gravity and Twabbit getting honorable mentions). I just happened to notice that Twitter now has support for inline previews. So what this means, in case you […]

So as I told you guys yesterday, there was a new Firmware out for the Nokia Lumia 620, 820 & 920. I was naughty and got the update on my Lumia 820, to be disappointed that I didn’t have any new features (at least visibly). I then got a Store update prompt for some Nokia […]

So a friend of mine, Alvin (you may know him from Unleash The Phones), created a Hitler video (you know the one with Hitler rambling and the funny subtitles?). The video simply outlines some insane bugs that occur in Xbox Music on WP8, which seems to be caused by the WP companion app on Windows. […]

New Nokia Lumia 620, 820 & 920 Firmwares live on Navifirm

| March 15, 2013 | 17 Replies

I just hit post about the new firmwares out for the Lumia 620, 820 & 920, and decided to check if Navifirm had anything. It seems like it does. All the devices have multiple (I think all) variants of the firmware update available. Either this means the roll out is sooner than we think, or […]

I just noticed a tweet coming from Nokia Developer with regards to some updates for the Lumia 620, 820 & 920. It appears that the devices are being shipped with updated firmwares to what is currently available. (This makes sense as we have seen some new features demoed on new handsets).

Ali showed us the 3D printed My Nokia Blog shell Nokia Connects gave him at MWC. They also made me my own. Anyway, the coolest one by far is the one below, owned by@Psychomania666. I think what I find the coolest about this is the fact that the buttons are yellow! Obviously the only thing better […]

My Top 5 Instagram Alternatives for your Nokia Lumia

| March 6, 2013 | 12 Replies

Today seems to be all about Instagram. The photo that sparked it all was a WP8 Start Screen with an Instagram tile. I think its just simply using an app called Instagram tweets. (See how I mimicked it above – Editing via Fhotoroom) I’m not saying Windows Phone doesn’t need Instagram. I think it does, […]
