The HTC HD2 with its Excellent Hardware but Archaic Operating System   I could not help myself from being impressed with the HTC HD2. Why? Because the combination of its physical attributes is truly exceptional Almost like a smartphone for $200 and a two-year subscription from T-Mobile. But I was somehow dismayed when I discovered that it has but an obsolete OS, the Windows Mobile 6.5 which cannot be upgraded with the WinMo 7 once it's out. Stunning Design Nevertheless, the minimalist design is really exceptional. Stainless steel, soft black rubber body, very chic appearance though it's a little larger than most smartphones (4.7 x 2.6 x .4 inches). This slightly bigger built is accounted to accommodate the 480 by 800 pixel resolution in its 4.3 inches WVGA screen (responsive but sluggish on the average). Beneath the screen are five elliptical buttons (each for Power/End, Back, Windows Start, Home and Talk); at the bottom edge of the phone is the 3.5-mm headphone jack (top side is preferable) and mini-USB port. The 5 Mp camera and its LED flash are above the battery cover and the volume dial is on the left. Old Fashioned OS The outmoded Windows 6.5 OS is teamed up with HTC's unique user interface, the HTC Sense. So at certain points, the sluggishness and confusing features of the OS is not that obvious and even makes the device user-friendly as well as good to view. The Sense composed of shortcut bars at the bottom for flocking through the applications. As with the WinMo, the most advantageous trait is lock screen, missed calls and messages can be viewed without the need to unlock it. To respond, you will need to really unlock it then you are directed straight to the app. It has two browsers, IE and Opera Mobile. For YouTube videos, IE is suggested. While for swiftly searching anything on the internet, the Opera Mobile is more preferable Substantial Multimedia Elements The Windows Media Player is superb as always in track playing but on this device it appeared uninteresting. But then again the HTC Sense has a large screen that makes up for the high-quality videos that can be downloaded and watched straight from it. The camera too is impressive, just right for both indoor and outdoor shoots. Mottled Operation This phone is almost perfect but you really have to deal with the fact that it is slow to operate at certain times; it can be a good alternative for android Google Nexus One with same 1GHz Snapdragon processor.

Cyberduck: Easy FTP for Mac! Apart from being a writer, I manage the online presence of my karate organization. One of the things that needs to always be done with this job, is to update the website frequently. I use iWeb to do the design, but for some reason it doesn't always connect to our hosting server, so that I can upload the latest version of the site. Whilst doing a quick search over at Google, I discovered a great FTP client for Mac that also happens to be free. It's called Cyberduck. Cyberduck is a powerful little FTP app, and it's quite simple to use. The only limitation I've found with it is that it doesn't allow you to manage more than one account at a time, something that the more popular (and far more technically complex FileZilla does allow). I chose to use Cyberduck over FileZille simply because it's far more easier to use, and its interface is more Mac-like than FileZilla. Cyberduck is not only great for updating websites like my karate organization's, but its awesome for bloggers managing blogging software like WordPress on self-hosted servers. I've managed to use it to install plugins and themes for  my personal blog, which happens to use WordPress. The interface is pretty straight-forward. The main screen shows you a list of files (much like an iTunes library). To go into a folder on your server, simply drop-down the arrow next to a folder icon. But before you do all that, you'll need to connect to your server! This can be done by going to Open Connection, the first icon on the left. From there, you can enter information about your server, including its FTP address, username and password. Once done, Cyberduck will begin listing files. A cool feature of this application is that if an upload fails, it will alert you to it via Growl notification, and ask you whether you want to re-try the upload. You then have the option of overwiring the corrupt files on the server. All in all, Cyberduck is a great application for people wanting to update their blog's software from the back-end, or, like me, to update an entire website by exploring the files on the server. You can download Cyberduck from this link.
