The Learning Curve had begun!
Well, It’s official. I have gotten rid of my Dell Latitude 610, and replaced it with a MacBook pro. Still running xp thru boot camp or VMFusion. Trying to find similar applications is a pain. I went ahead and got 0ffice 2008. Word and Excel work well, but Entourage is NOT Outlook. Trying to sync my Tilt has not been very successful. I purchased “the missing sync”, but, the way the data transfers isn’t the same. Also, for Blogging, I haven’t found something that compares to Windows LiveWriter. Wish that they would develop LiveWriter for mac. So, I’ll be experimenting with MarsEdit, MacJournal, and of course, ScribeFire. Just have to keep plugging along!

Blogging to go : MoBlog (as posted on Just Another Mobile Monday)
In a previous article, I wrote about LiveJournal, and LJ Mobile. But not everyone has (or wants) a LJ Blog. Some people are happy with WordPress, Blogger, or Live Spaces. So, thanks to Sampath Dassanayake (Web site), there is a (FREE) mobile alternative for the above 3 blogging platforms.
From the developer’s web site:
moBlog is a .NET Compact Framework (.NETCF) 2.0 dependent application. Hence you will need to have .NETCF 2.0, which is a free download from Microsoft installed on your device. It will work on any Windows Mobile 2003 / Windows Mobile 5.0 (WM5) / Windows Mobile 6.0 (WM6) devices.
MoBlog supports both WM Professional (Touch screen), and Standard (Non-touch screen).
Does your device have what it takes? Sound interesting? See you on the next page.
