Video Review of Facebook Application for Palm Treo

Millions of people use Facebook. A majority of these users are unable to sit in front of their computer all day reading friend updates, wall posts, and to poke or be poked. Sure, in college, I had nothing better to do (homework, study, go to class) than sit in front of my computer. With mobility in mind, Facebook has launched a number of mobile Facebook applications.

From any cell phone browser, you can go to m.facebook.com and pull up a mobile version of the social networking website.

You can upload pictures and video from your cellphone by sending a multimedia message (MMS) to mobile@facebook.com.

In the video below, we review the Facebook application that was designed for the Palm Treo 680, 755p, and the Centro. Facebook is accessed using the internet connection through a program instead of the web browser.

To download it directly to your compatible Palm device, use the phone’s browser to go to http://mobile.palm.com/facebook. The installation process is also covered in the video.

Standard Cellphone Voicemail Not Cutting It? Here’s a Better Way.

If you are heavy cell phone user like I am, you have probably been frustrated by the lack of features with your cell phone provider’s voicemail service. If you are using basic voicemail, greetings are limited to under 30 seconds. Your mailbox can only hold 20 messages and they can can only be kept for 14 days. Many carriers provide an enhanced voicemail service for a monthly fee and you get a little more capacity and longer message length.

YouMail is a great free alternative for voicemail on your cell phone. I tested it out and overall it works very well. Read on for pros and cons, instructions for setup, and other features.
