From now on i’m going to write(post) something every few days or at least once a week.

First of all I will not be touching on all of the points raised at the iPhone 4.0 Keynote.       I think that this update (4.0) is really good as it bring a lot of good features to the iphone that were rumored.

Multitasking: This is a great feature that a lot of people expected. It allows users to use many applications at the same time (hence it’s name) To access this feature all you have to do is double tap the home button this will bring up a little row which, you can slide to the side to move to another list of the applications that you have open.This is useful when you are get skype calls whilst in another application.It also lets user listen to music using Pandora on other apps whilst in another application. I think that this is a great feature which will be very useful in the future.

Home Screen Changes: On the home screen now you can change the background this will also work on the lock screen there is a few wallpapers built in.

App organization: Now on the home screen you can group your applications in to folder to do so just hold down on an app an then all of the apps will start to giggle (move) around you just drag applications on top of each other it will automatically name the folder of applications according to what genre they are in.

These are just so of the many features of iphone 4.0, which is available for developers on Beta now and will be available for Everyone else in the summer it will work on the newer versions of the iphone and ipod touch and will be available for the ipad in the fall.    

I know i should have posted this before my previous post but this was work in progress.

I decided to write this blog as a companion to my youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/moloney95  and to my twitter: http://twitter.com/moloney95 (by the way please subscribe to me on youtube and follow me on twitter) This is just another way for me to outlet my thoughts on the technology world and products that I own and want to purchase in the future.

Although I don’t have this External Hard Drive for long I’m still going to review it.

Overview & Reason for Purchase: This hard drive is formatted to Mac so I didn’t need to format it myself.It’s a 320gb external hard drive (this is double the amount of memory on my (White Macbook). I am mainly going to use this Drive for time Machine backups. In the box along with the 320gb western digital hard drive you get a Usb cord to connect to your computer. The cord is not very long which could be considered as a good or bad thing. 

Design: The design of this product is excellent on the top and bottom of the hard drive there is a Mat black/navy plastic and a small Western Digital logo on top, on the sides of the passport drive there is a shiny silver finish, on the bottom there is four rubber feet to stop the hard drive from moving, when it’s on a table. The only connection slot is a mini usb socket on the side.Another great feature is there is no need to plug this hard drive in.It’s slim and light weight, you could put this hard drive in your pocket if you needed to but i don’t see the need to do this.

I would highly recommend buy this Western Digital Passport External Hard Drive and therefore I would  give it a 5/5.
