Orange, Blogging and CityRail
Once again, I found myself the victim of the never-ending CityRail trackwork. At the peak of my anger, I wanted to blog out my frustrations. So I whipped out my new phone and tried to use WAP to log on to my bBlog admin area to post an entry. After 2 guesses of the URL and 3 wrong password attempts, I finally got in. All these took an unbearably long time, mind you. After all that, I realized that I just couldn’t submit the post due to some URL error, there goes the text I so painstakingly entered using the numeric keypad (the “smart” input method on the LG phone didn’t help either).
Speaking of phone and WAP, after using the Nokia 3210 for about 5 years, Tiff & I decided to sign up for Orange and get a new handset each for a shared bill of $45 a month on a 2 years contract. As part of the offer, we get to call each other for five minutes free all day long.
