"Agreed. There are folks that are working on hacking it onto other phones though. It's possible to do, since it is open source. I'm looking forward to a release that is actually usable on the HTC Touch Pro. Check this out: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index......" - GeekLad

Why Google Chrome OS Will Have No Huge Impact - http://www.ghacks.net/2009...
"I agree that the Chrome OS won’t exactly be a Windows killer (initially, anyways). Besides, Microsoft is already working on Windows Cloud. Apple’s OS X has yet to kill Windows and I doubt that Chrome OS will have much more success. However, Google does have one advantage over Apple in trying to kill Windows. The OS won’t be attached to a very expensive (albeit pretty) and glorified PC. It will definitely be fast and it could potentially take a lot of netbook share, especially since they won’t have the Microsoft tax attached. Of course there will be a Google tax, but it will probably be considerably lower. As for gaming fitting into the equation… I don’t know that really will have that much impact. The PC gaming market has been steadily losing market share to consoles and I think that trend is going to continue." - GeekLad

"Well, they're already working on Android for cell phones. The article on the official Google blog mentioned that Android will continue to be a separate project and that Chrome OS is really intended more for PCs (desktops, notebooks, and netbooks included)." - GeekLad

Re: Make Free Phone Calls Anywhere in the USA with Google Voice, Gizmo, and Asterisk - http://geeklad.com/make-fr...
"It seems that calls can no longer be made from Gizmo to Google Voice via SIP. To port your old VOIP number, you will need to get another telephone service provider. Unfortunately, that means there is not really any way to move your number somewhere else for free (that I know of). If you have an unlocked VOIP router (one that lets you use any VOIP provider), you could at least use GV and Gizmo to receive calls. Just use your Gizmo credentials on the router and set up GV to forward calls to Gizmo. To make outbound calls, you would still have to use a computer to log into GV to set up the call through Gizmo." - GeekLad

Re: Build Your Own Amazon Niche Store - http://geeklad.com/build-y...
"Thank you taking the time to share your concerns and suggestions, I do appreciate them. First let me address the issues you mentioned regarding the Tarzan and Amazon terms and conditions. I do not believe that Tarzan requires any link love or even mention of its use, but I felt compelled to do so. Without the Tarzan library, it would have taken a bit more work for me to develop my own library for communicating with the Amazon API. The code probably would not have been as efficient without it either. Now that you mention it, there is currently no mention in this post that I used Tarzan to develop the plugin. I will be sure to update it accordingly. Of course one could make the argument it is much easier to share link love when it someone else's link love you are sharing, and I wouldn't dare dispute that. However, I decided that if I was going to share your link love with my site, it would only be fair to share some with Tarzan as well since it also played a part in the development of..." - GeekLad
Re: More Simple and Easy SEO to Increase Your Pagerank - http://geeklad.com/more-si...
"If you don't know how to program WordPress plugins or plugins for other blogging platforms, if you know basic HTML you can provide HTML code to others to display a badge on their site to promote yours. Perhaps just a simple image link with your logo. Just be sure to provide some relevant text for the link. That is always worth a shot. Another method you can try is to seek blogs that do not use the nofollow tag in the comments. If you use Firefox as your browser, you can try the NoDoFollow addon to quickly determine if a blog is using the nofollow tag. If you use the NoDoFollow addon and you see comment author links highlighted red, it means they are nofollow. That means they will not help you get precious backlinks that will help you with the search engines. Otherwise, you will have to view the HTML code and check the comment links to see if they are nofollow links. Unfortunately, blogs that do not use nofollow tags tend to be few and far between, but there are some out there. One..." - GeekLad

"The store is generated on my server. All the parameters for the store display are passed from the plugin to my server. My server queries the Amazon Product Advertising API to retrieve the information according to the parameters passed to it, passes the store contents back to the plugin, and the store is displayed. You can actually see what the outputted HTML looks like if you visit a URL that will generate a store. For example: http://geeklad.com/tools......" - GeekLad

"I've already openly discussed using backlinks in widgets as an SEO strategy: http://geeklad.com/more-si...... It's not a big secret and I doubt if I'll get sandboxed. There are plenty of other sites out there that do it, many of them with simple HTML.

Re: Build Your Own Amazon Niche Store - http://geeklad.com/build-y...
"You can disable the Amazon logo by using the parameter logo="none". The "Amazon and Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates" line must stay in order to remain in compliance with Amazon's affiliate program terms of service. I used the Tarzan Amazon API library in order to develop the plugin and they deserve credit for the good work they do. The Amazon Niche Store line is there for SEO purposes for my plugin. I'm sorry to hear you are displeased with these conditions, but I have stated them very clearly. If you don't like them then don't use it." - GeekLad
