I'm looking at doing a stress test on the Nexus one with latitude and to help promote BUZZ even more in the development world. I simply have always wanted to add as many people as I could and I figured they're are others out there so with all that said, if you're ballsy enough post up your email for latitude.
If you would like to add me mine is dahui9_at_gmail_dot_com.
(for the sake of bots I have edited my emails layout) Let's see what you have boys and girls and "I am not responsible for anyone" that post anything or follows me.

i have not looked much into buzz, care to give me a reader's digest run down on what exactly it is? all that i really know is that its some form of social networking integrated with google maps?

All in all it is a break down of whats going on around you. say you're at a resturant and you really enjoy it and want to get the word out. BUZZ about it, and when you do you can take a picture to show people where it is and it geotags the location. its as simple as that! Its up to the community to report what's going on and what they think about certain subjects.
Example..
I went to the mall today and it was really busy
"02/23/2010 tThe mall was really busy today stand clear unless you specifically need to come"
It then geotags the location you are at.
-Charlie
sounds cool but i still think some people may have insecurities about their anonymousness, ie dont like people knowing where they actually are in the world... most people like hiding behind their device or computer screen
You could always hide your location to the person who invites you.
I agree with you but this is an open invatation for all those who see no risk in showing where they are. You can always turn sharing off thats the best part about latitude.
Example again.
My Girlfriend, to lazy to turn gps on so I can actually find her when she is lost in the middle of nowhere.
2 requests so far and both accepted (Don't forget to BUZZ about locations you find)
see you all tomorrow I need some sleep...

Any UK buzzers?
I am 'my xda username' at gmail dot com
ahh long night last night, I thought I would check and see where we are at. It would be fun to get this news worthy haha.
I just added the both of you to mine I'm just waiting for response
-Charlie
I've been Buzzing off and on a little since it started. There are only a few others around me that do it too, all of them on Iphones, found ONE guy on a nexus. I don't have any friends with Android, so no one on my latitude list. I'm considering doing this...
Got your invite. cool.

Hello everyone,
I made this post to hopefully help people with Instant Messenger and finding a great one for their use.
I have used Agile, IM+ and I am now using Verichat which used to be a palm aplication but has now been converted for pocket pc use.
It his by far superior to IM+ and Agile in fontionality I think
Imov I really dont like the interface.
So yes I think Verichat is the best for Pocket PC use.
The only problem is that it's not free!
Which one is your favorite and why ?
I am using IM+ and am very happy with it; it supports MSN, Yahoo!, AIM, ICQ, Google and Jabber. I haven't used all the background modes, but for chatting, it works great; easy to manage the various windows; and can view contacts by group (integrated across services). I haven't tried Agile, though I used Verichat on the Palm before -- My understanding is that Verichat connects to a Verichat service rather than directly to the IM services. I quickly removed the T-Mobile OZ client from my device ;-)
Would like to hear the pros and cons of Agile vs. IM+ for comparison, if someone has used both.

Whatever gives you a laugh I guess, a good ole' personal attack is always the best route to go whenever you are faced with ugly facts. Good message boards can be ruined by crack requests. Developers no longer wish to lend their talents to the boards, board admins can get in trouble (Depending on where the server is located), Web Hosts / Co-Lo's can butt in, etc... Anyway, this thread has gotten off topic way too much, so this will be my last post in this one. Flame me if you want, but I'm not listening
It wasn't a personal attack. I was just stating popular opinion.
Umm, back to the topic. I like agile, but it has issues with my Wizard. It doesn't work well in landscape mode and it locks up my phone frequently. I like the fact that all my buddies on the different services show up on 1 buddy list.
I tried Verichat trial the other day, but it didn't display my side of the IM. That is unacceptable.
I also used OZ messenger for T-Mobile. It has a neat interface, but it uses SMS to send and receive.
I haven't tested IM+ yet.
OK guys yes bakc on topic. I removed the line that bothered all of you.
Any other suggestions ?
Thank you

I don't understand this ??? I see my side of the IM after I hit <enter>. It's displayed in red. There is a short delay before it appears tho...
Yeah, I think that is an issue with your verichat install. Mine works fine. I had IM+, but liked verichat a bit more for some reason. Seemed a bit more polished to me.
Plus, I like having access to the Verichat Bots to get info if Edge/GPRS isn't working.
which of these let u click a phone number or webpage to view like on the sidekick
ok, let me re-download and install. I tried their WM5 trial download.
ok i guess no1 wants 2 answer a ? for me ive used agile and really hated getting knocked off-line all the time by the way does any1 know of a program to let me recieve an im and click the link that was sent to view

Agile Messenger for WM5 has been released in build alpha....

download and install and report your bugs!
oh and btw....IM+ sucks! it's no better than AgileMessenger......and the reason why it sucks is because it costs $40!! I mean c'mon 40$ to IM...that's just wrong! Max I'm willing to pay for a PPC app for IM'ng is 9.99 and it better be worth it damn it! (and the 9.99 better be a one-time fee....sure if they upgrade from version 2 to version 6 I don't mind paying an upgrade fee of 4.99....but yeah....that's where i stop)
hi folks, i recently found this application 'Point UI'. You may find some other threads for this, as well. It provides kindda iPhone interface to windows mobile. I ain't crazy for Apple iPhone user interface and themes, but i am sure, there are some people who would definitely appreciate a change.
This software, i have tried on WM5/WM6, works perfectly on them. People usin' WM2/WM3, can try at their own risk and lemme know the compatibility. It is not exactly iPhone interface, but the basic Slide and Touch Navigation works perfectly fine without any hassles. On top of that, people like me, usin' windows mobile with the same good old interface would surely enjoy this change.
And sorry, for not being able to post this application here. Some account related issue, is there. That's why i am posting it on rapidshare. You can PM me, if you face any difficulty in downloadin' i'll e-mail it to you.
Adieu..

a phone!
yes, not only a phone, its an ipod too!
if thats not enough wait until you hear this:
it has an internetbrowser BUILT IN!!
unbelievable!
and yu know what they call it?
i was so impressed by the quality of the name! it is so obvious! why having names like htc touch or htc wizard, there is no way telling a htc wizard is a phone:s, well you know what apple did? well its...it is:
IPHONE
everyone should take an example of apple!
haha lol
stop making fun of him..MODS please delete this post..being senior members i didnt expect this from u guyz
It is NOT an IPhone interface as well.
duuh thats why pointui is so revolutionary, becuz i didnt wanted to make an iphone look a like hehe
I agree, give him a break guys...he is just trying to be informative
Credit to those who share good news....even when its old.

I think you could stay more polite here! Do you want to go through 500+ pages to find a post when you are looking for it then go on supporting double posting! In my opinion this is kind of double posting beacuse everywhere in this forum posts concerning PointUI are popping up and on each page you'll find the string 'PointUI' at least one time!
Yes, not all of us breathe PPC Tech, but like I said everyone will notice that this app is already known when entering this forum.
Have a nice day, vi

I thought I'd put your statement to the test! On entering this forum, there is only this thread which mentions PointUI, therefore unless one is used to the ways of how forums work and this one in particular, only a search would have revealed what you are saying.
Sometimes people come across things in different places and believing they have found something amazing, they just rush over to xda devs to share the good news.
More experienced ones are more inclined to do an internal search first.
Whilst I agree that you are right about being more polite here...apologies to anyone offended, you might take some time out to remember what it's like to be a newbie at something or less experienced than someone else.
Someone makes an innocent mistake by 'who's standards?' but it is very helpful to others who happen to be browsing.
Anyway nuff said. I'll keep quite for now, but if anyone ever flames me like that, I'm sure to speak up.
Have a nice day.

Bump
This is pretty cool +1
Maybe we could integrate it into s2u2 or as a screen saver?
How the f***??? That's the perfect app for locking our screen!!!
u got my donation for this one
Wow! Can confirm this is completely SFW as opposed to a previous suggestion.
wow this is very cool.
No developer interested in this challenge ??
It's a stupid app that serves no purpose. Kind of like 90% of the IPhone apps on the market... No wonder none of us want anything to do with this crap
hahaha... imagine unlocking by this method when you want to do something fast (check what's the time, write a SMS message, check timetables, etc.)...
It would be like that:
Actual action - 1 minute
Unlocking - about three
And don't forget Diamond has no multitouch so you would have to do it with single finger. Have fun

This looks pretty cool and I'd like to see this on my Diamond, that's for sure...
I just find it funny that some user noobs (members and under) like myself try and stand up to NRGZ and Sergio whom both have published many apps which i currently have, and use on my phone. I side with them, they are spending their time programing way better programs for our abuse, not wasting their time for a trivial screen lock when theres a handful of locking applications out there.
just my two penneth!

Well, you know what:
Those "very superb developers" that love to do IMPORTANT things, can do so...
But I guess, either they have a lot of time to spend (and they have already finished whatever they've been working on) or lack the skills/knowledge/etc (whatever, I dunno, I'm not a programmer/developer), so that they can come and comment very non-creatively on something that they don't value. But, it would be better if they just didn't post their negative ideas... Those, really don't help. If someone doesn't want to spend his time on it, then he wouldn't. That includes posting comments only with nonsense/crap/BS... (It would be helpful to hear professional opinions on why that wouldn't work/be coded, though)
Short version: If you push that reply button with an undeniable urge to comment on something, wait on it, it will pass. If you have something to say, it would be more than welcome. That's my motto. (I'm saying this here, because I'm sick of all the negative approach I've seen on this site... Wow, enough for moon!)
And, I would love to see that kind of app on my Diamond too.
PS: iBoobs was the same. Every guy that
a) lacked the skills to code it
b) thought he knew all better than everyone
c) just thought/felt different
d) was pretending to be a very hard business-man
shunned it, declared it was nonsense...
Eventually, hdWobble was released, and it's by far one of the most exciting apps I'd have on my Diamond.
okay for the past 20 mins ive been on twitter as a detective haha. so far drizzy deleted his followers and following, i went on haykuros twitter and

No kidding.
I'm not following... can someone give me the cliff's notes of what happened?
who knows he might be on here with a new name if this stuff about his gamertag "harddaez" is true
It appears Drizz was HardDaez, who jacked the orginal Hero rom from Haykuro(aka the reason Haykuro left the game) because Haykuro's source as HTC was fired over it(allegedly) because it was still watermarked. Drizz's location on Twitter is set to Aurora which is where HardDaez was from so it very possibly could be him, or it could all just be some huge juke move. Until one of them says something official, I have no idea. Never thought I'd see a reality show start on XDA though that's for sure haha.
Just googled HeartBreakDrake HardDaez and came up with :
HeartBreakDrake: gears 2 now everyone "my gamertag is HardDaez"
10:50 PM Sep 13th from web
on his Twitter so it appears he did actually say that was his gamertag, which was linked to the real HardDaez before the name Drizzy Drake ever came around. So as of right now if this was mythbusters I'd have to go with Probable. If anyone still doesn't know what's going on or really cares that much I still have the original Haykuro vs. HardDaez docs.
Hmm, I have always suspected some ROM releaser to be behind this. Not the ones I deal with but someone lol. If it happens to be Drizzy, I am not surprised.
I came to the scene when most of the dust had already settled and people where moving on, and releasing bigger and greater things. I have always noticed something peculiar about the way Drizzy would get into some kind of quarrel with someone, then it would be a love fest for him, then again with a quarrel, then a Drizzy tribute. Its kind of interesting.
I probably don't know much of the whole situation but that's what I have noticed.

pluses: NO GAMES, whoriscopes i mean horoscopes, and or crappy as question things. i like how i can post a thing for my friends or my work colleagues which includes my boss (i work in an IT dept so we are all nerds and wanted it) with out sharing to much or what ever. honestly im just glad its not facebook i had been only keeping for the point to keep in contact with people that have moved away and inviting them to google was easy
cons: ummm invite only? ha jk its blown up as is so im happy. I feel as if i am selling my soul to google but if thats true i have done that awhile ago so too late now
the only thing really i think that needs to be added is that we need a way for events and functions to be added to google calender or something. like facebook (i know i hate it but it works)

pluses: NO GAMES, whoriscopes i mean horoscopes, and or crappy as question things. i like how i can post a thing for my friends or my work colleagues which includes my boss (i work in an IT dept so we are all nerds and wanted it) with out sharing to much or what ever. honestly im just glad its not facebook i had been only keeping for the point to keep in contact with people that have moved away and inviting them to google was easy
cons: ummm invite only? ha jk its blown up as is so im happy. I feel as if i am selling my soul to google but if thats true i have done that awhile ago so too late now
the only thing really i think that needs to be added is that we need a way for events and functions to be added to google calender or something. like facebook (i know i hate it but it works)

I totally agree, with the selling your soul to Google. If Goog made it, I will pretty much be inclined to like it. I guess, I'm a Goog FanBoy? Ant-Apple as well.
Also, can't agree with you more on Google+, it's got a little bit of a learning curve. Mainly because we are all creatures of habit, and there are a few differences from FaceBook, but overally am liking it more and more. Also, worthy of mention is the fact that their Adnroid App, is WAY better hands-down, than FaceBooks.
I am Pro-Simplicity when it comes to the web, and Google is the epitamy of simplistic design. Plus, I was getting totally annoyed with all those stupid Farmville request. Especially when I see a pop-up from a friend that says "I need Help" in the title. So you automatically think, oh, I should look at that right away. Only to find out, your supposed friend was playing some bakery/store game and is asking you to give them some flour or something. Lame.
So far it's been really great. Much simpler interface than FB, more web 2.0 if you will...
I'm hoping a LOT of people get on board and give FB a run for their money. I don't hate FB, but it's pretty clear there needs to be SOME competition to the Zuckerburg juggernaut.

You actually only have to deal with that once. You can hide all posts regarding any app or game and you don't have to deal with that rubbish again.
i would have to agree with what i am reading i just wanted to hear some other peoples thoughts... lots of pros and i have yet to really find a con other then i am wanting more people to jump on board so i can see where the app will lead!!! LOVE THE SIMPLICITY and the fact that.... well.... everything seems to work unlike facebook!!!! its social network at its finest without all the crap from what i have seen!!!!...... and actually i think Google already owns our android loving souls at this point, I'm sure its in the fine print somewhere....lol

To keep your soul from wanting hell today, I will also send a couple of invites to anybody that Pm me their gmail account. I will not be a snappy/fast thing. But I will check it atleast once a day ok.
Back to topic, the resounding answer to your question is a YES! I Like it! It's a social network that got it right and its not Facebook!
Simple Elegant UI and I love the auto upload of photos shot on your phone from the app, its a nice way to bacup automatically to the cloud.
In the app also, the "nearby" tab on the stream is golden if you ask me, it allows you to see peoples public post around the location in which you are at the moment, allowing you to get in the conversation with new people and knowing is somebody close by and might be somebody that you already seen around or something.
It's Golden!
