I Wish I Was Wearing Google Glass Today

Published under Mango Paper, Jul 4, 2014

I tried Google Glass before, but couldn’t think of a good use case for me to actually buy one.

I thought maybe I would wait until I have kids, since I have heard a lot of times that people enjoy having a Glass while spending time with their kids.

But today, for the first time ever, I wish I had a Google Glass, so badly.

I was cycling in the bay area, mostly along the Bay Trail today. It is an absolutely beautiful ride.

During the ride, I stopped several times, to take pictures, either with my phone or my SLR (for different kind of pictures). That is the great part.

The bad part is, there were many many more times that I wish I could also take pictures, especially take pictures of what I see. Or sometimes better, videos of what I see.

Then I said, “Wish I had a Google Glass.”

I admit I won’t buy it yet, because the value and price ratio is still too low for me. But, I’m looking forward to finding more ways to increase the former. Otherwise I will just get a GoPro.

Ten years from now, we’ll look back at these articles and videos (about Google Glass) from 2014 and just laugh.

Absolutely true.

∞ Google I/O Thoughts from an iOS Developer

Published under Mango Linked, Jun 30, 2014

This year was the first time I’ve attended the Google I/O conference, and it was a fascinating experience. As someone who is primarily an iOS developer and has been to WWDC before a lot of things about the way Google ran their conference fascinated me. I thought it might be interesting to briefly share some of those.

A great read. And this shocks me a little bit:

Perhaps it’s just the ones I’ve met at Apple, but I’ve never had this experience before. Our developer rep (from Apple) is a nice guy, but he’s not the least bit technical, and in general I could only talk to him when he contacts me. I say ‘could’ because ever since we’ve had success on the Android platform he’s made it very clear that his services are no longer available to us. Perhaps that makes me bitter and jaded about the Developer Rep experience at Apple, but if you ask me it’s justified.

Well, maybe not.

Image Size in iOS Mail App

Published under Mango Paper, Jun 29, 2014

I email myself A LOT to quickly just share an image from my iPhone to my Mac. (Thank god that will be fixed in iOS 8 & Yosemite.)

One day after filling the receiver’s address and hit “Send”, I just lock my iPhone and waiting my email to arrive on my Mac.

Waiting and waiting…. it never come.

And later on I find this on my iPhone:

Come on Apple, it’s 2014 and I am on wifi…
