1800PocketPC.com -- What do you guys think ?

Hi fellas
I have a windows mobile site 1800PocketPC.com, its just over a year old. I was wondering if you guys have heard of it ?
We usually post about freewares and the latest hardware news about windows mobile. We dont have a forum for people to hang out coz we think as long as xda-devs and ppcgeeks are there why would anyone need a forum for windows mobile. I was hoping to get some constructive criticism about the site and ways we can improve the site.
You can also subscribe to our RSS ot Twitter
I know your site for some time and it´s very good, I like the format (exept for a narrower line of adds on the right)
Congrats!
I go all the time
I really like the site,
only thing is you could be be a little bit more "selective" or "picky"
At least what I think this could be "Pearls and beauty" of xda-developers.com for the average guy.
- I really like the category style!
- The Wallpaper stuff: Naaaahh I think you will catch some fishes with this but is it really needed? I think it makes the site look a bit cheap.
- RSS and twitter is great: every Headline was a hit so far (well some exeptions but I think beauty is in the eye of the beholder).
- Customisable rss and twitter by categorys and user would be the ultimate I think (but this would almost need the power of a socialnetwork)
- You are already on the top scores of google! (at least when I search for something)
- You can discover the real beauty of google translator when visiting your site Microfi Nitrogen -> Microfi Stickstoff (Germans get the joke)
but besides of the jokes it can be really usefull.
- I can´t test right now but have you checked "freedom from barriers"? The new "touchscreen generation" of phones might be great for handicapped persons. Would also be great to have a rating system for them as well.
So far really great
THX for this site
thanks for the kind words fellas.
@ moesfeld : Customisable rss and twitter by categorys is a great idea, I will look in to getting it done in the near future.
I am in the dark about "freedom from barriers" , do you have any links from where I can read more regarding this ?
Hi sajio,
You have really done a great job with the site, i actually am now quite addicted to your site to catch on the software which i miss on XDA. So keep up the good work and i hope with all the frequent updates and personal attention, you have made it full of valuable resources. What i think is keep your site fresh alway like you do now, and you would not need anything additional.
Regards
Sharif Ansari

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well it pretty much depends on what cms you use. Many have the "accessability for disabled" already inbuild.
I found the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines
Also I found the Web Accessibility Toolbar that lets you check if you meet the guidelines.
I know your site a while ago, and I like very much.
Keep it up
I go there @ll the time nice job!
thanks guys
i love it and subscribe to rss for it. thanks for you hard work.
you are welcome

My attempt at a live wallpaper

Hi all,
Hacked up an live wallpaper this week and thought I might get people's thought on it here.
It's on the android marketplace now, and it's a free app, a small physics bases live wallpaper.
I was going to post the QR code to it, but I guess being a new user I can't do external links.
Please go to the android marketplace and search for "letterphile live wallpaper".
Any feedback welcome.

TxtWeb App2Fame Contest for Developers

Hi All,
I found this really interesting so thought of sharing it with you all.
This is about a very interesting contest 'txtweb app2fame'. All we need to do is develop simple apps based on SMS which work without the internet.
We all have been creating apps but never thought of developing such applications that are accessible by millions as not everyone uses internet on phone. It hardly takes couple of hours to create such applications and txtweb gives us the opportunity to win prizes like a dream holiday, ipad etc...
Great opportunity for students and new start ups to become famous. Check the URL below for more information about the contest: app2fame. com
Hey that's a good news... Thanks for sharing...
You're right all of us have created such apps at some point and they are really easy to develop moreover txtWeb makes it much simpler... So all that we need is a great idea... I guess this the first such contest happening in India.. Many of my friends have already submitted few apps and I'm hoping to submit my share as well..
Bingo txtWeb
Hi guys I have created one APP.... Help me win: SMS @tophostings to 9243342000 and you will receive a text back with a list of Top Hosting.. Really Easy to Develop.
Guys the last date for the submission of applications is 30th June. So hurry up..

[WP 7] All-Star Food Finder - Find Restaurants From Your Favorite TV Shows!

Hey everyone,
I just put up All-Star Food Finder in the Windows Phone Marketplace. It's one of my first apps. Check it out and let me know what you think. Here's the details:
Do you drool when you watch Guy Fieri stuff his face with delicious foods at a diner 100 miles away? Do you get pumped when you watch a Man v. Food eating challenge and say 'I can do that!' ?
All-Star Food Finder helps you find the restaurants featured on popular TV shows like Man v. Food, No Reservations, Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives and more!
Search by state, search by name or just discover what's near you using your GPS location and you'll get to try all of the food goodness you've seen on TV.
All-Star Food Finder ties in real Yelp reviews so you'll know if a restaurant is really worth your while to try.
You can also save restaurants as Live Tiles to your home screen for fast and handy access.
When you buy All-Star Food Finder, you can save restaurants to your own I've Been Here List and your personal Wish List. In addition, the paid version is ad-free.
Looking or comments, suggestions or just any feedback in general. Thanks!

Hey,
Just found this in the US store but notice it's not in any other marketplaces...
I know the app is full of US restaurants but I'm doing a three week roadtrip round the USA in the summer and something like this would be awesome to have.
Could you consider publishing it to other marketplaces (UK at least please!) so that I can buy a copy?
Ta
Thanks for an informative post. This restaurant app is good and user friendly, I love to use this app whenever I go for outing.

[Q] Hyper island students looking for smart watch owners for interview on usage.

Hi everyone,
We are a coupe of students from Hyper Island looking for people that owns a smart watch for a study that we're making.
We are developing a wearables concept for one of the biggest newspapers in Sweden and would really like to ask those who owns a smart watch on how they are using it and why.
If you would be interested in helping us out, please post your email address or other contact information so that we can send you the questions that we have.
It would really be appreciated.
Thank you!
