The world's first 'white-label mobile share trading platform' has just been launched.
How do I know that it is the world's first? Truth be told - I don't, I'm guessing.
Googling did not throw up any other white label m - share trading application.

Have a look at the Mobile Share Trader site


Wouldn't it be a good idea to have a website which just offers trading on blue chip
companies from a mobile phone?

A word is born NOMOBILITY, a lighter state of being is on the horizon
- nomobility.
I could hyphenate it, nomo-bility. Do with it what you like. It flirts
lightly with the word nobility and describes a person who is pleased and
proud NOT to be seen with a mobile phone. A free-thinker perhaps?

It started one evening when I decided to visit my new neighbour and family
and we had such a great time that I didn't notice the time passing. When I
got home at 11:45my partner had called the police and weeks later I am
still listed as a missing person . It's oddly amusing.

Nevertheless I now walk the streets of my London neighbourhood without a
mobile phone and I feel lighter enobled even (enomobiled).

Let it roll of your tongue, say "at last I am nomobiled".

And there I was thinking I am funny. In my previous blog
today I mentioned the similiarities between the new
buzzword Nomophobia and Homophobia and cracked half a
joke about nomosexuality thinking I was the first person
to use it.

Well I just googled the word and it turns out that nomosexuality
describes people who don't have any need for the base physicality
the rest of us quite likes to indulge in.

A friend of mine works for the Post Office UK, and he told me
how the latest buzzword 'Nomophobia' came to enter the virtual ether.

Patrick O'Neill the clearly very creative 'Head of Communications'
at the Post Office came up with this term just one week ago, and
already Google is showing 80.000 links to different sites picking it up,
and guaranteeing it a secure space in our lingo 2008.


Nomo-phobia, stands for 'no mobile - phobia', the fear of not having
access to your mobile phone or being cut off for one reason or another
from your network.

The play on letters with the word homophobia are quite amusing.
Nomophobic as an adverb works, if we decouple it from the word
'phobia' we are looking at a 'No-mo' a person without a mobile phone,
a species which will cease to exist if we don't take make sure that
we continue tolerating it's existence amongst us.

What about no-mo-sexuals? Now I'm getting lost.

Wow so many things have happened since the last time I blogged.
I have gotten myself a Nokia N95 and have decided that there is
absolutely no need to buy a digital camera any longer.

The camera on the N95 is outstanding. I hear that Nokia is about
to release a new version of the N95 with 8BG internal memory.
This is unbelievable.

I have transferred all my favourite programs onto the Nokia 95 such
as Kryptext, 10ptext and Blitzplanet and a mobile phone payment
and voting method which makes the efforts of Felica look childish.

Last week I got on the 159 bus into London.
You've probably seen those pretty red busses on TV.

When I got on, I decided to go up to the top floor.
A few people were already sitting there, another
few came up with me. There were only about 10
people sitting there.

cheap sms

As one does when there aren't other people obstacling
seats, I distributed myself over a couple of seats.

As soon as I sat down a skinny shortish guy, with gelled, spiky
dark hair, sitting on the other side of
the aisle picks up his cell phone and starts yapping.
He was gay, which obviously doesn't matter, it was just
immediately obvious that he was the skinny, bitchy sort
no one really likes, but everyone is scared of.

I am nosy, and if I am honest, I wouldn't mind
having ear extensions so that I could pull out my ears at
will and place them just in front of somebodys mouth.
A 4-5 meters extension would be just fine.
In short, I wouldn't have minded listening to a funny bitchy
conversation to brighten up my journey. But what a dissapointment,
it turns out he is just the half-baked variant of a bitchy man,
his mode of behaviour is just being perpetually
petulant. Yet still, credit to anyone who can report his whereabouts
whilst pouting.

As soon as he hung up, he dialled another number and
started a brand new equally boring yet very loud conversation.

Within a minute 6 out of 10 people had their phones out and
were letting things hang out on their phones. My ears started
spinning at that point.

I was really taken aback by this sudden volume increase.
I am not used to that, as I rarely travel on public transport.
I had heard and read about it though.
I turned around looking every phone conversationalist in the
eye and doing my disbelieving, mocking über-citizen
bit, which didn't work one bit by the way.

Next thing, my phone rings and I am suddenly the one
saying: "I'm on the bus ...."

I am getting to my point, slowly but surely.

The solution to unwanted public noise increase due to
phone use is a mobile phone jammer, I thought.
Wouldn't you love it?

What I am really interested in, are small handheld
phone jammers. Let me know if you have any on
offer, I know already around 20 people who are
ready to pay for such a tool. I am happy to resell
them.

My oh my, I found a great site that wants you
to play with it all day long.

If you can squeeze 5 minutes into your lunch
hour, do exactly as I say.

Don't click on the Zlio link yet -
wait until I've told you what it's all about.

These Zlio people reckon we're all greedy and
in for an easy ride to make LOADSAMONEY.
And you know what, they've seen straight
to the bottom of my soul.

Zlio lets you setup shop in literally 5 minutes.
It is not a run of the mill e-commerce cart where
you've got to fiddle around for a day or two to
make it work. Zlio is for real amateur affiliates,
it is for real life idiots.

As I am interested in mobile phone software
I have geared my Zlio shop towards these type
of toys. You can see a product I chose for my
shop when you look below the title of my blog.

As a Zlio shopkeeper, I have access to an
abundance of retailers who want me as their
reseller.
A short list of retailers:
Skype, Sony, Apple Amazon.

I have obviously not sold anything yet from
my Zlio shop site, as I set up shop 5 minutes ago.
I therefore don't know how reliable they are with regards to
outpayment to their affiliates.

But I hear that they are going around hat in
hand and are about to get $3.5 million from
some venture Capital company.

Click here to have a look at Zlio and then

Wow, what a scandal, hot on the heels of my blog
entry a couple of weeks ago about SMS espionage.

Here we have it again, but now from the biggest
kid on the block. A technologuy at Wal Mart
has been caught intercepting calls and SMS text
messages from a journalist working for the New
Yorker over a four months period.

Why did he do it, nobody knows and Wal Mart states
categorically that they don't have anything to do
with it.

security phone

How did he do it? I'd like to know. The only options
I can think of are these:
1. he stole people' Sim cards,
2. he checked SMS that were sent via PC's or MAcs
retrospectively,
3. he worked for a mobile service provider,
4. he was using Rexspy,
5. or he bought the GSM interceptor
http://www.endoacustica.com/gsm_interceptor.htm


The only programme I am aware off which doesn't
require full body armour for SMS protection, but
just a little adjustment on your handset to protect
against nosey intruders is the product Kryptext.

But Kryptext only works on Symbian phones, but not
yet on the Symbian 3 series.

Everyone should have Kryptext on their phone.
Handango is currently selling Kryptext in
their shop.
Click on the link below and get it now.
It's only $14 for your security.

I mentioned the launch of Mixd in November 2006.
But it now looks as if Yahoo is keeping their
fingers out of the SMS business. Why?

My guess is that IM on mobile phones should
be enough to excite the "Youth" at which
Mixd was squarely aimed at.

I find the move pretty decisive and if I was
a hillibilly investor I would be so impressed
that I would buy their shares.

On the other hand The Youth of today may
choose to cry over the loss of yet another
possibility to lose oneself in non-sensical
chatter %-).

I keep scratching my head why it's still news
to a lot of people that having the
Internet on your mobile phone
means that you can get SMS at much cheaper rates.

What seems to be still most exciting is downloading
music or games I guess.
It is about time that the most popular feature on
a mobile phone, SMS, is getting the Internet treatment.

As I live in foreign lands I am constantly using
10pText.co.uk to send soppy SMS messages back to
my folk at home.

10pText.co.uk also works on my journeys around Europe.

10pText.co.uk offers a two thirds of the price off
what I used to pay my provider Orange.
Even if you include the price for the data being
sent back and forth I am saving 2/3.

As the Internet on mobile phones is here to stay
I reckon that this the most logical step SMS
is going to take is onwards, forwards and upwards.

Happy texting to all foreigners and holiday makers!

Yesterday I promised you a FREE game and here it is.

The game is called Mammoth hunter.
Playing this you'll understand why mammoths are now
extinct from this planet. That's how good it is.
Those of you with good memory and fast eye-thumb
coordination will succeed.

The idea is to drive the mammoth into a
central pit by 5 hunters.

The mammoth is clever enough to always escape
in the direction with the least number of hunters.
There are 5 hunters who you need to name 1-9 by
selecting the appropriate digits from
your mobile phone keyboard.

If you want hunter 4 to move or to stop, press
number 4 on your phone and so on. Apart from that
you can direct the hunter by using the cursor.

You need to be able to remember the positions of
your 5 hunters to move them otherwise the mammoth
will escape

If your phone has no left and right cursor buttons,
then use * and # keys instead of them.

If you're really fast you can move all hunters at
the same time.

Mammoth hunter is addictive.

You can get Mammoth hunter by going to the link below.
Download and unzip the file to your computer.
Install the jar file from your computer to your
phone via a cable or bluetooth link.
Happy hunting.

I've found some brilliant programes, some free, some of great
bargain value which I thought you might want to know about.

But I noticed sth, especially with free programes. Some
programmers don't understand that there are a lot of people
out there who don't know how to install programmes onto their
mobile phones. Fair enough, they're not charging anything for
their programmes and therefore don't support or explain in
detail how users can get hold of their products.

Consumers on the other hand are used to pay a premium rate
to get a program delivered to their cell phone. They expect
it to start running as soon as it hits their mobile phone.
It doesn't work quite like that.

But what can a consumer do if there's no premium rate number
to dial? How do they download a free program?

Below is a link to a video on Youtube which shows you exactly
how it's done.

http://www.blitzplanet.com/faq.php

Next time I'll let you know how to download a free game to
your computer and from there to your cell phone (for our
American friends), mobile phones (for our English brothers
and sisters) or Handys (hello Germany).

I've got a plan. It came about when I read about Anna Nicole Smiths death and thought 'Oh I'm sorry', and then I saw a little clip on CNN about Obama announcing his presidency and thought 'Finally - go for it man'.

Where do you leave these thoughts for everyone to read if you don't want to start yet another blog with another topic. I've got three already.
My plan is to figure out how to set up a site where people can send off an SMS text message to a certain number, and their message arrives like a ticker on a website called 'stillworkingoutname.com'

I'd like this site to be divided into basic topics like 'Entertainment, Sport, Politics, Just Saw You' (that's for those on the train or bus seeing someone they fancy) and Business. The site would go up as .mobi site so that readers can go online with their mobile phones and watch messages ticking past whilst on their way back from work.

Anyone interested in starting to set this project up, get in touch.
I guess it'll cost very little producing it, but a lot and the right
connections to make it popular.
Just made my first phone call to find out how to collect SMS and
display them on a website.

Stay tuned!

Yesterday I wrote about a program called Rexspy which allows a phone to be used as a bugging device and which plunders through your SMS messages. This threw up a question and answered another quite interesting one.

Are there ways of protecting oneself against the type of intrusion of Rexspy? And how can you make sure that not only Rexspy but others cannot read your SMS text messages. Thankfully there is an uncomplicated way of hiding one's SMS text messages not only from Big Brother, but also from partners. I don't want to introduce tools that make adultery easier, but Kryptext is it ;-)

You can get Kryptext from Handango. Here's how it works. Whenever your secret lover sends a message to you the SMS is displayed as nonsensical text in your mobile phone's inbox. Your long suffering and therefore suspiscious partner naturally assumes that you are unfaithful and checks your message whilst you're in the bath but can't read it.

The link to Kryptext on the mobile phone portal Handango is here
http://www.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=1&platformId=4&N=7%2095636&productId=141685&R=141685

Wow, a Germany company has managed to create a program that can turn any mobile phone into a bugging device. Flaws in the protocol of the service sms are being exploited to do so. The Trojan horse is called Rexspy.

Here's how it works. The spy only requires your mobile phone number and sends off an SMS to your mobile phone which never arrives in your inbox. You'll never hear a sound or see any indication that a virus has been installed on your phone.

As soon as Rexspy is secretly installed, the spy can listen to all your mobile phone conversations and read all your SMS text messages.

The company who has developed Rexspy also created a remedial program, which is a little odd I find, quite as if Kaspersky would create viruses just to prove the point for virus protection.

Whatever the reason for the company Securstar to create this Trojan, it has helped the FBI to capture two Mafiosis last year. It seems as if this exploit has been discovered by security services around the world already.

I don't know if it is possible to get hold of Rexspy, but what a tool that would be for those who believe that their partner is unfaithful. A new scope of terror that could be introduced into relationships.

These security flaws should be closed immediately by mobile phone manufacturers and service providers I feel.

A remedy for those who don't want anyone to read their SMS is the product Kryptext which is available from Handango. It works only on Symbian phones. Go to Handango and check out if this type of protection works on your phone.

I don't know what to do about protecting phone calls yet, but stay tuned

Hi there dear friend,

I just stumbled accross a little movie showcasing some new
software for your mobile phone...
I promise that this info could save you hundreds perhaps even
thousands of dollars, pounds, marks and yen, and earn you the
same amount or even more.

There's this new kid on the block who makes the bigger and badder
kids cry upon sight
:-).
I've just played around with an awesome piece of useful technology.
The strap line of that company is
'MAKE BLITZ NOT WAR'. Whoaa, I was naturally a tad
curious and peeked over my screen to see it, and now I've got it
FIRMLY implanted on my phone.

cheap international sms

WHAT IS IT?
Listen carefully,
- If you're just a little like me then you do like travelling.
-- If you're a little more like me then you've got friends and family
living in other countries.
---If you're even more like me then you're foaming at the mouth whenenver
you get your phone bill. Haha

There are a number of VERY COOL features on that program.
You'll need 3 minutes, no that's a lie, 2 minutes at the most and
Internet access from your phone for starters.

___Download and install it, you will never want to use another piece of
software for your mobile phone communication_____

<> The first thing the program does is, it gets you to send SMS worldwide
(to 130 countries out of 192 countries) at bargain prices straight from your mobile
phone.
That's very useful to me as I can keep the credits for 3 years on my phone,
and hey let's be honest, if you won't travel abroad within the next three years
you absolutely definitely need a life style change.

<><> Secondly I can update my blog with it by sending emails to this blog
That wouldn't be in any way sensational if it wasn't for the price. £1 per month,
that's less then a bottle of Innocent (my new morining wake-up drink before coffee)

Not one of the big guys is currently offering email at £1 per month.
What an opportunity. WOW !!

Included in that price is the best feature of all, no.3, picture
messaging, MMS to any email address or to other users of the same service, a bit
like Skype that is.
For the price of three packets of chewing gum. Why are they doing it? They might
just withdraw the offer when the general public sniffs out the deal, get it now.

And then, there's instant messaging, which is good I suppose. I was never too hot on
that. But looking at the zillions of people IM'ing, I guess Blitz Planet have
cleverly sewn up that market too.
I am going snowboarding next week to France and I have to keep some familial and
business contact going. So I'll certainly be using the photo messaging and SMS
feature and will therefore take Blitzplanet along on my phone.

MAKING MONEY WITH BLITZ PLANET
This system works on the basis of - you scratch my back and scratch, scratch and
scratch a bit more, and I might do the same to them :)
You can make serious money with this service from Blitz Planet.

Here's how it works...

...whenever my girlfriend, who is beautiful and Australian, tops up her Blitzplanet
account I'll get a cut of the total. This girl is an untiring sms'ler. If her
girlfriends (all from Australia) top up their accounts, she is earning with
every single follow-up payments her girlfriends are making.

Go to the site http://www.blitzplanet.com, get Blitz Planet now, but do me a big
favour and click on the Blitz banner here on my website. I need to pay for my
holidays.
I really really love you.

Just read a pretty powerful sentence by the Vice CEO of Nokia. He claimed "If you don't have full Internet in your pocket in 10 years time you will be socially incompetent!" What about the 72.5% of Americans who have decided against Internet use on their mobile phones?

According to a survey by IDC 72.5 percent of American cell phone subscribers have not accessed any content services on their handsets in 2006 other than SMS texting. The reason being appears to be that 47% thought data services were too expensive. In fact they thought they were overpaying. Currently Americans spend an average of $3.70 per month for data services. This is not a lot at all, considering that the cheapest mobile service provider in the UK is charging £1 per MB, but only as a package of 5MB and UK customers are happy to pay for it. This is more than three times as much as Americans are prepared to pay today.

What I like about Zagat is that restaurant reviews are based on impressions of ordinary folk, you and I.
I was therefore really happy to read that Zagat has launched a program that can be installed on handsets, But next I read that it'll be only available for Palm OS, BlackBerry, Motorola Q, other Windows Mobile Pocket PCs and Smartphones. People at Zagat listen up, it cannot be that difficult to create a Java program that works on all phones, whatever your programer tells you.

The French company Orange has rolled out a service Called "Mon PC à distance"(even ole Bush could translate that), the service requires users to download a free software client onto their PCs. They can then use any mobile device with standard browsing and multimedia capabilities to view photos or videos and listen to music stored on their PCs. No special client software is needed on the mobile device.

The most interesting mobile phone news today is how the company MobiTV, who first launched in 2003, received funding to the tune of $70mio. Not bad for a few days work. Sprint Nextel was the first U.S. carrier to use their services.
(http://www.wirelessweek.com/toc-newsat2/2006/20060712.html)
"MobiTV will use these funds for a number of things, but generally to address the overwhelming demand for our mobile and PC television offerings," says MobiTV spokesman Jason Taylor. "We also plan to invest in development and research for new network technologies - further exploring DVB-H and WiMAX - among other solutions," he says.
MobiTV are not alone in investigating Wimax's potential. Sprint Nextel announced in mid-2006 that it will be investing about US$ 3 billion in a WiMAX technology buildout over the next few years.

Yippie, now and forever the myth will be laid to rest that cancer is in any way caused by mobile phone use. 420.000 Danish mobile phone users were followed from 1982 -1995 and the results presented by the Danish Institute of Cancer Epidemiology, show that mobile phone users have the same chance of developing the disease as the general population. The results are published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute

If you don't have a Google mail account already, you can't get one through the back door by signing up for Google's Mobile mail account. Unfortunately this is the reason I cannot test their mobile mail solution at the moment. I am interested to hear what others have to say. But hey onwards and upwards, am looking forward to review other mobile mail solutions.

What is ROI going to do with their Blackberies now that Google is offering mobile email? If I were the CEO of Research in Motion I'd take a long long holiday. But hey they didn't do badly for a number of years.

Read on to find out how Google mail works on mobile phones.

Installing the program is pretty easy, a simple text message request to Google is returned within seconds and includes a search option and a link to Google mail.
Consider this for a moment, millions of people are going to want this program on their mobile phones ,and these wap push messages are being sent out free of charge by Google. Googles money coffers must be bottomless, but as the only way mobile use is going to go is 'Up', they are undoubtedly on the right track.

I have four phones on which I can run tests. My old an trusted workhorse the Nokia 6600, the rather more sensitive Nokia 6680, the sleek Ericsson K800i and the quite reliable Nokia 6230i.
As of now the Google Mail option doesn't work on my Nokia 6600, the Google search option is bundled into the program they just sent to me and that works fine; it therefore is not my Internet connection that is causing the problem, but probably a technical issue at Google's end. I guess they will have that fixed shortly, and I'll tell you more later.

Nokia and Yahoo announced that a range of Yahoo services will be made available on a select range of Nokia's Series 40 non-smartphones. Initially, Yahoo Messenger and Yahoo Mail will be mounted on Nokia's 5300 and 5200 youth orientated handsets, as well as the new 6300 slim handset announced yesterday.
I find it odd that Yahoo doesn't make a downloadable client available to all handsets that were manufactured post Nov 2002.
