TweetCaster review
Tweetcaster is an ok twitter app, however it has issues that bother me.First, the ads are poorly placed and very easy to accidently click them.This leads to the other problem, it seems to be to large to stay in memory and takes a while to load and is generally slow. I find these issues to be irritating enough that I am going to uninstall it after I complete this post. I noticed that the developer seems to be routing the ads through their own servers to avoid ad blocking.

T-Mobile data problems continue
I just spoke with customer service again about the data problem at my home and they determined that it is a problem with the cell site. I tried to tell them this a month ago. They have no eta on a fix, it could be days or weeks. This has been going on for over a month and a half now. This is now well past the point of breach of contract on their part and I could get out of the rest of contract, I am wondering if it is time to look at other providers.

Stupid spammers
I had a spammer post a link to his warez site as a comment to my last entry. From trying to read their post, it was clear that English was not their primary language.
Due to this, I disabled anonymous comment posting and enabled comment moderation. I did not want to moderate comments on my blog because I wanted to allow a free and open disscussion on the topics I post.

More review of swype on my G1
I have been using swype for android for about a week now and I am pleased with it so far. If you use the on-screen keyboard a lot, it makes entry faster and smoother.
The built in dictionary is large and it is not difficult to add new words. I am not sure how to remove custom words; however, I have not had a need to remove one yet.
I am curious about the price structure for the release version, I am getting used to this text entry system and would not like having to give it up because they set a price point that is out of reason for the product. There is a very large potential customer base for this software and I feel they would make more by selling at a lower price, with more copies sold than a high price and few copies sold.
Overall, this is a nice software package that I would recommend to anyone that has an android based phone.

Thanks to Andrew Spellman for turning me onto this software.
