The new Swype Beta for android seems to be packed with new interesting features.

The one that interests me the most is actually the advanced text prediction. To be able to guess the next word by analyzing the context is a really amazing feature. With the way text inputting is advancing,  there's a chance that next time we'll be able to type as fast or even faster on a phone than on a keyboard. Though... nah maybe not.

I mean, I have 10 fingers to use on the keyboard.

Oh wait, when phones become 10", it'll be possible too. I mean, why not?
We already have 5" phones already.

Android 4.0.1

Probably not the Ice Cream Sandwich you were hoping to see (:

But yeah. I've finally gotten my hands on a build of ICS. Or for those who don't know what it is, it's the next major version of Android (4.0.1).

Yes yes, I'm sorry for posting pictures of my awesome phone again. But, well, I HAD to write about this because I AM the LordofGeek after all. So for those still stuck on those old outdated firmwares, here is me laughing at you.

HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Well, all jokes aside, here's my thoughts on ICS. It's still in Beta at the moment but most of the things are working already so it's rather snappy. I mean like, faster than optimized Gingerbread (2.3.3 ~ 2.3.7) snappy.

I probably want to develop some app on it, but well, maybe in the holidays when I have the time and energy to do it.

Oh well, I felt like I had to bitch about my schedule.

Today, lab test in the morning, followed by presentation, followed by another lab test.
Tomorrow, lab test in the morning.
Day after, lab test in the morning, followed by another lab test, followed by another quiz, followed by another 

Next week, exams. OHHHHH MOTHER OF GOD. Well, so far I haven't screwed up the tests yet. I think? So yeah, KEEP IT UP MAN.

Farewell my minions! 

p.s. that's why I reject going out.
