Mention Friends Name in Google Plus Post

For a few weeks now, I’ve been starting to use my Google Plus account more to share my Mobile Nations comics as they get published. I’ve also been noticing that some people are referencing their friends or people in their circles with a clickable link that goes directly to their profiles.  Up until today, I didn’t know how to link to Google Plus accounts in a Google Plus post.

I just found out and here is a tip to mention a friend’s name in google plus post.  Are you ready? Here’s how you can link to a user’s Google Plus profile:

While making a post on Google Plus, simply hit the plus key on your keyboard and start typing out the person’s name.  As you type, name suggestions will come up. Pick the person that you want to link to and you are good to go.

Simple…but a big DUH for me!

Box 50GB Free with Any Andriod

Just spotted this and tested…works like a charm with my EVO 4G!  If you are going to try it, hurry because from what I can tell, you only have until December 31st 2011.

 

Box and it’s cloud storage service is apparently running some sort of free 50GB upgrade for owners of the Sony Xperia Play and various LG phones through the end of the year (yep, just 3 days left). Why we aren’t see it for every Android phone is beyond me, but Sony and LG likely struck some sort of deal to make their devices look more appealing. If you don’t own either though, you can get the 50GB thanks to a handy little app created by developer redphx. Previous attempts to get devices the free space were limited to rooted phones and forced you to edit your build.prop, but this new app allows you to get it by simply signing into your Box account.

Hip Hop Resurrection Part 1

As seen on DJBrow.net

True hip hop is dead and it will never be the same.  With the help of today’s technology,  I am attempting to dig some of it back up and breath life back into hip hop.

I’ve recently discovered some of my old and favorite mix tapes that I once loved back in the early 90′s.  I got my hands on one of those old carry along tape decks, an audio cord and plugged it into my line in jack on my PC’s sound card.  Let the re-recording begin!

Part one begins with one of my favorite tracks by Flipmode Squad’s very own Rampage.  I do not know what the title of the track is but its a true classic in my mind.
