  • iOS 9 features inspired by Android

    I have some devices running on multiple operating systems (iOS, Android, and Windows Phone). But, recently I use Android more than iOS.

  • Inbox by Gmail is available for everyone

    Inbox by Gmail is now available for everyone. Previously, those who want to get Inbox by Gmail should be invited by other Inbox users. Inbox by Gmail is available for iOS and Android. Or, simply go to inbox.google.com. I’m using it in daily basis, and so far I like the way it displays the messages.

    Pengalaman Menggunakan Layanan Uber Jakarta

    Walaupun sudah cukup lama layanan taksi Uber dapat dinikmati di Jakarta sebagai salah satu pilihan moda transportasi, namun saya baru saja mencobanya sendiri dalam satu bulan terakhir. Selain Jakarta, layanan Uber di Indonesia juga dapat dinikmati di kota lain seperti Bandung dan Bali. Kalau dari melihat beberapa pengalaman dari pengguna Uber, sepertinya sangat banyak yang…

    Ulasan Windows Phone 8 dan Aplikasi pada Ponsel Lumia

    Tulisan ini adalah lanjutan dari artikel sebelumnya tentang ponsel Lumia 535. Sebelum saya menuliskan artikel tersebut, saya sudah mencoba menggunakan ponsel (beserta dengan sistem operasi Windows Phone) walaupun belum dalam frekuensi sehari-hari.

    Ulasan Ponsel Microsoft Lumia 535 Dual SIM

    Microsoft, sebagai perusahaan yang mengakuisisi Nokia, mengeluarkan produk ponsel pertama yang menghilangkan identitas “Nokia”, yaitu Microsoft Lumia 535. Jadi, tidak perlu bingung mengapa dulu ada istilah ‘Nokia Lumia’, namun nama Lumia sendiri sekarang tidak disandingkan dengan ‘Nokia’. Pertengahan Desember 2014 ini, saya memutuskan untuk membeli Lumia 535. Produk Lumia 535 ini saya beli melalui pre-order…

  • Solution: WhatsApp crashes on iOS 8 Beta

  • Let's talk about NOKN: A smart modular bag

    I couldn’t remember how many bags I had. I was not so picky about the design, colors, or models. I only need some common criteria: it’s functional, and its price should be good. I don’t mind spending more cash on bags (or any other fashion items) as long as it’s good and it fits me.…

  • Goodbye Readmill

    Readmil has been my favorite ebook reader so far. I have shared my thought on this long time ago. I have a good really good experience. But, it seems that I have to find another alternative in the future since Readmill will be closed permanently in next July 2014. Sad. This Berlin-based team will be…

  • Sejenak Mengunjungi Kota Solo (Bagian 1)

    Akhir pekan lalu, saya memutuskan untuk mengunjungi Solo. Bulan Juli lalu sempat juga ke Solo, untuk keperluan berbeda. Saat itu, saya ke Solo cuma untuk transit melanjutkan perjalanan ke Jakarta. Perjalanan saya ke Solo terakhir kemarin meninggalkan beberapa kesan, dan pengalaman baru. Rencana awal hanyalah untuk sekadar melihat-lihat ke ACE Hardware — karena di Jogjakarta…
