Thanks for the info Francesco I very much appreciate it.

Currently the software I use to make the site available on the iPhone, iPod Touch and Android phones works also with the Blackberry Storm. I have not yet had the chance to try it with the Blackberry Curve so I will have to get back to you on that, although I see no reason why it should not!

Thanks

Great, I’m navigating the site with my BlackBerry device!
I’ve seen that there’s a ‘BB Storm’ version: does it work
with the brand new ‘BB Curve’?
Thanks!
Francesco

Comment on Bing – Microsoft’s new Search Engine by Brent Billock

In the States, we don’t much use the word “bin” for garbage, especially not as a verb.

Given the miserable attempt Microsoft usually makes at ease-of-use, I’d associate it with the error alert sound you get when you click the unclickable, or invoke a function key that they’ve disabled.

Comment on A full path url, bit.ly url or tinyurl – Which is best? by Alessandro

I think that the full path url (www.englishqed.com/blog/) is the one all first-time internet users and learners would probably consider as a “trusty reference”. Actually, if you have been told the *name* of a site (e.g. by friends or other information channels, referring to sth in the web about english language sounding like ‘englishqed’), you would probably feel surer when linking to a path in which you can *identify* the name you heard about. Shortened forms are very useful, but less (human)user-friendly.
Hope I’ve been helpful!
See you!
