A Case of Video Gamer Thumbs
I just spent several hours copying my phonebook out of my old cell phone into my new one. My thumbs are so sore. Next time I think I'll spring for the data cable so that I can sync the data in my phone with my PC and move it automatically. The good thing about having to do it manually is that I had to go through and choose which numbers to transfer. I was kind of surprised that I moved almost all of them.

My new phone is a Motorola 120e. It only adds a few feature over my old phone, a Motorola 120c. The new phone has more phonebook entries, 5 games, and a datebook. The user programmable ring tones are a little more flexible and it has GPS support. I have it set to 911 only. The last thing I need is my phone trying to sell me things based on where I am. I can't image why anyone would turn the blasted feature on.

I realize I forgot the fun link yesterday. I'll make up for it with two today. The first one is a web version of Shisen Sho, an addictive variation of Mah Jong. The second is a quiz to see if you can tell programming language designers from serial killers. Enjoy!
