Danger Danger!

Well, this sure isn’t a grand feeling. My T-Mobile sidekick is synced with Danger, Inc. for all of my contacts, notes, etc. Now, this is cool because if I lose my phone, get a new one, etc all my stuff is still there. No Facebook groups for “I lost my phone I need numbers!” for me. But today, I’m paying the price for that. The constant sync with Danger means that if www.sidekick.dngr.com fails to work, as it is today, I can’t get at any of my data. Including phone book entries. After messing around with my phone to no avail, I tried using my online desktop interface through my.tmobile.com and it won’t load either, so Danger has crashed and taken down who knows how many sidekicks with it. But this is highly upsetting. Things like txt and picture messages started to come back, as well as did the clock, but this is just plain a pain in the ass.

Danger, get your stuff together. I know that M$FT aquired you earlier in the year, but this is no excuse. With Google’s Android right around the corner and MS doing who knows what with the sidekicks, I might be going a different route next time I get a new phone anyways. But things like this definately do not help.

EDIT: Literally, as soon as I hit submit, my phone went nuts and I got my emails back. Maybe things are getting fixed!

In other news, I applied for a position at Twitter. It’s working from home doing support staff, basically answering emails for customers quickly and efficiently. Nothing that’s beyond my capabilities, but let’s see how stiff the competition is for something like this. I would love to work for twitter, it’s something I’m quite familiar with and besides, who wouldn’t want that on their resume?

Ooh, and after screwing up my new camera, I’ve sent it to an authorized Samsung repair center in New York. So much for the good price I got for it
