Re: WhatSim SIM Card for Overseas WhatsApp Use

Yeah, same but i think the way they had the network setup, some of the heavier apps weren't working. Never experienced that beforehand.

agree with possibility of indirect link. But could see Whatsapp launching something of their own like this or stickers, which seems lame, but other messaging apps crush with (mainly overseas). When you have 700 million users, there's a lot you can do to monetize, even if it's inexpensive for the user or there are backend value plays.

Why do you think they would have to have opened up the backend? Only non-media messages work with their initial plan. Users can pay more for data usage if they want to send photos / videos, similar to any data plan. This reminds me of a wifi connection I had on a recent Euro trip. Some apps worked (messaging mainly) but other ones like IG didn't. You can make the assumption that their backend is just limiting one app to work or they're keeping per transfer limits so low that only Whatsapp could pass through. iMessage or other similar services could possibly pass also with this assumption but that's not how it's being marketed.

It's not made by Whatsapp. Someone else figured out a way to monetize it. So guess it still begins lol

LeBron's had an endorsement deal with Coke since he was a rookie with the Cavs.

Because BMW is crushing sales numbers and the only way you keep growing is if you expand your line up. The 6 Series Gran Coupe helped, as did the 1 (now the 2 series) and so will this. Also, changing the 3 series would really piss off a lot of enthusiasts IMHO.

Re: iOS 7 is out, get downloading

The one issue I've constantly had with iOS7 beta (including GM) is with Bluetooth. Some major connectivity issues, can't even connect to my car.

Also, I just checked and OTA isn't available yet and I can't get a direct download of iOS7 public yet to see if Bluetooth is still an issue on the final version.

Anyone know?

Kendrick won't be at Philly, Barclays, or MSG (for this area). And also - he's missing Tampa and Vegas shows.

I think he's a bit confused and hypocritical in this clip. I do agree that we should stop and realize what really matters but he didn't sell it as well as he sells his suits.

Re: Infiniti teams up with Louis Vuitton for new concept debuting at Geneva

hiimatif — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 17:48:27 -0000

Yeah bob, LV has everything to do with the auto industry. A company upsells the same car on a luxury platform (ie, honda-acura, nissan-infiniti) with luxe leathers and wood accents. That is LV and if you don't think that LV or any other italian fashion house or luxe brand plays a role in the auto industry, go to an auto show on press days and see who's really sponsoring everything.

It's even funnier considering that Obama thinks video games are one of the leading causes for the underachievements of children in America.

Re: This post was written using Google’s Chrome

yea, and I think that's going to be the biggest barrier for Chrome - the add-ons. I love mozilla for its add-ons, so I'd love to see that same thing happen for Chrome, but in due time I guess.

Re: IE issues with wordpress, disqus, and other plugins

hiimatif — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 16:25:38 -0000

yeah, I deactivated all plugins and narrowed it down to : disqus bein coupled with lightbox or lightview plus, both dont work and also wp-cumulus. none of these will work if coupled in any combination. The problem is because of JS or flash. I need to find out how to get disqus to work with lightview plus or lightbox.
