After seeing this, it made me feel that all laptops should have the LED light on them to notify you when certain events occur.  In this case, the user has put in a custom LED on the upper right corner of his laptop, right above the LCD screen.  Currently, it notifies for Twitter, Pidgeon, and all emails, blinking a different color for each event.  Pretty cool modification to see on an EeePc if you ask me.  Check out the full scoop on this project  here at JustBlaire.

Here’s an interesting mobile application for BlackBerry called Bluehoo, which basically helps you find old friends and make new ones which are currently in your vicinity. Bluehoo uses Bluetooth to discover “hoos” around you right here, right now, and enables you to view those people’s profiles and start conversations.  All you have to do is simply hit the scan button, and it will show you everyone who is in range.  Great for social networking and just getting familiarized with the folks around you.

Point your BlackBerry Browser to m.bluehoo.com to download it OTA

Here’s an awesome application for BlackBerry we came across this morning.  If there is anything in the world that is just really aggravating, it’s the New York City Subway system.  This application makes going around the city so much easier.

Ever wish you knew exactly where to stand on the subway to arrive at your exit? Front? Back? Middle? Exit Strategy NYC literally takes minutes off your subway trips.  With Exit Strategy NYC, you can view the layout of a subway station and plan where to stand accordingly. Taking the 6 train uptown to Grand Central? Ride in the 8th car for the best exit to the Main Concourse. Need to transfer to the L at Union Square from the N downtown? Ride in the 1st car. Detailed diagrams eliminate the guesswork and frustration from your ride, making your subway trip easier and faster.  Be prepared, beat the crowds.  Check out the video below to get a little more feel as to what the app can do for you.

Holly Madison, most famous for her appearances on Playboy, being one of Hugh Hefner’s girlfriends, but not officially a Playboy Playmate was caught with a BlackBerry World Edition 8830.  Of all the devices out today, she decides to remain loyal to the largest and reliable 3G netowrk Verizon, appreciating the sim card capability, and sacrificing the camera for all those Kodak moments she may have.  Her latest appearance was earlier this year in a Guinness World Records attempt for the largest bikini parade ever.

Yesterday, we all found out about Indonesia not so happy about RIM’s negligence in regards to opening a service center within their country. That resulted in Indonesia announcing a deadline for RIM to comply with what they need. Quickly today we saw a reply back from the BlackBerry makers themselves, Research in Motion.

RIM ensured that it’s opening a service center for BlackBerry handsets in Indonesia after the country encountered issues with licenses last month for new BlackBerry devices.
