TOOTHING

Posted in Uncategorized at 9:45 am by chris

I do find bluetooth very useful in numerous ways. Like if am beyond reach I could use it to tap Smart 3G net service so I could use the web in my laptop. It is so ubiquitous these days that a phone without one is analogous to a relic that is old as time itself. Lol. Anyway, I have discovered that you can actually find use for this tool in improving your dreary social life. And it’s a big use I am telling you especially if you’re surrounded by hotties who actually know how this thing works so they leave their bluetooth open.

For the longest time I have wondered how to use bluetooth to send messages to someone within your range. Searching for phones within reach and trying to do something with the list is so not good because you are required a pass key or something to that effect.

Well, it turns out that it is not the way to do it. Here’s how to send a message.

Make a new Contact entry in your phonebook. In the name field, you type your pickup line (i.e., Hey, is ur name Summer? Ur so hot!) You save it and include your number so the target could respond if he or she doesn’t know how this setup works. Send this Contact entry via bluetooth and that’s it. The target would receive it, the phone would ask if he or she wants to save the new contact, the message would be read and wait for the stars to align, so to speak.

Of course, this bluejacking thing requires a lot of good luck on your side. Imagine if the room is filled by a hundred warm bodies – some of them fugly some of them not, some of them mean and some stupid. The dilemma comes with sorting each one out. Lucky for you, some people out there could actually name their bluetooth identity like Ganda, Wafu, Sexy, Free, Wild, Hot and all those magic adjectives lol. You, my friend, should do the same as well. Just don’t use Virus. You’re as good as dead.

AR: So the key questions that you should address in the article are:

blah blah blah

Dude: Seems fine to me.
AR: Am not done, yet.
Dude: Oh, yeah? Did I say so? People are so uptight these days.
AR: Anyway, you should look at books, films, you know I need a good long set of references for this. See the West Wing, The Great Mcginty, read Timothy Corrigan -
Dude: Like I don’t know better. Are you gonna reimburse the expenses?
AR: Well, no. But as you see the project price is astronomical as it is.
Dude: Er. was just asking. :P
AR: You gotta produce about 8 pages. Thats about 2500 words.
Dude: Sure.
AR: Ok, good. You got 7 hours.
Dude: Eh? what do you take me for? All those film watching and McGinty reading; eight pages and all and you’re giving me just a 7 hour turnaround time? For god’s sake, that’s a frigging treatise already.
AR: Can’t do anything about it. Am just giving you the heads up Chris. There’s a queue out there.
Dude: Wah! %@*#!!!!!

TALKING TO THE FUTURE

The US 2008 elections shattered some traditions not just by electing Obama as the new potus. CNN premiered the first ever reporting where a person was beamed from Chicago to the CNN headquarters in New York as a hologram! It’s super cool reminiscent of the Star Wars version of a phone call.

Watch:

Wow!
