			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So this is my first blog post from my iPod touch from the newly released WordPress app. It is very very simple, almost as simple as it can get. You input a title, tags, choose your categories, and then start typing out your thoughts for the world to see. Pretty cool, huh?</p>
<p>One major thing I am seeing included is the ability to post images. For instance, here&#8217;s a screenshot: Oh wait, never mind. You can&#8217;t post images in certain parts of your posts. All the images will default to the bottom. Feature request number 1.</p>
<p>Since I got my iPod touch, it has really changed my mind on how I think of the future of mobility. I was one of the CrackBerry addicts, and for that matter still am. Now that I have an iPod touch (with the 2.0 firmware, mind you), I absolutely see this as the platform of the future. The iPhone architecture is a very robust one since it is built off of OS X.</p>
<p>Honestly, who doesn&#8217;t want a full featured Internet experience in your pocket wherever you go? You can argue that you can with Opera Mini on various devices or HTML on Windows Mobile and soon to be BlackBerry, but from what I&#8217;ve experienced, none of them render pages and emails so elegantly and true to the desktop experience as the iPhone.</p>
<p>You may call me a fanboy, but I disagree. There are faults with the iPhone software and I still love my BlackBerry for communication needs, including email, texting, and even Twitter. iPhone 2.0 has many flaws in it&#8217;s software and it&#8217;s buggy as hell. I once crashed MobileSafari 5 times in one day. That&#8217;s pretty sad for reliability.</p>
<p>But the best part of 2.0 is the App Store. Otherwise I wouldn&#8217;t be typing this on my iPod tout, unless I submitted it through email, but that&#8217;s a pain.</p>
<p>The App Store is essentially a candy store for iPhone and iPod touch users with all of the apps that are available online. You&#8217;ve got tons and tons of games, including the super-hyped Super Monkey Ball, an AOL Instant Messenger app, Twitterrific among at least two other Twitter apps, and just so many useful and fun apps. Now, that&#8217;s not to say there aren&#8217;t apps that suck; there are plenty of those. But if you generally stick with the well known and most downloaded apps, you&#8217;ll be good.</p>
<p>So while this post has been a bit random, so is my mind at the moment. Overall, here&#8217;s a summary: WordPress App = good for version 1.0. iPhone 2.0 = well worth it. There are a few other things I&#8217;d like to mention, but that will have to come at a time when my brain isn&#8217;t going in 50,000 directions. Look forward to that one&#8230; Whenever I get around to it.</p>
