I've been watching sense UI evolving into something of an epitome of what webOS should have been. After the andriod came out i have been expecting for HTC to brand skin it, as they did for windows mobile. This has happened and its starting to remind me of my feelings for webOS, HTC is such a young company with raw talent and drive, i was surprised and actually expected all of this to happen. My first impression was the same that i had for webOS, was to get my jailbroken skin for my IPhone and it kinda happened but i wasn't feeling it, now that i saw the update version on engadget i was hitting my target feeling with the same product. Which is I fucking love what there doing, finally a company that did it right.
Now that we have that covered i was to discuss the issue at hand, where is it going from here? The answer is simple fallow in the footsteps as the predecessors. Do what they couldn't do.
1. Make useful Apps with coexisting big dogs. (Mobile Banking, Food Apps, Hit The Game Sector, GET FLASH.)
2. Efficiency of the apps and the OS itself. HTC is a hardware company that makes the cellphones themselves.
Without Bulking out the phone and design, MAKE THE PHONES FASTER not just physically but optimize the OS. OS optimizing apps were there is barely any RAM memory being saved up because after the app closes it retrieves a temporary Cache of the last used state of the app, if anything wasn't saved. ETC.
2b. Make it a true webOS, make all the skins external where the images and components are driven through a webserver.
I design shitloads of things that might be usefull someday but sometimes when companies lack some thought that might have slipped through the cracks it drives me nuts, because a lot of people suffer losing there jobs and the company falls apart. Motorola saved there ass with the driod which does the same thing as HTC, skin android. Finally there is competition in the same playing field and there creating there own market. HURRAYYY. As for the companies falling behind on the same bandwagon for making smartphones, i say step up your game because this shits going to be a crazy rollercoaster for the cellphone industry.

La Roux - Album Review
The self-titled album of La Roux is fuckin amazing. I highly recommend checking it out, this english duo of voice and synth is a fresh taste of your average synth bands. I got there single (Bulletproof) for free off iTunes a while ago and knew it was a hit. Got the album and didn't expect anything less of extraordinary. It's a journey of tropical psychedelics, this album doesn't have any very slow songs and every song ends up being your favorite. The frontwoman Eleanor Jackson is a year older (1988) than me and has a very soothing voice that can peak every now and then. Even though the band is english Elly is french decent and named the band after her hair "the red-haired one". Defentately get the album it reminds me of MGMT and sleep therapy music :D.
