Good Stuff Happens in 1:1 Meetings: Why you need them and how to do them well
The Windows Phone Over BlackBerry OS
1. The Windows Phone Over
BlackBerry OS
BlackBerry hasn’t been at
the top lately. That’s mainly
because of bad
management decisions,
such as the direction of the
company, and the actual
products they put out. In
the end, the smartphone
speaks for itself. If it doesn’t
deliver a great experience,
then it’s not going to be a
hit.
Sadly, this is the case with BlackBerry. Right now, they’re posting
consecutive loses every quarter compared to a few years before,
when they were on the rise. You should probably sell your
BlackBerry now and get cash from your used electronics because
things are going to look a bit different from now on.

2. Sadly, this is the case with BlackBerry. Right now, they’re posting
consecutive loses every quarter compared to a few years before,
when they were on the rise. You should probably sell your
BlackBerry now and get cash from your used electronicsbecause
things are going to look a bit different from now on.
If you’ve decided on selling your BlackBerry, where do you turn
to? The Android and iOS software look pretty similar. Here comes
your savior – Windows. Yes, just like BlackBerry OS, Windows
Phone is a unique OS different from the rest. If you want to look
unique despite switching brands, then a Windows Phone is a
good choice.
So what are its core features?
Refreshing User Interface
The latest version of Windows Phone, 7.5 Mango, features an
interface that’s very refreshing to use. For example, you’re
greeted by Live Tiles at the start screen. From there, you’ll be
able to access apps, contacts and other stuff you wish to pin.
What makes the tiles ‘live’ is that information is constantly
updated. For example, you can pin your email inbox into Live
Tiles and you’ll see any unopened emails you have. The same
goes for messages, Facebook notifications and other stuff.
As mentioned, you’ll be able to pin contacts for easy texting. Even
links of websites can be pinned!

3. Bing
Microsoft’s Bing is more than a search engine – it makes your life
easier! Bing is deeply integrated into the software. It has built in
purposes, such as a barcode scanner.
With the barcode scanner, you’ll be able to quickly pull up
information from the Internet about the product in question. You
can also quickly search for restaurants and other events
happening in your area. Of course, GPS is supported.
Aside from that, you get to the usual search features, which are
integral to Windows.
Social Network Integration
Today’s culture demands that we have Facebook and Twitter and
Mango provides exactly that.
Three social networks – Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn are all
integrated into the software. That means you’ll be able to update
your status right from your phone, no downloading of apps
needed!
What’s more, the contacts you have on your phone will also
automatically update their profile whenever a Facebook friend of
yours posts pictures.
Cool Apps
Windows Phone is home to plenty of cool apps that will surely get
your attention. Aside from that, you have access to an abundance
of games – something BlackBerry is sorely lacking.

OS. Since they’re experienced in creating an amazing user
interface, you’ll definitely get your money’s worth with a Windows
Phone.

Microsoft’s software.
