Recently, we reviewed some of the useful browsers for Android. Even though we tried our best to be comprehensive, we still missed out on a few gems. And thanks to all of you who commented, we have uncovered another gem – xScope browser.
At first glance, I didn’t think xScope was anything noteworthy. It has a plain icon and unattractive interface. Anyone who are casually browsing the market can easily give it a miss. However, after using it, I began to like it. While the main features are similar to all other browsers, the subtle thing in the browser are what set itself apart from the rest.

It’s not likely any more little guys could join a game with players like that, right?

I’ve just watched a beautiful animation titled “The Secret of Kells”. I’m not going to spoil anything by telling you the story here, but I can tell you that the movie described how hard the process of writing a book was back in the middle age. It required top notch craftsmanship to write each and every word and to illustrate each page by hand. It took two generations to finish “just” one book.
When we compare that condition with what we have here today; with computers, word processors, smart phones, internet and all the modern technologies (and without the barbaric Vikings lurking in the dark); we should feel so lucky. Moreover, with the help of Simplenote, you could set up a multi platform writing environment that you can use to write, continue, and finish your book(s) anytime, anywhere and using any available devices at hand.
