Brad Linder — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 16:08:26 +0000

Chip-maker Freescale wants to know who your favorite mobile tech journalists or bloggers are. For the second year in the row, I've made the top 20 list, but unlike in 2011, this year Freescale is giving out just 5 awards. If you appreciate the mobile device coverage you've read on Liliputing over the last few years, you can vote for...

Tech bloggers of CES 2012 (USB flash drive giveaway)

Brad Linder — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 22:00:30 +0000

There are two things that happen every year when I'm at CES, regardless of the mobile devices on display: I run into mobile tech bloggers from around the world unexpectedly, often without even trying. I pick up way more USB flash drives than I know what to do with, since companies love to put their press kits on USB sticks...

Liliputing 2011 year in review

Brad Linder — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 15:00:46 +0000

2011 may go down in the history books as the year of the Android tablet... but for Liliputing it was clearly the year when people tried to pick up cheap HP TouchPad tablets running webOS software and hack them to run Google Android. When I decided to take a look at the articles that have generated the most traffic over...

What would you like to see more of on Liliputing?

Brad Linder — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 21:00:36 +0000

Earlier this year Liliputing quietly celebrated its third birthday. Mobile technology has changed a lot since we started writing about affordable portable computers in 2008. The cost of personal computing devices has come down, netbooks have started to share the spotlight with tablets (to put it kindly), and the line between smartphones, tablets and laptop and desktop computers has gotten...

Brad Linder — Fri, 03 Jun 2011 04:28:34 +0000

I'm on the way home from our reader meetup with the folks from Netshelter, Samsung, Android Central, and Phandroid, and I just wanted to thank everyone who came out. I got a chance to meet some great people, play with some great gadgets, and help give away a few goodies. I seriously lost count of the number of phones and...

Most popular Liliputing posts of 2010

Brad Linder — Fri, 31 Dec 2010 20:00:15 +0000

As the year draws to a close, it seems like as good a time to look back and see some of the changes in the mobile computing space. While netbooks were hot news in 2008 and 2009, 2010 largely became the year of the tablet -- or rather the year of the iPad and dozens of other companies promising to...

Notice anything different?

Brad Linder — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 23:28:03 +0000

I'm hoping the answer is no. I'm making some changes to Liliputing's server tonight and if all goes according to plan you shouldn't notice anything different -- except hopefully pages will start loading a little faster soon. But if you notice anything broken, please hit the contact button and let me know.

Technical difficulties

Brad Linder — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 16:24:52 +0000

You may have noticed that Liliputing was down for a few hours this morning. After pulling my hair out trying to get to the bottom of things, it turns out that the Disqus comment plugin was causing some problems, so I've temporarily disabled it. That means the comment form won't be as pretty as usual for a little while, but...

Mobiputing on the radio (or err… podcast)

Brad Linder — Mon, 31 May 2010 20:51:02 +0000

While the Computex trade show in Taiwan is at the center of the mobile tech world this week, Google has kind of dominated the headlines for the past few weeks with announcements about Android 2.2 Froyo, Google TV, and other tech. This week I spoke with Saul Kropman of the Digital Edge podcast to discuss the Google v. Apple approach...

Letting the Liliputing Forums fade into that good night

Brad Linder — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 13:10:34 +0000

I've been publishing news, reviews, and all sorts of information at Liliputing for a little over two years. In that time, you've been an important part of the conversation. Users have left tens of thousands of comments with their thoughts, suggestions, corrections, and more. Without Liliputing's awesome readers, I wouldn't be able to do what I do. To build on...

Introducing mobiputing: Smartphone apps, tips, and news

Brad Linder — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 22:49:17 +0000

I wanted to take a moment to let you know about a new web site I've just launched, called mobiputing. As you can probably guess from the name, mobiputing is and will continue to be a sister site to Liliputing. But while Liliputing is focused on netbooks and mobile computing hardware and software generally, my aim with mobiputing is to...
