How to: Send an “I am running late” message from Windows Phone

February 11, 2012 Leave a comment

If you have an appointment in your Windows 7 phone and you are running late, then you can quickly send an message to the people invited to the meeting by stating the following:

I’ll be a bit late.  but I’m on my way.  See you soon.

Here is how you can do this with the Windows Phone.

Go to the Calendar then Agenda view and select the meeting you are going to send the “I am running late” message.  At the bottom of the screen you will see an icon of a man running to the right.  Select that icon and the email will pop up and have the Address, To, From, Subject, and Message all filled in for you.  You just have to select the Send button and that’s it.

Notepad++ my Preferred Programming Notepad

If you have not tried Notepad++ in about a year, you will be surprised of how it has changed.

If you have not tried Notepad++ you should.  We here at 1-800-The-Nerd feel that it very rich in its ability to edit all types of documents.

Help system is very clear and its index is very nice.

Introduction

I was reading some articles this weekend regarding the new TouchPad by Hewlett-Packard due out this summer, and I got some statistics regarding how many apps Apple and Android have.

Here is the breakdown…

Apple has over 300,000 apps that can be played on the iPhone or iPad.

Android has over 100,000 apps that are for the Android phone.

Hewlett-Packard is trying to get developers for their WebOS platform which runs on their phones and soon to be released TouchPad.

But, the most interesting news is that Microsoft has over 150,000 registered developers for the Windows Phone 7 (WP7).  Which means that If each of the developers wrote one program, they would surpass the Hewlett-Packard and Android market for available apps.  

Get ready everyone, the Windows Phone 7 wave of apps are coming!
