I am new to all this app technology stuff! But I am slowly discovering apps on my phone - what is your favourite & why? Is it a game? Does it distort photos & make you giggle? Is it a voice changer? Let me know so I can see if I'm missing out on anything!

I spent most of last night trying to upload a file to youtube without success. I have used youtube to upload maybe a dozen shorter (1-3 mins) clips to the forum but last night was just not working. The file is about 370MB just over 4 mins so well within their limits. The upload progress shoots up to somewhere between 25-59% and then sits there, not even creeping up slowly. ONCE it did complete and then sat there 'processing' for two hours and the 'processing complete' bar still sat at 0% so I gave up for the night. Any ideas? I would like to have another go at this tonight after work if anyone can help

We got any twitter users here? I love twitter, it's about the only social network I like these days (because it's "social" in that, you can actually make friends on there), and facebook sucks. I'm @TreyRust on there if you're all so inclined... And if you're not on twitter, get on that! I'll be waiting... watching... Trey.

I've got a new phone running on android, I was wondering if there's any forum software so I can get back on here, as with the better weather i've been out in the garden and on walks with Nikita. The web browser on Android is fine for general browsing but far from ideal for coming on the forum. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
