Taking a Screenshot In ICS

When I first upgraded to Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich, I could'nt figure out how to take a screenshot of the screen. Some of you might encounter this anomaly so i am posting the method to take screenshot in Ice Cream Sandwich. Unlike gingerbread, you don't have any option of screenshot in the menu that appears on long pressing of the lock key.

Google Blogger Application

This is droid testers first blog post and i decided to cover the google blogger app on google playstore. The app has suffered a lot of criticism so i decided to find out.

To serve the purpose, i decided to create this blog post using the blogger app so i am keeping it nice and short.

First impression of the app shows basic options for new posts, already created posts, view blog and settings.

While creating posts there are no formatting options like bold and italic. Also you can create links. You can create posts, save them and post them later.

There is no way you can place an image. It automatically seems to appear at the end of post. This was really wierd.

The app was not only short on features but i encountered some crashes. No autosave feature made it worse.

So, overall the app is only a very basic app and i would definitely not use it for creating professional blog posts.
