"When typing in Japanese, your iPhone uses names and readings from your address book as a kind of second dictionary for its text auto-complete. This was a very smart way to program the iPhone since the most common reason to use non-standard kanji/words to begin with is because they're used that way in a proper name (which, if it's someone/someplace/somewhere you know, would probably be in your address book anyway)."
"not every iPhone application can "learn" words. Notes seems to be brain-dead in that regard. At the same time, using Safari's Google text entry field worked every time, expanding the database and adding new items to my keyboard dictionary. "
"I previously wrote about an iPhone app called 辞書登録Lite (Jisho Tōroku) which allowed you to add words to the iPhone's Japanese dictionary and determine what yomigana input would trigger the kanji conversion. "
Every couple of years, a hot new electronic device comes along that promises to transform education, if not life in general, and a few colleges give one to every new student. In the 90s, it was laptops. Three years ago, Duke University tried an iPod giveaway. And last month, Abilene Christian University announced that it would give every new student an iPhone (or an iPod Touch, which can connect to the Internet via a campus or other wireless network).

"Ipadio technology links up the telephone networks with the internet, enabling the live broadcast of audio directly to the internet… all from a standard phone. There's never been an easier way to record oral assessments, create revision podcasts, or even collect homework. The process involves a simple registration of your phone and the selection of a password. You are then given a toll free number to call, enter the password, and start recording. Your recording is instantly available as a phlog (phone blog) on your own channel at Ipadio. Don't have the cell phone you registered with Ipadio. There is an easy solution, just use any phone and complete the additional step of entering your registered phone number. After the recording you can visit your own channel and listen to the phlog, email it, embed it in a web page, or even download it as an mp3 to be used in your own multimedia application. You even have the opportunity to edit your phlog and make it public. Ipadio even converts the spoken words to text! Imagine the educational uses of that features. There is even an iPhone and Android app."
