President elections in Russia

I’m quite sure Putin-endorsed candidate, Dmitry Medvedev, will win the upcoming presidential elections in Russia, but if you want to follow results — even if it’s just for the stats — you will be able to get them via SMS. In order to do so, all you have to do is send request to number 5503, and you’re good to do.

It doesn’t matter which Russian mobile operator’s services you’re using — beginning from 9 p.m. Moscow time March 2nd, preliminary information regarding the number of votes collected by each candidate will be reach you, no matter you are.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.

The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
