Unlike listening to music which doesn’t require paying much attention, for Podcasts missing an important 5 seconds due to a loud motorbike passing by is critical. I find myself grabbing the phone from pockets and tapping the screen to rewind so stupid, I was sure there must be better way to do it, and here is the tip: using iPhone earphones control to do it!

• Double click and hold down the middle button to fast forward, 10 seconds each jump.
• Triple click and hold down the middle button to rewind, 10 seconds each jump.

This also works for other audios like music.

The Photo: Apple 2005-2013

2005. I was still in college. The phone I had was just a “pure” phone to call and text people, and even didn’t have a camera.

2013. Now I have Macbook, iPhone, iPad, Kindle, all “rich” devices. With 3G network I can connect to Internet anytime anywhere. Life’s been changed so much.

The Video: Samsung GALAXY S4

I never had a Samsung GALAXY phone, but after watched this video I was surprised by some of the new features. I’ve been using iPhone for 3 or 4 years, I’m so used to it and sometimes it makes me blind to see other innovations.

The video is 4:30 long, please take a look when you have time.

Update

If you already upgraded to Moutain Lion OSX, you definetly don’t need this, there is a navtive Reminder app built in :)
