Maybe it’s not a secret. Something happened this week that totally amazed me. We went to Stephanie’s “Mrs. Oklahoma” pageant (she WON!) and I took about 50 pictures. When I got home, I shrunk them a little, then threw them into a zip file. Windows zip, nothing strange. Two people who got the pictures had issues. One, with an Iphone, could not unzip the file. Iphone won’t do that. The other person couldn’t view the zip file at all, so I referred them to a winrar download.

Well, I forgot to send them to Brenda so she could have them. So, I sent the same file to Brenda’s email. Lo and behold, about a minute later she comments on the pictures – from the recliner. Apparently Blackberry will view the contents of Windows zip files with no effort at all! She’s using a 9000 with the 4. something operating system so this should not be a question for anybody with a Blackberry.

Amazed I am. It’s the little things that make the Blackberry world go ’round.
