The profile of this Felt Brougham bike (2009) is pretty much how I want my bike to look. A simple and bold color scheme, straight handlebars, and the added bonus of a flip-flop hub for single-speed or fixed riding. At $529, it’s one of the middle-priced bikes bordering on expensive, but it’s still nice.

How to get TwitPic working with TwitterBerry

A lot of people (inlcuding myself) have had lots of problems getting images to upload to TwitPic using the dedicated BlackBerry Twitter client, TwitterBerry. For the longest time now, I’ve just sort of given up on uploading my images to TwitPic and sharing them because I just couldn’t get them to work together. And with no official word of a fix from the developers, the outlook looked pretty grim for those of us wanting to upload to TwitPic using our BlackBerry devices.

Well, after doing quite a bit of research (and I do mean a whole lot), I’ve finally found a solution to the stupid problem.

To get your images to upload to TwitPic using TwitterBerry, all you have to do is change your connection setting from AUTO to TCP. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Open TwitterBerry
  2. Click Menu and then go to ‘Configure’
  3. Change the option for ‘Connection Mode’ to TCP
  4. Save changes

That should fix it! I’m having absolutely no problem now uploading pictures to TwitPic. FINALLY!
