Throughout the years, Smartphone & Pocket PC magazine has attracted some very knowledge people who contribute an incredible amount of time judging our Best Software awards, moderating our forums, and writing articles for us. In fact, we receive so many excellent articles that we're not able to publish them all. We created the Smartphone & Pocket PC magazine blogs as a place where our frequent contributors can share additional content with our readers on a daily basis. Special thanks goes to Werner Ruotsalainen (a.k.a. "Menneisyys"), who has been posting on our forums and other Web sites for years. As you'll soon discover, Werner is the most prolific member of our blogs, and his posts are detailed, well researched, and incredibly useful.
