• Testing out some tools

    Posted on June 6, 2005

    If you can see this it worked, which hopefully means I’ll be releasing some stuff soon. Yes, that’s right, it’s all about the free stuff. Free beer, free speech, free Willy. But mostly free software - in both the beer and speech senses.

  • Cha-Ching!!

    Posted on June 2, 2005

    So you probably didn’t hear it here first, but Feedster has closed a round of funding! Nothing like a little bank to help power through some issues. And things do seem to be powering along. I have no idea if I’m allowed to mention who’s joined up recently, but there... [Read More]

  • Kinesis Keyboard With a PowerBook G4

    Posted on June 1, 2005

    After staying up till 5am this morning trying to get myself a bit caught up on news and various bits of hackery, my hands were killing me this morning. I normally use a funky ergonomic contour keyboard from Kinesis. It’s a complete lifesaver. I can’t live without it apparently. I... [Read More]

  • Craptacular Service

    Posted on May 28, 2005

    While I was fooling around with the Treo last night I sent an MMS over to Russ to test out the setup. Russ is the only person I use MMS with normally, so it’s a good control test for the system. He gets the message no problem, but the reply... [Read More]

  • The Horror! The Horror!

    Posted on May 28, 2005

    I went over to Palm DevCon this past week, and I won the Treo 650 they raffled off! Lucky me, I didn’t have to buy one. Unlucky me, now I don’t have any excuses for not updating my palm software. I didn’t even turn it on till this evening, things... [Read More]

  • Odd Quirk in Bloglines Cache Handling

    Posted on May 27, 2005
