  • Game Center for the iPhone is all very nice

    and looks lovely and everything, but what would be really good would be if they had launched with at least one game ready for people to play. Maybe that’s just me though. EDIT: Tell a lie, apparently Ms. Pac-Man works with it. Doesn’t point that out in Game Center itself though, which would have been…

  • Drop

    I dropped my iPhone on the floor this morning. It is fine, I’m typing on it now. What occurred to me though was how underworried I was that it would be okay. I have dropped it before, on harder surfaces, and it was fine. I’ve got insurance. And it is close to being due for…

  • iPhone 3.0 – First Impressions

    Well, I’ve been running the new iPhone 3.0 software update for a whole 3 hours now. What have I learned thus far? Firstly, it is that Apple can’t handle everyone updating their phones at once.

  • On the bus

    So I can now write blog posts on the way to work. The iPhone is truly a thing of wonderment. Every day I seem to find something new for it that can potentially damage my productivity slightly. It also is helping to up my social status. Yesterday I filled out a survey online about my…

  • A couple of tips for iTunes playlists

    So I guess now is the time to mention I’ve got an iMac and an iPhone now. I’m loving both of them, so glad I got them. Having done so, it meant it was time to return to using iTunes, which I hadn’t been for a couple of years, whilst all my computers were mainly…

  • Tonchidot – How to really using tagging on mobile devices

    Tonchidot were one of the most popular presentations at the recent TechCrunch50 conference. They are developing an application for the iPhone to provide live tags for everything you can see through your camera. Whilst it’s maybe not ready or achievable just yet, it is a fantastic glimpse of what could be possible in the very…
