Posting from the Wordpress app for iPhone

I am posting this from the Wordpress for iPhone app! Version 2.1 is great with everything one could want, except one thing.
For some reason, the wordpress app lacks a widescreen mode, which to me is astounding, given that the app is designed for, well… writing.
The blog has been very quiet for some time now as [...]

Getting push replies for Twitter for free

I wanted to get notified on Twitter replies and mentions instantly, both on my Mac and on my iPhone. Since Google released Push for the iPhone a couple of weeks ago, an email based solution would be perfect.
Get Twitter Mentions is a bash script well suited for this task. It is easily customizable and you [...]

Getting push email on the iPhone

The iPhone does some really remarkable things and has some amazing features. One feature I really wanted to get working was push email. Not only for the increased battery performance, but for the reason the Blackberry was given the more descriptive name of Crackberry.

iPhone App: Flight Control

I recently bought Flight Control from the App Store, hoping to find an easy, yet challenging game. I found it.
Flight Control puts you in the air traffic controller spot, and it is your duty to route the various planes and helicopters on a safe landing route. You have to watch out for crossing trajectories, different [...]

Things vs The Hit List vs Omnifocus

I have been using Things for a long time, both on my Mac and iPhone. While being very good at what it does and being visually beautiful, I have lately been having lots of trouble finding a good solution for a “Waiting For” focus, planner, setting a starting date, subtasks and other minor things. Their [...]

There is only one way of describing the Stockholm Twestival which took place last Thursday — a thundering success!
Everything from the organization of the event to the music and speakers were just fantastic. I haven’t heard the official sum of all donations yet though, but I’m sure that it was not bad at all, considering the [...]
