Talented People.

The world is full of talented people – its sometimes easy to forget – I think I am going to try and post once a week on little known talented people I come across, because some people in life just don’t get the credit they deserve. The first is Zac Cranko – a name I [...]

BBC iPlayer

 I really like many of the series that are available on the iPlayer, but really annoyingly sometimes things are incomplete – Judge John Deed only has 4 episodes, Redcap only has one episode. I know of course this is to do with specific regions, I am in Sweden and what you see in the uk [...]

The Death Of Zombie Cafe

Today I am uninstalling zombie cafe on the iPad – for a little while there it was a fairly fun game but now its just got a bit boring. The aim of the game is to built a cafe with the best equipment, to run through the 30 odd levels and occasionally raid your friends [...]

Siri and god.

So a friend of mine brought his wife an iPhone 4S as an early xmas present and he was showing it to me. I went straight to SIri and started asking questions – on the whole it did well but it doesn’t have location services so if you ask where something is it can be [...]

A surprising feature in QuickTime For MacOS

I found this by accident the other day when messing around with quicktime –  you can use it to record screencasts. At a high resolution its creating quite big files but i may actually do one anyway. I created my blogsite logo this evening and am quite pleased with it although the process is fairly [...]

Blogsy

They have updated blogsy, the iPad app I use for blogging and it’s rather cool. The only complaint I had about it before was that you couldn’t edit text in the designer – you had to go to HTML mode to do it. Now they have fixed it.    In other news I recently posted [...]
