Twinkle, Best iPhone App???

May 15 by Michael Benner

Lately I have been using Twitter(refriedchicken) a lot more and it is all thanks to Twinkle. For those that have an "open" iPhone you must download Twinkle. Not only can I post my pictures and updates I can find people locally that also use Twinkle.

Locally, that reminds me. I like Brightkite.com (if you want an invite leave a comment)

AT&T Sucks, But I Love Them So...

Dec 1 by Michael Benner

"He just said the f-word to the AT&T lady" was all I heard from the other room when I realized I was pretty angry (it takes alot to get me that fired up) with AT&T and the customer service rep was getting the brunt of it. You see

As I sit here watching some clients play Halo 2, while I make some edits to their web app, I am reminded of somethings I have been using/doing lately and have failed to post. Sony Remote Play, Joost, iTunes, and catching up on some movies.

.AT&T requested this for iPhones on their network, I just can't believe Apple said ok...

Another Format War?

Sep 5 by Michael Benner

Way back in the day I remember a jumble of cables and boxes stacked on top of our TV. There was a dial for rotating the antenna on the roof, a box with the work "ON" written on it, another box with "Z TV" and even one that said, "HBO". What was interesting is that they where just switches that you flipped and boom a movie (usually already running) was on your TV.

This was the beginning of cable TV, except only one channel per box. Over time there were mergers and acquisitions and of course, no one remembers the others and everyone knows HBO.

BlogCFC, Spry and iPhone

Jul 16 by Michael Benner

Unbelievable. iSafari (my name for Safari on the iPhone) does not work with BlogCFC. Now, I am going to make a great assumption here and say that it is because of Ray's implementation of Spry and that it is Spry that is causing this problem.

But until I get a chance to figure out if this is indeed the case and can find a work around don't try post articles to blogCFC from your iPhone in the Houston Airport when you plane has been struck by lightning and is being checked for air worthiness.
