Clipping to Evernote from iPhone Safari Browser

Jan 17, 2010 18:16 -

One of my favourite tools is Evernote, the note taking application. I regularly find snippets of information on the internet that I want to retain and come back to later. Evernote provides a number of tools that sit in the browser allowing you to clip directly to your account. This is enormously helpful and […]

Top tech of 2009

Jan 7, 2010 18:52 -

For the last few years Michael Arrington has been producing a list of the top tech that he has regularly used in each year and I thought this year I would give it a go. So this is the technology that I used day-in, day-out in 2009 and could not do without.

The Gadget Show Apps

Oct 15, 2009 13:38 -

On the Gadget Show this week they had an interesting challenge. Suzy and Jason were pitted against each other to produce an application for a mobile device. The winner would be the one that got the most downloads.
After almost 30 seconds of deliberation they both chose to develop an application for the iPhone, simply because […]

WifiPhoto for iPhone

Oct 8, 2009 15:49 -

Getting pictures off an iPhone can be a bind, particularly if you don’t have a sync cable to hand. The most reliable way is to email yourself the pictures but if you do this directly from the Photo app it reduces the size of your pictures. The only way round this is to cut and […]

Aug 28, 2009 11:35 -

I have been using Unfuddle for a while now with a number of my clients. To quote Unfuddle themselves it is a “secure, hosted project management solution for software development teams.”
Depending on your level of membership, which start at free, you get ticketing, time tracking, messages, subversion or git hosting, notebooks and milestone tracking. […]

Simple Mind for the iPhone

Jul 21, 2009 15:43 -

I attended an event today, hosted by the Thames Valley Innovation and Growth team, on developing iPhone applications. A couple of Apple employees were on hand to walk us through the process and answer any questions.
When I have attended these sort of events in the past I have tended to take notes in my […]

iPhone 3.1 Software

Jul 1, 2009 14:31 -

Well that was quick. The iPhone 3.0 OS has been out less than a month and already the next version is released to beta testers. There is a slew of changes that have been identified so far and to be honest pretty much all of them are of only passing interest. With the exception […]

Schmap – online destination guides

Jun 20, 2009 17:01 -

Schmap is a great online destination guide that allows you to explore a city or area and find the best things to see and do. I have used the application on my iPhone in the past and intend to use it when I am on holiday in Australia later in the year.
I was surprised and […]

Apple iPhone Economics

Jun 12, 2009 8:54 -

So the waiting is finally over the new iPhone has been announced and in a weeks time you could have one in your hands. Come the day of the announcement pretty much everything new about the device had leaked out and so there were little surprises: compass, tethering, video and MMS to name but a […]

Slingbox for iPhone

Jun 8, 2009 20:59 -

I’ve had a Slingbox at home for a while now and it allows me to watch my home TV not matter where I am in the world. Having also got a Tivo it also allows me to catch-up on TV that I might have missed. To date this has all been from the client on […]
