On the Ajax Web 2.0 bandwagon thingy.

Thursday, November 10th, 2005

Just a quickie to say measure map rocks. I’ve been using this blog stats application for a few days now over at Apple Mad and I’m impressed. It’s so easy to use, delivers all the info a blogger could possibly need and to top it off it’s all wrapped up in a beautiful UI. Excellent job Adaptive Path. Oh and it’s free.

AppleMad pre-beta

Monday, September 26th, 2005

Just for fun I’ve built AppleMad.com an Apple focused news and reviews site. I am opening it’s doors to the public way to early. It’s not tested on a whole heap of browsers and the mark up and CSS are a bit messy (if your geeky enough to look). There is no real content to speak of (I’m on the look out for Apple loving volunteer bloggers for that) and I’m still not completely sure what place it has on the interweb but I’m sure I’ll do my best to make a go of it and give it the time it deserves - more time than I spend here anyway :)

What a truly liberating experience it is to know your target audience and build a site with pixel fonts and min/max-width.

Anyway pop in put the kettle on, have a look around and let me know what you think.

iTunes 5 and iPod nano

Thursday, September 15th, 2005

See what happens when I go away on Holiday. Apple go and release a new iPod and new version of iTunes. I’m not 100% sure about the new iTunes look but the new features are great. The most useful for me has got to be the ability to organise playlists into folders. A simple and much needed feature in my opinion. The new search is also pretty damn good. I just wish they would hurry up and get a G5 powerbook out there. Mmmm I wonder how long it will be before they can make a powerbook as slim as the iPod nano.

Using airport express to charge iPod shuffle

Sunday, April 3rd, 2005

So I went away for the weekend and almost bought myself one of these to keep my iPod shuffle charged so I could rock all weekend. Then I realised that as I had one of these I didn’t need to spend the extra cash. Bonus!
