Testing out a mobile wordpress admin for the iPhone. It works almost flawlessly for all simple features like writing posts, managing comments and such.
Its also fairly quick, which is nice because this 1gen iPhone is slow as hell on edge.
Update: really handy to edit tags/categories as well.
I found myself without my iPhone headphones this morning, in a rush to get to work. I would have simply used one of the two dozen pairs I’ve accumulated over the years, if Apple wasn’t such a proprietary whore.
So, I was forced to take the commute to and from work with no music. While it was painful to be without music for 2 hours of public transportation, I learned a few interesting things:
For those of you not in the know, Newegg is one of the better places to order tech gear online. Not only are their prices extremely competitive, but their shipping times are flat out rediculous.
Last Wednesday for my fathers birthday, I bought him a 4GB Memory Stick for his camera, selecting standard 3-5 day shipping. I ordered it at 3:33pm, and somehow, that flash card got to his door by noon the next day. It’s physically impossible to process an order, pack it, ship it, AND deliver it to someone’s door in less than 24 hours.
The only option? Time travel. Newegg must have harnessed a nearby wormhole, and thrown that baby 2 days into the past. It’s the only logical scenario.
Needless to say, giving consumers the option for next day, or priority shipping now seems moot, since they’ve invented a way to deliver gear to people before they even know they need it…
