OK, I admit it … I kind of like Siri on my iPhone. Some of the features are darn right useful … being able to tell the phone to remind me about something based on location, get the current weather, send a text message by voice, etc. Recently I found a case that Siri seems …

Android Gripes
OK, I’ve had this phone a few weeks … time for me to list some of the things that I don’t like about it. First a caveat … in general I do like this phone a lot. Some of the things I’m about to list are possibly due to policies imposed by the mail services …

And Now I’m a Droid
Android … to be specific. I decided it was time to upgrade my phone … and switched to an Android based phone. I got a Motorola ATRIX. I was split between the ATRIX and the HTC Inspire … the Inspire has better battery life and a bigger screen, but the ATRIX has expandable memory and …

I’ve encountered a weird error in WordPress … for some reason, when a post is submitted using the XML-RPC api (which is used by the WordPress iPhone app), any leading ‘<’ symbols on the HTML is being stripped out. Ginny noticed this a few days ago and I just confirmed it on a test blog. …

iPhone for WordPress
This post is being written with the WordPress app for iPhone. As expected, it’s pretty awkward to use, but functional. Documentation is non-existent … but that’s coming, according to the announcement post. Decent integration with the camera & photo roll, although there doesn’t appear to be a way to position the pictures. Can’t see a …
