- iWPhone: WordPress plugin renders for iPhone
Filed under: iPod Family, Cool tools, Blogging, Internet, Internet Tools, Blogs, iPhone
I run my personal site using WordPress, and one reason I like using it so much is that (although this is hardly exclusive to WordPress as a content manager) is all the great plugins available for it. On another site I ran under WordPress, I loved using the WP-Print plugin-- it automatically creates a "printable" version of each page on your site. All of the printer compatibility, none of the actual work.
And now, someone's cooked up an iPhone version of that same plugin, where you simply install the WP plugin on your blog (for WordPress 2.2.1), and instantly you can see all your posts formatted specifically for the iPhone. Instead of creating a whole other, "mobile" version of your site, you can simply put in this plugin, and you can get a link that will reformat your content for the iPhone or iPod touch. Very excellent.
If you run a WordPress blog or site and were thinking about creating a version of it for the iPhone or iPod touch, your work is done. Download the iWPhone plugin from Content.Robot, install it, and you're set.
Thanks, Philapple!Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:
http://www.tuaw.com/2007/10/12/iwphone-wordpress-plugin-renders-for-iphone/#comments - iPhone wins awards, will win a lot more before 2008
Filed under: Analysis / Opinion, Cool tools, Apple, iPhone
We're getting closer and closer to the end of the year, and that means it's almost time for everyone to announce their "best tech product of the year" awards. Gadget website T3 has gotten an early start, and not surprisingly, Apple walked all over everyone else, with the iPhone grabbing tons of awards, and iTunes and the MacBook Pro picking up a few more.
Which means: get ready, because the iPhone is going to pretty much win every award imaginable for 2007. What else came out this year that came even close to moving gadget technology ahead? As predicted, it sold tons of units, captured the nation's imagination at launch, singlehandedly pushed cell phones ahead light years (even while bringing some harsh light to Apple's closed architecture policy), and just generally changed the world of gadgets. Is there any other product released in 2007 that could really be called "Gadget of the Year"?
I'd think not. The Wii is awesome and all, but my guess is as these end of the year awards come out, even Nintendo's little marvel of an input device demo won't hold a candle to Apple's communications device.

Filed under: Humor, iPod Family
Down at Target, the iPods they sell
Aren't always what's seen on the shell
One poor mother got socked
Her two iPods were rocked
And her daughter was P.O.'ed as well.
Still, who knew that this product was real
For just $0.99, such a steal?
Go on, turn down the treble
And unbox your iPebble
Enjoy Apple's new grey look & feel.

Filed under: iPod Family
I will admit that I don't really get why anyone would want a stand alone speaker system for their iPod or iPhone, but I know some folks do. If you're one of those people, and you enjoy wood grain then the Vers 2X is for you. This attractive iPod speaker system is hand crafted from wood and includes more iPod adapters then you can shake a stick at and 2 15 watt speakers.
The Vers 2X will set you back $179.

I have a fresh new iPod touch at my side and will step you through the entire jailbreak process along with my reactions, failures and possible complete public humiliation.

Filed under: Analysis / Opinion, Software, Cool tools, Hacks, How-tos, Productivity
Saul Rosenbaum sent us the tip on this one, and he points out that we're a little "Quicksilver centric" around here at TUAW. He's right, we do love Quicksilver, but it's not the only launcher on the block. Launchbar is another good one (and actually, I've been playing with Sapiens a lot lately, so look for a post on that one soon, too).
If replacing Finder with Quicksilver isn't your thing, maybe running GTD apps with Launchbar is more up your alley. Saul has a short writeup on how to get Launchbar running a trigger (he uses "TD") that you can throw short notes into to work with the GTD system. It's a simple process-- since Launchbar already supports shell scripts, you can create a script, hook Lauchbar up to it, and pretty soon you're taking down tasks and notes at a moment's notice.Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:

Filed under: .Mac
Merlin Mann at 43Folders wants to know how you keep your Macs in sync (other than dot Mac, of course. That's the obvious choice).
Are you using a custom-built solution, commercial products or a combination? I use this combination:
- iDisk for files. Any "reference" material I may want access to - documents for a project, receipts, confirmation emails, etc. - live on my iDisk. I've created a folder called "Reference," which in turn contains 26 sub-folders, labeled "A" through "Z" for simple alphabetical filing.
- Google Firefox browser sync handles my web bookmark synchronization. It's worked flawlessly since day one, which is a lot more than I can say for .Mac bookmark sync. All that's required is Firefox and a few minutes time for the initial upload to Google's servers.
- Highrise by 37signals manages my contact information, as well as conversations I want to save or that need follow-up. It's a terrific tool.

Filed under: Software
Today is rapidly turning into Color Blindness awareness day here at TUAW. Earlier I told you about Sim Daltonism, which creates a little panel in which you can simulate how something would look viewed by various types of color blindness, and now we have Color Oracle.
Pixel pointed it out to me in the comments, and so I took a gander at it. Unlike Sim Daltonism, Color Oracle simulates the effect of color blindness on your whole screen. Simply click on the menubar item (or use a hot key) and all the colors on your screen are shifted. Click any where and they are back to normal. Pretty neat little application, and the icon (seen to the right) is very cool indeed (it brings back memories of not being able to tell what number was supposed to be in those dots).
Color Oracle is free, and requires OS X 10.3.9 or higher.Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:

Looks like those Ambrosia Guys have made a break-through. This video shows their iToner utility working with the iPhone 1.1.1 firmware. iToner, as you may already know, allows you to install third-party ringtones onto your iPhone. So you can either use your personal audio collection or record your Mom saying "Pick up the phone!" and play that whenever she calls.
The 111-compatible update to iToner is still in beta but as this video shows, it should be arriving soon.

Universal Music is desperate for Apple to face some real competition in the digital music download arena that it is now trying to work with the other record labels to launch their very own iTunes like store. The twist? Universal would like to see hardware manufacturers pay a fee (something like $5) for each device. That device would then have a free, to the consumer, subscription to the label's music service. Universal figures people will be happy because they can get the music they want on their player they want (as long as it isn't an iPod), the hardware manufacturers will be happy because people won't be buying iPods, and the labels will be happy because they can maintain their vise-like grip on the content their artists produce.
How can anything go wrong?

Filed under: Apple Corporate
It's official: Apple's board of directors now has a shiny new certificate to pin up over by the coffee machine, between the volleyball game announcement and the worker's-comp sign. Board member Albert Gore, Jr., who had some government gig before he won an Oscar, is a co-laureate (with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) of the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize, honoring his work in climate awareness.
TUAW extends congratulations to Mr. Gore and to the Apple board, who now have a much better shot at getting the Dalai Lama and Nelson Mandela to endorse the iPod and Leopard.
Update: Apple's home page currently shows a tribute to Al Gore, and Apple is "bursting with pride." Picture if you read on. [thanks Martijn]Continue reading Apple boardroom now includes special "Nobel laureate" chair
