2009-03-30T21:46:00.000+02:00

My new blog is up and running. Here I will keep a more professional approach to blogging ;)

http://www.jontesays.com/

Quite a few blog entries to be written... at least a have some drafts and topics.

Here we go again, competencebuilder.net

2009-03-07T21:04:00.001+01:00

Yet another site using Google App Engine was uploaded today.
http://www.competencebuilder.net

This site will be a minimalistic Q and A site with the vision to be everything that http://www.experts-exchange.com is not.

No hiding of answers before signing up for an account
No banner to text ration over 10 ;)

But

Answers always next to the questions
Minimal amount of banners, text only from Google Adsense
Later on the the questions/answers page will show the authors own Adsense banners. Hopefully this will motivate people to write good questions and answers

Spotify Premium - One Month Later - A Short Review

2008-11-28T10:23:00.000+01:00

One month ago I signed up for a premium Spotify account. At work I use it more or less all the time. The possibility to change to whatever music you like at the moment is GREAT!

The UI need some improvements, but it's quick and the most important things is that the music streaming really works. I can't remember ANY downtime, and not that many records/artists I have searched for have not been found. Please Spotify, add Rammstein records will ya ;) not only their songs in compilations.

Like it, like it alot!

And finally, Spotify!! Please make me a iPhone beta tester ;)

Go Spotify Go!!! - iPhone Version In Beta Test

2008-11-20T13:11:00.002+01:00

I really really want to be one of the selected few testers for the Spotify iPhone client.

The premium subscription I have today i really nice!! A iPhone client should really be a killer.

UserGroups.Nu alive, iPhone FAQ in the making

2008-08-25T22:27:00.000+02:00

Finally I managed to get my FAQ and Usergroup site alive and kicking.
http://UserGroups.Nu

Initially I will start to populate the iPhone FAQ, but later on more sections will be added.

iPhone Mail - Please add "widescreen mode"

2008-08-21T20:25:00.000+02:00

One of the few bad things about the mail client in the iPhone is that, unlike Safari, you can not tilt the phone to get widescreen mode.

Since the text is jus a bit larger in widescreen by default this would be exceptional good for reading my many html mail. No mostly I have to first zoom some to get a proper text-size.

Hopefully this is a upcoming feature in the early software updates for iPhone.
Please Apple, please ;)

Super

Could be better:

iPhone Maps Most Wanted Feature: Export Bookmarks

2008-08-19T13:17:00.002+02:00

I should really like to export my bookmarks (pins) from iPhone Maps.
Do I really need to buy a 3rd party GPS/Map application to be able to use my locations outside iPhone?

Successfully updated to iPhone 2.02

2008-08-19T10:45:00.000+02:00

No major changes what I can see.
Some early reports that the UI is quicker, and that the typing lag is improved.

Let's see about that.

Does iPhone Microsoft Exchange Sync Drain The Battery?

2008-08-14T07:36:00.007+02:00

There seems to be a well known issue with the Exchange mail sync in iPhone.

At least on my iPhone the battery time is reduced by more than half when I activate the Microsoft Exchange synchronization. I'll try to find more information on this today...
