Re: How many smartphones did you buy in 2014?

Daniel W. — Sat, 27 Dec 2014 13:40:30 -0000

17! The latest being a second gen moto x that I'm planning to stick with. Tried a number of androids and the iPhone 6 Plus and ended up having issues with them all.

Re: Qi Internal Wireless Charging Adapter for Samsung Galaxy S5

Daniel W. — Wed, 30 Apr 2014 13:44:25 -0000

Does this affect the waterproofing on the s5 at all? I know there's a disclaimer about the NFC interference, but I'm more concerned about the rubber seal being disrupted...

Hi, any idea of when these are likely to arrive in stock?

Cheers.

Keep it up! It'll be interesting to see what effect it has over the next few weeks. Just make sure you don't decide to fast on a kebab day, yes?

Seeing as my iPhone is starting to get on my norks, this would be just the ticket...

"The never clam sea of Apple rumors"- I know, right? What do Apple have against those clams?

Re: Is Apple’s iMessage the start of something bigger?

Daniel W. — Fri, 08 Jul 2011 10:59:18 -0000

Does iMessage sync your SMS messages over to the iPad? To me, that's bigger than yet another social network. Palm WebOS style "reply anywhere" functionality would be a welcome addition.

Re: Did Apple Just Use the iOS Kill Switch? – [Update: No]

Still on my iPhone, still in iTunes. Yes, it's gone from the App Store, but their email suggests people were having problems. I got the same one when I asked them.
That said, even on the iPhone 4 it's working fine for me, so I'm not sure what's up.

That sounds like a great solution to me.

Good job Tom. I tested the version you sent over last night and it looks great. I just need to find time to configure all the feeds properly.

Re: TwitterFon’s iPhone app is broken. Here’s the hack to fix it

Daniel W. — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 09:23:29 -0000

"I still definitely recommend it over any of the other iPhone Twitter apps out there"

Have you tried Tweetie? Knocks Twitterfon into a cocked hat in my humble opinion. The best iPhone Twitter app available.

Re: Tips to Optimize iPhone 3G (Firmware 2.0) for Battery Longevity!

Daniel W. — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 06:27:45 -0000

I do find it amazing how many people slate the iPhone's battery life while doing constant gps-enabled twitter updates, having push email delivered, and reading a number of RSS feeds throughout the day! Seriously: if you're going to use the features, you're going to use the battery!

I think of it like this: the iPhone lets you do an awful lot of things you may have used a desktop PC or laptop for. It's that powerful. Considering the power, the battery life is amazing! Could it be better? Yes. But there's never been a truer case of your mileage may vary.

You need to have your name in your profile for it to work, could it be that?

Re: Notes about the new plugin

Daniel W. — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 12:25:15 -0000

OK, I didn't do anything, and my comments in Disqus are now at 407. But they're doubled up in the Wordpress admin console...

Re: Notes about the new plugin

Daniel W. — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 04:46:43 -0000

So do I export my comments again using the latest version? Won't that create duplicates for the 80-odd that have already been exported?

Re: Not all Wordpress comments importing

Daniel W. — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 10:08:05 -0000

Problems here too.

I read another comment that suggests that the code used for exporting comments from WordPress into Disqus won't work with WP 2.3 and above. Although my export completed without errors, it imported less than 1/4 of my comments.

Re: Introducing the New DISQUS

Daniel W. — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 19:34:32 -0000

Exciting update, but I'm having some trouble. I tried exporting my comments to Disqus. It claims to have finished exporting after 86 comments. My blog has over 500. How do I get the rest of them across?

Re: FriendFeed Activity Widget Released

Daniel W. — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 12:52:07 -0000

I had a bit of trouble getting this working in its non-widget-ized flavour. I tried the "friendfeed_activity()" call, but had the same problem as Garry above. Any news on that new version?
Sounds like a great plugin, looking forward to being able to use it.

Re: The scramble to catch up to Twitter (and its fail whale)

Daniel W. — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 12:12:04 -0000

I guess the fundamental reason why anyone would join any of these networks/services is the people you follow. Firing 140 character messages into a void doesn't hold a great deal of appeal, which is how I view Pownce and Jaiku right now.

Twitter contains people that I like to communicate with, and that I like to listen to. The problem is, it's just becoming too unstable to really bother with.

FriendFeed is a great aggregator, but seems to depend on the services it's aggregating for its success. I'd love to know how much of their content is aggregated, versus posted straight into the service.

If nothing else, this post has prompted me to add you on FriendFeed.

Hurry! Go watch it! You'll love it.

I believe they're only available until close of play on Saturday.

Btw: I'm replying to this via email on Disqus. Seems very slick, but
apologies if the email history is included (not sure if it's stripped
out).

You're not sure what it is? Have you watched the first two episodes yet? Run, don't walk, DO IT NOW!

Dr H was Joss's side project during the writers strike. It's an experiment in web marketing and the power of viral distribution. Or something. I'd have thought you'd have been all over it...
