I’ve successfully changed hosting providers from the awful and overpriced Powweb to the fairly priced and not too shabby NearlyFreeSpeech.net thanks to a recommendation by my dear friend Berklee. They’re a small hosting company that offers web hosting services on a ‘pay as you go’ system. With no early contracts, I figured [...]
My friend Jessica showed me the Project 365 iPhone app (iTunes link) which inspired me to finally try my hand at Project 365 this year. In a nutshell, it’s taking one picture for every day of the year so that at the end of the year, I have a picture diary. The main hurdle [...]

Previously, I wrote about GPush for the iPhone, an app that offers push notification. It kind of worked, but it wasn’t perfect.

After the first two days of it working fine, it just stopped working completely. No notifications even though I was getting new [...]
I’ve started running a lot more often to try to keep my girlish figure from exploding thanks to the massive amount of delicious food I eat. My goal is not to be stick-thin, but just to fit comfortably into my jeans. ALL my jeans. I never was much of a runner before. I hated running [...]

I’m having a bit of a problem. I buy a lot of apps from one computer (a PC) and wanted to sync them to my main computer (a macbook). Easy schmeezy right? Just open up iTunes, go to File >> Transfer Purchaes From “Pegasus” (what my phone is named). Unfortunately, that doesn’t work for me. [...]
