When Apple fanboy developers attack!
Yikes, check out the comments following Jesse Ezell's post about tinkering with the iPhone SDK . That's a little tough to read. I'm happy to admit I'm an Apple fan, with a Mac Pro, MacBook Pro, two iPods, an iPhone and an AppleTV. They've got me. Heck...
PowerPoint ain't got nothin' on Keynote, the culture gap
That $100 store credit from Apple for my iPhone has been burning a hole in my pocket now for awhile, so I strolled into church, er, the Apple Store to play with Keynote, the presentation tool and approximate competitor to PowerPoint. I've done a few PowerPoint...
Apple is not the new Microsoft
I noticed the PC World editorial proclaiming that Apple was the new Microsoft (via this blog ), and I swear the mainstream press will print anything these days. I've gone on record time and time again about how much I care about, and love using, Microsoft...
Improved power management for iPhone?
Ever since the 1.0.2 update for the iPhone, described only as "bug fixes," I'm getting crazy better battery life from it. I was comfortably charging it every two to three days before, but now even after two days and a fair amount of iPod use, it's lasting...

Facebook app for iPhone... wow!

Two weeks with iPhone, and the good constraints of Web apps
I've had my "Jesus phone" as some have called it for about two weeks, and so far I'm pretty impressed. I just put it in the charger after more than two days, with about two days stand by, eight hours of "use" (not sure, but I think that's iPod use, Internet...
An iPhone moment in traffic
I unfortunately have a 40 minute commute, which sucks given my tree-hugger ways. I feel that at this point in my life it's not practical to move since I'm not "settled" in a relationship and could end up moving again anyway. I have a ten mile stretch...

First play with the iPhone
Well, Jeff Putz Week started last night with a fun date to see a community theater show. Big River was the show. It wasn't terrible at all, though my date used to work professionally as a stage manager in NYC so she had some comments. The point was that...

AJAX woes in Safari
I'm really frustrated right now with some issues we're having with the AJAX framework and Safari. Our stats show that's about 5% of our market, so naturally we can't ignore it. We dynamically render a series of controls and validators (the compatible...

Windows Safari != OS X Safari (AJAX issues)
For those of you expecting a level of comfort that the Windows version of Safari works just like the Mac version, think again. We just encountered a pretty serious problem that happens only in the Mac version surrounding the ASP.NET AJAX framework. I...
