I’ve been searching for a while to find just the right iPhone dock, and I think I may have found it with the Platinum Podium .
It has the sleek styling that is very similar to that of Apple, and has the ability to rotate the iPhone. I think I may order up one and write up a review on it.
Just read over on Engadget that Apple is holding a preview event for iPhone OS 3.0 on March 17th. This is great news for all the developers out there, and hopefully means that the background push notification services are finally going to be ready for the device. Now don’t get your hopes up of updating your iPhone on the 17th, this is an early preview of what Apple is building. I for one can’t wait for the exciting changes to the OS.
Well as anyone knows I am a big Halo fan. I even bought the premium Halo 3 with the big ass Master Chief helmet. Trevor and I used to have almost weekly Halo matches at my old apartment. We used to have a custom game that we played on blood gultch. Just sniper rifles, pumas (warthogs) and Sheila (tanks). We would literally hunt each other, and fire off sniper shots from across the board. Many good times were had back then.
So when I found a deal on buy.com to pre-order the collectors edition for only $69.99 I jumped on the opportunity.
I’m blogging this again because the site was down yesterday due to heavy traffic. My good friend Patrick has applied for The Best job in the World. So what are you waiting for help a small town guy achieve his life long dream.
This is a fairly simple process, but not everybody knows how to accomplish it.
1: Put the CD or DVD into the drive
2: Open Disk Utility (Applications -> Utilities)
3: Select the disk, not the media
4: Select File -> New -> Disk Image (It should be the name of the disk you want to make an ISO of)
5: Select CD/DVD master from the “image format” drop down
6: Click save
7: This creates a .cdr extension which is the same as a .iso Just rename the file to .iso and your all done.
Two posts in one day, this one is to test something out, but also talk about the reason I haven’t really been posting much lately. I blame twitter. If you don’t know what twitter is, it’s a microblog. You can post short 140 character thoughts, I find it so much easier to do this then write long blog posts. It’s also very convenient, because there are so many ways to post messages to twitter.
So there it is, my admission of why I have neglected my blog, and another re-assurance that I will find more stuff to talk about here.
So I’m finally writing another post. It’s been a while. I haven’t forgotten about my site, I just haven’t had much time. Between working full time with a part time job, that sometimes gets full time hours, to having a newborn baby I just haven’t found the time to write down my thoughts. So I am going to change that, I promise. So feel free to read up on all my old posts, and get ready for some new ones. Who knows you just might hear about all the awesome projects I’ve been working on when the time is right.
My awesome & crazy friend Patrick Gensel has applied for “The Best Job in the World” and needs your votes. Help him achieve his goal of working for the Queensland Tourism bureau for 6 months. Check out his video submission and rate away.
I am ashamed that I have not made a post in almost a month. Truth be told a lot has been going on recently. Mainly the birth of Juliana. There is just so much going on, from bringing her home from the hospital for the first time, and then having her baptized.
Also there is work, which was going well until I had to go see the neurologist. My back is still not getting any better from the auto accident at work back in October of 2007. I still have pain in my neck as well, but not as bad as my back. The doctor decided to change my medicine and get me a back brace. Well it turns out I am allergic to the medicine he put me on, so it made me break out in hives pretty severely. I had to be taken out of work for a week to try to get rid of them. I’m currently doing pretty good with the progress of getting rid of the hives. The doctor has me on steroids and benadryl to do so. The only problem with this combination is the steroids make me hungry and wired, and the benadryl makes me pass out. It’s been a fun little experiment.
I’m going to try to post more often I promise. I also need to get my pingpress.fm plugin functioning again, so that I can update all my social media sites when I do post.
So for now if your reading this, thank you for being a loyal reader and stay tuned for more tech enthusiasm.
