Radio Alarm Clock Applescript

Friday 9th May 2008

Getting back to uni a couple of weeks ago, my radio alarm clock died. I’m not sure what is wrong with it, but for a week I was being woken by the sound of my mobile phone alarm. I found myself missing the sound of Chris Moyles in the morning, so what does any self [...]

Tomorrows iPhone “Roadmap” Announcement

Wednesday 5th March 2008

I’m going to talk about the event tomorrow which will surely announce what iPhone/iPod touch owners have been waiting for: the iPhone SDK, that’s Software Development Kit for those that don’t know. An SDK allows developers to build upon foundations to create pieces of software in a quicker time, which will often look and feel [...]

After the London to Brighton Bike Ride

Sunday 17th June 2007

Well, to be truthful, I don’t ache as much as I thought I would. That’s not to say it was easy, but it was a lot of fun. Rob and I enjoyed weaving through the traffic of bikes early on and throughout the morning. I’m definitely up for it again next year, where hopefully I [...]

London to Brighton sponsor request

Saturday 16th June 2007

My posts on this have been much more sparse than I had wanted to, due to not being able to train because of a bad ankle for two weeks, then the university work I had to do in the weeks after that.
So tomorrow is the big day. And I need your help. I have set [...]

Google Developer Day 2007

Friday 1st June 2007

Phil and I went to the Developer Day in London yesterday, which was looking really cool from the moment we walked in the door. We were given our name badges, a t-shirt and a bag full of freebies including a mousemat, notebook, pen, yoyo, some goo, bottled water, a memory stick and a booklet on [...]

Picasa Web Albums

Tuesday 22nd May 2007

Last time I checked out Picasa Web Albums was nearly a year ago, and I have just recently noticed a few of the new features there. There is now a free iPhoto Exporter that Google provides to enable you to upload pictures straight from iPhoto. It works like most of the other iPhoto exporter plugins [...]

A bad day in an Apple store

Wednesday 11th April 2007

So my brother has had his iPod nano since they came out, and recently has been having problems with it. I took a look at it and found out it appears to have the same error as Eric Cheng, although it appears he needed to use Windows to reformat it and my brother (and his [...]

The London to Brighton Bike Ride

Thursday 22nd March 2007

Just a quick post to say that today I received my pack for the London to Brighton Bike Ride, a 54 mile bike ride from Clapham Common to Brighton on the south coast of England. It takes place on the 15th June, so I have just under three months to train up for the event. [...]

Why I’m happy with iTunes 7.1

Tuesday 6th March 2007

I’ve read a few reports on the new release of iTunes, about CoverFlow view in fullscreen, advanced sorting options and the AppleTV preferences. However nice these are it’s not why I’m really happy about the update. A feature has been reintroduced that was lost on iTunes 7’s original release. One that I had used for [...]

On why I go to Apple Store openings

Saturday 17th February 2007

My dirty little secret is I’m secretly an Apple Store addict. I go to all the openings I can; so far I’ve been to 7 of the 9 UK stores, missing only Meadowhall and Trafford Centre, because they fell on dates I couldn’t make.
I get questions, and hassle, from various people about why I [...]
