Blogging from iPhone using Wordpress

by neil on October 31, 2008

I’ve just made myself a coffee and croissant and decided this would be a good time to do a quick review of the Wordpress App for iPhone, from my iPhone.

To avoid confusion I’ll refer to Wordpress for iPhone as ‘Wordpress App’ and your hosted Wordpress as simply ‘Wordpress’ for the remainder of this post. [Read more…]

Wordpress App for iPhone

by neil on October 30, 2008

Today I decided to update my 2G iPhone’s software from version 1.1.4 to 2.0, primarily so I could access Apple’s iPhone App Store. Am I glad I did:

Up until now I haven’t really bothered much with iPhone Apps, but that’s about to change. The App Store rocks! I love it already.

I’ve just downloaded Wordpress for iPhone (FREE) which I’m using to write and publish this article to the web. How cool is that. Takes about 1 minute to set-up!

Well, that’s taken me a total of about 10 mintues to find Wordpress for iPhone in the App Store, download to my iPhone, write and publish my first post.

Update: ‘Wordpress for iPhone’ picture added from my desktop afterwards. You can post images to your blog from the Wordpress iPhone app which I’m be exploring later in another post.

How to get your Vinyl Collection onto iPhone

by neil on October 29, 2008

I’m currently looking into doing an attic conversion to our house, and while up in the attic doing some attic-conversion-pondering I happened upon my old vinyl collection.

How to get vinyl collection onto iPhone

200+ albums and a handful of 45s gathering dust in the attic

I’ve actually replaced a lot of my favourite vinyl already in CD format but there’s so many gems I just haven’t been able to replace. Sadly, my old separates - Systemdek II turntable, Mission Cyrus amp and Tannoy speakers - are unlikely to see the light of day until our two toddlers get much older [Read more…]

With 34.2% of searches, Apple was the most search for gadget brand in the UK. Robin Goad, UK Research Director at Hitwise, said: “The iPod was the most popular Apple product, followed by the iPod Nano, the iPhone and newly launched iPod Touch.

“Apple has an extremely strong brand in the UK, and this data illustrates that this is translating into searches that are sending traffic to retail websites in the run up to Christmas.”

Despite the iPhone being the most searched for individual mobile phone model, Nokia is the most searched for mobile phone brand overall in the UK, very closely followed by Sony Ericsson.

iPhone ‘fastest selling device ever seen’

by neil on November 13, 2007

Sales of the iPhone are believed to be in the region of 100,000 during the first weekend of trading in the UK.

iPhone sells 100k in first weekend

The Mirror reported that iPhones were selling at “a rate of 4.2 per second at the height of the frenzy at 1,300 outlets”. Their Sunday issue stated there were “as many as 70,000″ sales across all the retailers selling the mobile - O2, Apple and Carphone Warehouse stores. Other reports claim the number is closer to 100,000.

Peter Erskine, CEO, O2 said “it has been the fastest-selling device we have ever seen and has sold in the tens of thousands.”

Despite the large volume of sales, things got off to a bumpy start at The Carphone Warehouse, where its stores wouldn’t accept credit card payments. Sales finally began when cash was accepted rather than the compulsary card payments.
