I just got today’s update that turned the HD (ipad only) version of World of Goo into a universal app (iPad and iPhone). The iPhone only version will release on thursday and will be slightly cheaper. The key though is that you only have to buy the HD version to have the game on both your iPhone and iPad. So awesome!
I’m ecstatic about their decision to do this and wish every game/app company would follow suit. It drives me nuts that most games require you to buy two versions if you want it on both devices. Go 2Dboy!
First test post after connecting my blog to buzz.
Pretty easy once I realized that I had hidden the xfn relational section in my links editor >_<. Set up reciprocating rel=”me” links on my blog and google profile, force a google re-crawl at https://sgapi-recrawl.appspot.com, and voila!
Thanks to Dave for the info.
Ran across this a plugin called SmugWP while trying to decide on the best way to handle adding pictures to my posts. The great feature that caught my eye is that it integrates your smugmug account to wordpress seamlessly. When you go to insert a picture, the plugin inserts a tab for smugmug in addition to the regular options. There’s also lightbox 2 support as well, which creates a very cool overlay effect for viewing pics when you click on them (rather than simply opening it in a new window). Here’s a couple pics from when we were on the mall for Obama’s inauguration. Settings I used were thumbnail for the pic, large lightbox size.
Edit: Thanks Jed for pointing out I actually installed WP-Touch instead of IWphone. haha.
I seem to be more interested in setting my blog up to do cool things, than actually writing about said cool things. One of the plugins I’ve found is called WP-Touch. When it detects the user agent from an iphone or ipod touch, it sends a version of your blog that’s formatted for the iphone. There’s also an option for the visitor to see your blog with the original formatting if they so choose. I’ve included a couple screenshots I snagged while writing this post.
For me, the word pineapple always makes me think of quake as that was a term associated with grenades. In pineapple express, it refers to weed.
Anyway, thanks to becca for the preview. As my tweet said, the first two story arcs were hilarious while I found the last act lacking. I think it just felt like they ran out of jokes and decided to shoehorn an action sequence onto the movie to wrap things up.
I did super appreciate the little touches and object placement. Two that stood out were the footprints poster in James Franco's place and the bartles & james bottles in red's bathroom.
Sigh, I was trying to post this from my iphone, but I can't figure out how to scroll a textbox up/down. Meh.
Anyway, it's worth seeing for the buddy/weed jokes.
Victory! Only had to get up at 5:30am yesterday to get my black 16gb from tysons. Woot!
I want to make out with my phone, it's so awesome. So, anyone have some reccomended apps?
I've already installed:
smugshot (for viewing smugmug galleries of my photos)
city guide (created by wapo and ties into all their reviews)
remote
google
all the google apps
flashlight / mylite (turns it into an expensive flashlight)
sportstap (sports scores)
shazam (music recog)
yelp (restaurant reviews)
boxoffice (movies)
labyrinth LE (game)
tap tap revenge (game)
It's a sad day. I canceled my world of warcraft accounts today.
