Twintro: Meet new people on Twitter

September 2nd, 2008

Today I launched my newest project called Twintro. It’s a service that helps you find new quality posters on Twitter. So far it has received some press so I’m very excited about it. I hope that people find it useful and suggest new features.

This is how it works:

  1. Follow Twintro on Twitter
  2. Every day Twintro retweets a different user’s tweets to you
  3. If you like that user, follow them!

So please try it out and if you have any suggestions let me know!

The iPhone 3G Price Drop Doesn’t Matter

June 10th, 2008

By now you know the bullet points: the new 3G iPhone is smaller, cheaper, and faster than its predecessor. But at what cost? While we know what Apple has told us, it appears that AT&T is having its own say about the iPhone 3G and what it means for the future of the carrier’s relationship with Apple.

As with the original iPhone, you’ll have to sign up for a 2-year contract in order to grab an iPhone. The iPhone 3G will have slightly higher data plan prices than the original model: individual users will now pay US$30/month for unlimited data, and business users will have to fork over $45/month.

The AT&T data plans don’t include any SMS, so including the minimum amount of 200 at $5.00 per month, the new lowest price for any talk, data and SMS plan is $75.00. Up $15.00 from iPhone 2G!

You will be paying $180.00 plus taxes more per year, negating that $200 savings from Apple within your first twelve months of service.

You can use the iPhone SDK on a PowerPC Mac

March 10th, 2008

The readme for the iPhone SDK says it is only compatible with Intel based macs running OS X > 10.5.2. Apparently it is possible to get it to run on PowerPC based Macs:

By default, the iPhone SDK package available free from Apple’s site will run on a PowerPC-based Mac but omit the iPhone SDK-related files, installing only Xcode 3.1 beta and a series of other files. This routine is easily circumvented via the shareware tool Pacifist, which can be used to force an installation of the entire SDK package on PowerPC-based Macs.

Follow these steps:

  • Drag the iPhone SDK package onto the Pacifist icon
  • Select the top entry, “Contents of iPhone SDK”
  • Click the “Install” button in the upper-left corner and enter your administrator credentials
