http://o2iphone.wordpress.com Probably just another WordPress.com weblog about the iPhone Sat, 14 Mar 2009 13:42:26 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ http://s2.wp.com/i/buttonw-com.png http://o2iphone.wordpress.com http://o2iphone.wordpress.com/2009/03/14/use-twitter-as-an-alternative-to-skype-pn-iphone/ http://o2iphone.wordpress.com/2009/03/14/use-twitter-as-an-alternative-to-skype-pn-iphone/#comments Sat, 14 Mar 2009 13:42:26 +0000 Mark http://o2iphone.wordpress.com/2009/03/14/use-twitter-as-an-alternative-to-skype-pn-iphone/ ]]> I have started using a couple of private twitter accounts to chat to my wife on our iPhones.
We use Tweetie because it supports multiple accounts.

If Apple were to allow trials for a few days that would be really useful.
It’s good that some developers are making “lite” versions of their software but proper time limited access would also be helpful.
I guess the lack of this now is helping developers make a little more money but can result in negative comments from people who have purchased and then sat they wasted their money. I’ve read a lot of these comments.
Hopefully this will come at somestage and until then I’ll wait to purchase some of the apps I’m interested in.

Simply by holding down the home button and pressing the power button a a screenshot will be taken and saved into the photo library.
Here’s a screenshot of this post as I write it!

These are from a recent trip to South Africa with my son. They were taken with a Nikon D300, 18-200mm lens.

Well, that’s the plan.
I created this blog from Safari on my macbook pro and had initially used my mobileme email account. Unfortunately, their mail service was down for me so I needed to use another account to activate the blog. Not a good start
My plan is to maintain this blog with posts about how I get on with the phone in general and also the growing number of apps that I am accumulating.
Thanks for coming by.
Mark
