Fun With Wordage

Coming Soon

Yummy. Properly detecting iPod, syncing address book, and everything. Very cool.
First release will likely be Windows only, but Mac support is easy once I get things stable. I just don’t feel like debugging on two platforms at once (reformat iPod each time).
Update [12-26-2005]: It’s out, and available here.

I’ve now had about about 48hrs with the new laptop. Just a few thoughts (in no paticular order):
On the plus side

Well built as typical of IBM. Nothing if squeaky, flimsy. It feels very solid, despite being so thin.
The 9 Cell battery sticks out the back a little (about an inch). And [...]

The laptop story is finally over.

new blog design, and new toys!

So things may be a little quiet as I wrap some stuff up, and keep up with school work. All are looking pretty [...]

I’ve promised mozPod for some time, well it’s getting close to a 0.1 release, just a few more things I want to do. Some cool things in the past few days:

Supports most fields, so you’ll get lots of info on your iPod. iPod doesn’t support everything Mozilla does, so we can’t get it [...]

I mentioned a little while ago that I was working on mozPod, to bring iPod sync to Mozilla products. I stopped for a while because I don’t have USB 2 on my laptop, and that makes hooking an iPod up really really bad. In fact, it’s pretty much been sitting in a box [...]

Coming Soon
Ability to sync your Thunderbird Address Book to your iPod.
Q. Why not yet

Q. Why is this Q&A so short
A. [...]
