iGoogle on iPhone

This is something that I have wanted for a while; iGoogle on the iPhone. I use iGoogle often to keep track of all of the RSS feeds that I am subscribed to. Now it is going to be even easier to check all of those RSS feeds from my iPhone.

Google has recently been working on making things work better on the iPhone. This is definitely where Google needs to be headed. It is hard to understand why it has taken them so long to make their sites and features available to iPhone users since there are so many of us, but at least they are addressing the issue. There is so much potential for Google and Apple to join forces to bring the best to the iPhone. I can not wait to see what they come out with next.

Two Pictures Of The Day

Here are a couple pictures that I took with my iPhone today:



I don't know why I thought it looked cool, but it really did to me. It was so foggy and yet the sun was trying to shine through.

Apple iPod Firewire Cable For iPhone

I ran into this post today at iPhone FAQ looking for some iPhone news. I thought it would be interesting if you could use the old iPod firewire cables for the iPhone, but are they really any faster. I have heard arguments about it being faster, but unless it was firewire 800 it wouldn't really have an edge over USB 2. Interesting that it actually works to charge the iPhone though even if it doesn't actually work to sync it up.

Apple Wins Awards For Excellence

I just read an interesting post at tuaw about our favorite company. I love Apple and it is great to hear that they are getting praise for their efforts. The only question I have is why the iPhone was not on the list, but maybe it just doesn't fit what they are considering for the awards. You still have to hand it to Apple for making the list twice. If you have a MacBook Pro then you know exactly why it is on the list.

10 Things I Love To Do With My iPhone

I have had the iPhone for about half a year now and I have compiled a list of ten things that I find myself doing the most. Here are the ten things in no particular order:

1. Surf the web at a snails pace; sometimes I click on a page to load and then go to the bathroom so that by the time I get back it will load the page

2. Watch tons of movies; tons of movies

3. Listen to some music when I am on a plane or something

4. Take a random picture here and there and show it off to my friends and family

5. Check my email every 3 minutes even though it is always junk

6. Check the time in between the times I check the email

7. Check the weather every fifteen minutes even though it is not accurate until about 5 minutes before it actually happens

8. Write a post for one of my blogs very carefully; it is guaranteed that there will not be a picture if I post from the iPhone, but it is nice to post whenever I want

9. Use the calculator to figure out how much I could have saved if I had not bought an iPhone

10. Use the iPhone's ability to set multiple alarms to wake me up in the morning; this makes snoozing for a hour or more very easy

I love my iPhone, but when it comes down to it I think it might be possible to survive without it. I would have to learn to live without the internet at my fingertips, email, weather, and very small movies, but it could be done. Thankfully I have an iPhone and do not have to worry about roughing it.
