along with my feature request which is to be able to read in landscape mode
excellent, been meaning to ask for that :)
The syncing's just too funky between it, NNW Mac, FeedDemon and Newsgator
really?
― grimly fiendish, Tuesday, 5 August 2008 17:42 (seventeen years ago)
Aye. The read/unread statuses aren't reliable, sometimes clippings don't appear properly, and NNW iPhone has 0 support for flags or re-reading read stories.
― stet, Tuesday, 5 August 2008 17:43 (seventeen years ago)
And NNW Mac plays the fuck up if unread statuses change while it's open.
is the purpose of Byline so that you can read your Google Reader feeds while offline? The app description leaves me unclear about that. Because for online reading the iPhone Google Reader page seems good to me.
― Euler, Tuesday, 5 August 2008 17:45 (seventeen years ago)
Yeh, it's an offline client for Google Reader -- it also stores the entire web page of starred items, and any pages noted in yr google notebook. I prefer it to the webpage for online, too.
― stet, Tuesday, 5 August 2008 18:31 (seventeen years ago)
Anyway, if you've got NNW issues you're much better off reading/posting here: http://forum.newsgator.com/Forum71-1.aspx

Anyone Jailbreak their iPhone 3G? A friend of mine is liking the Intelliscreen thingie.
― schwantz, Tuesday, 5 August 2008 19:54 (seventeen years ago)
hmm backing up doesn't seem that much better.
plus, when i closed itunes and re-started it a second later, it mounted the phone again and... urgh... BACKED IT UP AGAIN. it didn't realize it had just done that like 5 minutes before?
― s1ocki, Tuesday, 5 August 2008 20:24 (seventeen years ago)
also in my list of "app updates" now there's two of everything. like doubles.
― s1ocki, Tuesday, 5 August 2008 20:25 (seventeen years ago)
yes, the app-update thing seems to be fucked. i'm trying to ignore it.

in the super niche target market dept.:
The Seattle Bus app is actually worth the $9.99. Only helpful if you're a King County Metro bus rider on a regular basis like :-D. You just hit "find me", and it shows you all the upcoming buses, notably how on time or late they are, which bus, and how many minutes until they arrive. Really cheap interface, but that's part of its charm (for now.)
I know other cities have the "minutes remaining until X bus" info at the stop itself, but hey I gotta take what I can take.
― Mackro Mackro, Wednesday, 6 August 2008 16:03 (seventeen years ago)
incorporating gps into a public-transit app is smart.
― s1ocki, Wednesday, 6 August 2008 16:04 (seventeen years ago)
I like that the app is called "Seattle Bus", not King County Metro App or the Emerald Transit Wizard. "TEH SEATTLE BUS APP". Total lack of grace.
― Mackro Mackro, Wednesday, 6 August 2008 16:05 (seventeen years ago)
I would pay £2 for an app that does what redhotpawn.com does - postal chess over the internet - and I would pay it now
― webinar, Thursday, 7 August 2008 14:40 (seventeen years ago)
i would pay for an app that would allow me to record my phone calls! especially voip phone calls.

Anybody running pwnage 2.0 and finding it kinda unstable?
― antexit, Thursday, 7 August 2008 15:53 (seventeen years ago)
my friend is making an app where you can slide pictures of meat around the screen. steak, bacon, rack of lamb. does this sound worth 99 cents?
― phil-two, Thursday, 7 August 2008 15:53 (seventeen years ago)
no. sorry, phil-two's friend.

― Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Thursday, 7 August 2008 16:56 (seventeen years ago)
yes! wouldn't it a nice diversion to slide a chili cheese dog (with onions) around your iphone screen?
― phil-two, Thursday, 7 August 2008 16:57 (seventeen years ago)
or maybe there can be a mouth on the bottom and you have to slide the meat into the mouth....
― phil-two, Thursday, 7 August 2008 16:58 (seventeen years ago)
that's this other thing
― webinar, Thursday, 7 August 2008 17:25 (seventeen years ago)
depending on your definition of meat, you might be able to get away with a lot more than $1.99
― Mackro Mackro, Thursday, 7 August 2008 17:36 (seventeen years ago)
that sounds more fun too.
but i need help with mobileme/mac.com.. i have my regular mac.com email and my work email. so i want both pushed to my iphone, so i created a me.com alias that I have my work emails forwarded to. so this works fine sorta on my iphone since both sets of emails get pushed to it, but i don't have the option of sending email from that alias. just my regular mac.com address.
and on my computer, each email sent to my work email ends up in my inbox twice since i guess when it forwards to the me.com alias that in turn gets forwarded to my regular mac.com adderss which is why my phone gets all the emails and the computer gets doubles of my work emails. does this make sense?
so basically, im only allowed one real user account on mac/me.com now? and these aliases are just able to take email and forward to my regular mac.com address?

Could the goddamn MMS "implementation" suck more? They give you a link with two gobbledygook things to enter, but you can't copy and paste. FAIL!
― schwantz, Thursday, 7 August 2008 17:51 (seventeen years ago)
Yea, Why can't they just make that permalink url?

MMS what?
― sunny successor, Thursday, 7 August 2008 18:06 (seventeen years ago)
Super-annoying, and the website that you have to use is slow and crappy. It would be nice if AT&T saved all your MMS messages so you could access them with a simple login/pass.
― schwantz, Thursday, 7 August 2008 18:23 (seventeen years ago)
bi have my regular mac.com email and my work email. so i want both pushed to my iphone, so i created a me.com alias that I have my work emails forwarded to.
Can't you access your work email server directly?
― Elvis Telecom, Thursday, 7 August 2008 18:36 (seventeen years ago)
i can but i'd rather have it push so i can get it more instantaneous? or is that b.s.
― phil-two, Thursday, 7 August 2008 19:09 (seventeen years ago)
does texting on an iPhone really suck?
― Surmounter, Thursday, 7 August 2008 19:26 (seventeen years ago)
nope
― s1ocki, Thursday, 7 August 2008 19:34 (seventeen years ago)
i like that you can see your back and forht like ichat
yeah its fun
― phil-two, Thursday, 7 August 2008 19:35 (seventeen years ago)
Push email through Exchange is great, but a battery-killer. I don't get a full day's worth of power from a charge. Pretty sweet, though, especially with the Outlook calendar integration. No more syncing.
― schwantz, Thursday, 7 August 2008 19:40 (seventeen years ago)
I'd skip all this push nonsense for right now. Set it to check every 30 minutes.
― Elvis Telecom, Thursday, 7 August 2008 20:33 (seventeen years ago)
DUDES. try testing the word motörhead. or typing it. IT PUTS IN THE FUCKING UMLAUT!
still doesn't recognize "fucking", but WOAH. my phone types motörhead.
