iPhone 4 Gets Free Cases
After all of the fuss over the antenna problem with the iPhone 4, Apple has announced the following on their website:
iPhone 4 Bumpers are currently unavailable for sale.
Apple will offer a free iPhone 4 Bumper or other select cases to iPhone 4 customers. Details on how to order a free Bumper or case will be available soon on apple.com.
Made of durable rubber and molded plastic, the two-tone iPhone 4 Bumper fits snugly around the edges of your iPhone 4 and gives it a splash of color. It’s a fun and unique way to personalize your iPhone 4.
Geocaching
Well, I started Geocaching today. I've been putting it off for over a year, but now I'm ready.
I picked up two on the way home from work today. It was a start. We'll see how it picks up soon.
I'm going to start local and work my way out from there.
Is anyone else into Geocaching?
WoW Armory Auction House
I can't believe it. They finally added the Auction House and Mail abilities to other WoW Armory (www.wowarmory.com).
You can now browse the in-game auction house (your faction and the neutral auction houses), place bids, post items for sale, collect the money from sold auctions, re-list items that did not sell, and more.
Here's what Blizzard has on the Armory page:
The Remote Auction House lets you browse your realm's auction house through a web browser or the iPhone's Armory app. With a subscription to World of Warcraft Remote, you can also both bid on (or buy out) existing auctions as well as list your own items for sale from your bags, bank, and mailbox.
From what I can tell, everyone can check out all the features of the new Auction House via Armory, but soon it will cost extra subscription fees on top of your WoW subscription.
I've only placed one bid on the Auction House this way. We'll see how that goes... But I have already sold an item that I posted from my iPhone.
Backing up Flickr Photos
I went on a search today to find a way to backup my photos that I've stored on Flickr.
I started using Flickr a in 2006 to store all of my photos online so I could easily search and find any of my photographs from any internet-accessible computer.
Since then, we have seen prices drop and make laptops and mobile devices like the iPhone and Android more available to consumers. We've also seen better service use of Wi-Fi, 3G, and 4G.
My Flickr account is now wonderful and at my fingertips.
But what would happen if I lost this connection? What if I needed them and did not have these technological comforts to get me to my photos? Or what is a catastrophe occurred and somehow the Flickr servers exploded (in theory)?
My thought actually falls to the fact that I am responsible for my own property, and not a company that I know (and trust) because of the internet and what they wrote on a Terms of Service Agreement.
In short, back up my photos so I don't get upset one day down the road.
BlizzCon WoW News – Cataclysm
I was on my way out of town this afternoon when I decided to catch up on the latest news and Twitter updates on my iPhone. I read a few articles and updates when I started noticing some short Twits like "Defense gone!" and "MP5 gone!"
These updates were referring to changes being made in the upcoming World of Warcraft Expansion "Cataclysm".
Even though there may be many sites out there that will fill you in on all the changes to expect, I'm going to consolidate all the info I find onto this post for your convenience.
This list will expand over the next week. Changes may or may not be dated.
Comment on changes and additions to my list.
iPhone App Space
I was updating my iPhone Apps today. While ai the App store, I thought I would browse the new popular addons. I started to wonder. What happens when I use up all the App spots on my iPhone? Is there a way to get more? Will there be a time that Apple adds this? I wonder...
EDIT: I'm not sure if it was an update to the iPhone OS, or if I finally added enough apps to force the iPhone to give me more pages, but I now have a little more room. Any thoughts?
FlickrMud
If Flickr is being blocked in your workplace, you can try to access it using the secret FlickrMud.
Mum's the word on this. Don't share with your internet technicians. Maybe it will stay unblocked.
