iPhone Autocorrect: Motörhead

I noticed it a while back, but a tweet from Dave Navarro inspired me to spread the word even more. iPhone Autocorrect knows how to spell Motörhead, with the umlaut on the second “o”.

Nerd Fight!

Josh Topolsky and MG Siegler are having war of words over reviews of Galaxy Nexus. John Gruber seems to be cheering for Siegler on this one.

Chronology:

To be honest, both Topolsky and Siegler are “tech elitists”. For the rest of us, we love watching “nerd fight”.

Twitter 4.0 for iPhone, extra steps to switch between accounts.

One thing I’m missing in Twitter 4.0 for iPhone is the ability to quickly switch between accounts. The new interface now adds one extra step. Previously you only have to tap the “Accounts” arrow on the top left of the app. With Twitter 4.0 for iPhone, you have to tap “Me”, scroll to the bottom of the page, then “Switch accounts”.

Adobe Flash and HTML5.

The headline: “Adobe to cease Flash development for mobile browsers, refocus efforts on HTML5.”

Adobe confirms this.

I had a conversation with a cousin of a friend who turned out to be one of Adobe Senior Vice President. We had a brief conversation about tablets. He told me to get the one from Motorola or RIM instead of an iPad. The reason: Adobe Flash. I do not remember exactly when, but it was definitely sometimes in December 2010.

Flash forward (no pun intended) to November 9th, 2011 around 18:00 hour. I just got the confirmation for a meeting with this Adobe Senior Vice President a few weeks from today.

I would have a good 120 minutes to talk to him on multiple subjects. Now, what topics should I discuss with him?

Having fun with EasyPay at Apple Store.

I went to Apple Store earlier today to test out their newly rolled out EasyPay. The EasyPay requires Apple Store app with iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S.

I walked into Apple Store, South Coast Plaza and saw the little signs by the merchandize.

I then took my iPhone out and launched Apple Store app. Immediately it gave me the option to use EasyPay.

Unfortunately I really don’t have anything to buy at the Apple Store.

Well, the next time I really need to buy something from Apple Store I will use EasyScan, if possible. They don’t allow EasyPay to buy a MacBook Pro yet, for some obvious reasons.
