NYDailyNews.com: “Why do I have to see Democrats as my enemies? I’ve got Al Qaeda. I’ve got the Taliban. I’ve got enough enemies. I’m supposed to call this President despicable? The people who are despicable are the ones who constantly mislead the public in the interest of selling books. Or themselves. And always cloaking themselves in patriotism. Shame on them.”
I just wanted to test a code highlighter plugin for WordPress, so I’ll use my open source ping.fm Objective-C engine as an example. Yeah, I know, shameless self promotion.
Here’s how to use P8 in your app…
[codesyntax lang=”objc”]
// Yes, you owe a Release later for P8 and
// TestDelegate. This example doesn't do it.
TestDelegate* del = [[TestDelegate alloc] init];
P8Engine* P8 = [[P8Engine alloc] initWithOptions:kP8APIKey appKey:kP8AppKey delegate:del];
if (nil != P8)
{
// Post something.
[P8 userPostStatus:@"Testing 1,2,3... Please ignore, http://f67.us/iam"];
// Create a short URL
[P8 urlCreate:@"http://rob.crabapples.net/"];
// Resolve a short URL
[P8 urlResolve:@"http://ping.fm/xeECl"];
}
[/codesyntax]
Ok, I don’t really like that.

Good morning!

The correct answer was…
See you next Thursday.
Here’s a link to little Agnes delivering the line, she’s so cute. I laugh every time I see this clip.
Here’s what I had to day about mobile computing in 2002.
“This *IS* the future of computing devices! Oh just you wait. Yessir, just you wait. Some day you’ll be carrying one of these little gems around wondering how you ever got along without it. It’ll be just like your first cell phone. One day you were doing fine without one, the next day you’re lost without it. Can you imagine carrying your computer around, doing your work, blogging from the coffee shop (I know people already do this!), walking back to your desktop and docking this baby so you can use the full size keyboard and mouse?”
I’d imagine I was talking about the Tablet PC at the time, the link to the Microsoft page is 404.
The iPad may eventually deliver on the promise.
Good morning movie liners!
I’m going to declare a tie, mainly so I don’t have to sleep with the dogs when I return home tonight! For the first time EVER I had a guess from one of my daughters and my wife, at approximately the same time.
So, our BIG winners are Haileigh and Kim Fahrni.
The correct answer was…
New York Times: “Last November, you might have been tempted by the Motorola Droid, “the best Android phone on the market.†A month later, the HTC Hero was “the best Android phone on the market.†By January, “the best Android phone yet†was the Nexus One. In April, “the best Android device that you can purchase†was the HTC Incredible. In May, “the best Android phone on the market†was the Sprint Evo.”
Go read the entire article, it’s a good read, too many quotable paragraphs to include here. He makes some great points about the choice between Android based phones and the iPhone. The bottom line: iPhone is a better choice, and experience, for everyday folks. Android is a good choice if you’re more technically inclined.
Good morning movie liners!
