Posting GPS trails and Images

I have become increasingly frustrated by the inability to easily add my photographs to my wikiloc walk traces and also the relative poor quality of the underlying maps that they use. So the search has been on for a system that easily combines my GPS traces with my Flickr photos and using preferably Google [...]

Palm on the iPhone

Lets hope these guys at StyleTap can get their software working on a iPhone.
Would be so great if I could run all my old Treo applications on the iPhone. The Treo applications I miss the most are:-
Eatwatch for tracking your weight and exercise. Examples of mine are on Flickr

Blood pressure storing and displaying blood pressure [...]

Art of the book

Firstly a disclaimer - Mia is my eldest sons wife so this post might be biased a little
Mia does the most amazing bookbinding ever (this is NOT bookbinding as the normal person would imagine), in fact, it is more to do with sculpture as in 3D works of art. She produces the [...]

iPhone testing week

First the poor iPhone slipped out of my pocket and disappeared into the loo (clean water :-)) It took about three days to recover, interestingly the last thing to return to work was the on/off switch!

Here you can [...]

In and out of the gutter.

Whilst walking to the bank, to pay in my Premium Bond winnings :-), I came across Andy & Dave cleaning gutters on the Cambridge Apartments building using an innovative  heavy duty vacuum cleaner, long pipe and a camera.
Pretty neat idea, especially in these health and safety times we live in, where any work [...]

Garlik to Qdos

Whilst checking my credit rating etc. using Garlik. I discovered the folks at Vodafone have me in default for £34 from May 2002. This I’m now disputing with them, since as far as I’m aware I paid of Singlepoint(4U) (who my contract was with) in July 2002.
Garlik are also getting into [...]

Adding a favicon to wordpress.

After looking at my 404 statistics and noticing the huge number of failed requests for a favicon.ico file I thought I should add one!
I added the favicon (the little graphic before the url in the bar at the top of the screen) to my site by:-

Importing the desired picture into the favicon.cc site, although you [...]
