Welcome Again
|
|
September 1st, 2009
|
Welcome to the latest version of skiffie.com. As you can tell I have decided to move over to Worpress as it seems a lot less maintenance than Drupal and, well, you have probably heard about the 5 minute installs -- this is not a joke.
I intend to bring over some of the previous articl...

N900 -- Music & Media
|
|
May 25th, 2010
|
|
Three weeks after my N900 arrived, which was worth the wait, I have been getting to know the device better. One of my many uses for the phone is as a music player. In this post I will cover the applications, built in or otherwise that I have tried so far; the trials & tribulations; the good and the ...

N900 -- Worth The Wait
|
|
May 9th, 2010
|
|
After ordering a N900 two and a half months ago, the wait finally ended today when I got to unbox my N900. I decided that I had to share my thoughts about the whole experience and would be very interested in your feedback to see if you felt the same way too. [...]

Favorite Chrome Feature Available in Safari
|
|
May 7th, 2010
|
|
Since getting my mac-mini last year my browser of choice has been Google Chrome. It is lightening fast and has some really cool features. OK, it was a bit buggy and I was running a 'dev' version, but there were somethings that I can't like without. The most important feature for me was the keyword s...

Ovi Revisited -- 2010 v1
|
|
March 20th, 2010
|
|
I noticed that I had written a post almost exactly 6 months ago about Ovi and the services they provide. Thought now would be a good time to address the sites and services and see how they have improved (or worsened) over the past few months. [...]

The Live Cam Socialize HD webcam
|
|
March 9th, 2010
|
|
I bought one of these webcams at the weekend and thought I would write a quite review. Since getting my Mac Mini, quite some time ago, I have needed a camera that actually works on the Mac OS. I already have 2 cameras and both of them didn't quite work as expected. [...]

BBC -- Questionable Content
|
|
January 7th, 2010
|
|
I have always been an admirer of the BBC and it's web sites. For me it has always been the first place that I have gone to get reliable and up-to-the-minute news and information about world news, entertainment, technology and sport - especially football. I believe their coverage has been second to n...

KISS
|
|
December 17th, 2009
|
|
Social networking sites have added a new dimension to community based media. Previously most communities, such as forums or message boards, required some sort of sign-up and the acceptance of some basic rules. With the inception of fan pages on Facebook, for example, these rules fly out the window. ...

Absence

|
December 10th, 2009
|
|
After promises of constant updates I slipped a disc in my back an was not able to really be near a computer for about 6 weeks. I am back now, but perhaps my tact has changes slightly. I was thinking about mobile, mobile web and accessibility but now I have really been taken by the Apple TV and ev...

Software Update for Wii
|
|
September 12th, 2009
|
|
I was ranting a bit the other day about beta software. Another gripe of mine is when you update software and then it doesn't work or you are given no indication of what the update will really involve. I'll bet we have all experienced this at one time or another. [...]

Betas -- Good or Bad?
|
|
September 11th, 2009
|
|
For some time now I have been ranting about quality of certain goods: be it software; hardware or everyday goods. Is it just me or are we accepting crap? By this it appears that many products are now released in Beta state - is this just an excuse for companies to release products that are sub-stand...
