It’s only a start, but I’ve published my iOS automation and resource page here. There’s only a couple of links there at the moment, but both of those are very useful indeed, and I expect to add more over time.
Category: Admin
This category is about admin related to the site / blog so it won’t be the most interesting of topics.
iOS Automation apps page is live
If you’re interested in automating stuff on your iOS device then I’ve just published a little list of the main apps I use for this. I hope to publish some more on the subject too, but for now, the list is available here.
New mobile version
I’ve upgraded the mobile version of the site. It should look a bit different now and a little nicer too. Hopefully it’ll give me a little bit more freedom to make the mobile version a bit different from the desktop version.
Over the next few days I’ll be tinkering with different themes for the mobile version, so if you see it change it’s just me playing.
My app of the week this week is Dispatch
Email is one of those things that always gets me down. I never seem to be on top of email, but this app helps, it helps a lot. Dispatch lets you do all sorts of things with email that other apps or services don’t, things like saving URLs directly from an email to instapaper or pocket. Taking dates and making calendar entries from them.
You get the idea. A lot of what it does is obvious, but I’ve not seen a way of doing this elsewhere. So finally I might get a bit more of a handle on email. Maybe.
New automation pages
I’ve added a new page under projects which will eventually have a lot more stuff on automation, in iOS, in Android, and on the web. You can find the main section here and the pearl tree on iOS automation here.
My soundtracking stuff
I’ve added a little button thing in the sidebar, at the bottom, for SoundTracking. If you want to follow me on SoundTracking, click it. Couldn’t be simpler really.
More looking into Android
Researching Android …
A new look, a new theme, some tweaks
I’ve finally got around to uploading my new theme for the site. I’m quite pleased with it so far, and I’ve had a bit of a move around as well, so some of the pages have moved around too.
I’ve been meaning to do this for a while
Having written a blog that’s just about mobile music for just over 4 years I thought maybe I’d start to write something about me and what I’m up to. A more personal journal if you like. This blog won’t be about the world of mobile music. Although I’m sure that there will be lots of creative stuff that I want to talk about and some of that will inevitably be mobile related in some way. But that’s not essentially what my own blog is about. Having said that, I’m not entirely sure what it is about, but I can tell you what it won’t be about, which is at least a start.
It isn’t about:
- Boring rants and complaints about the state of this, that or the other in the world / neighborhood
- It isn’t about what I’m having for lunch
- It won’t contain excessively dull family details about holidays and days out
- It won’t just be a another Palm Sounds, although there’ll be a little bit of an overlap
What it will be about will evolve over time, and as it does it’ll be interesting for me to see where it goes.So don’t feel bad if you decide not to read this blog and just stick with Palm Sounds. That’s fine with me.If you do stay with this, the please let me know what you think. As always, I’m interested in comments.
I am Ashley Elsdon
