More Palm OS stuff available

You might not have noticed that there’s some more ancient Palm OS stuff available here. I will be adding more zipped files with old apps that are disappearing from anywhere else on the internet, although I’m not sure that anyone will actually these want anyway.

New section on hard to find Palm OS music apps added

Of interest to very few people I know, but even so I’ve decided to put it up here in case anyone is desperate for these things. It seems that now I’ve started to look for these things I keep remembering and finding more things that I think would be useful for this section.

So I’ll add more as a little archive of Palm OS music making history.

This is not really very good at all

As I was getting hold of PDAs at the weekend I remembered that I had this Stylophone Beatbox. So I put some batteries in it and got it working again.

I shouldn’t have bothered. It really wasn’t worth it at all. The sounds are awful and it’s really hard to get it to do anything very musical.

I think it’s something I need to bend

It’s not about the numbers

When I was writing Palm Sounds I took the decision, or rather the intention not to use analytics like google analytics as I realised that if you’re writing about something you love then why are you looking at the numbers all the time?

When google put an analytics module into blogger I lapsed a little and couldn’t help myself in checking the stats, but it didn’t tell me anything I didn’t really know intuitively myself. I think that unless you’re running a business of some kind those stat counters do nothing but discourage you or make you wonder who is reading and why.

I’m trying hard not to look at the stats on this site as for the most part I have no interest in them.

So if you’re reading this then please enjoy the site. I’ve no idea that you’re here.

Will it snow?

Everyone says it’s going to snow this weekend and to be fair we haven’t had the heavy snow like last year so perhaps it is overdue.

However, having checked the met office web site several times there no heavy snow predicted so I do wonder what all the fuss is about.

I guess people just love the whole thing of talking about it and anticipating it.
