A webdev in San Jose, California.
for 2007
Today I noticed my Verizon cell phone now has a EV-DO signal in Carbondale, Illinois. I haven’t seen anything online about this yet, including on Verizon’s coverage locator, so it must have happened not too long ago.
It’s about time. I’m sure Carbondale’s 21,000 college students will welcome the ability to watch broadband-speed video clips on their phones, and finally people can actually use the V-CAST service Verizon pitches at their Carbondale store.
Ars Technica explains how the RIAA won the Thomas case. Judging from the article, the evidence was very clear-cut against Thomas and it’s not surprising that she lost given the circumstances.
It’ll be interesting to see how future RIAA trials play out that rely on more contentious interpretation of Copyright law.
If this MacRumors post is to be believed, full Calendar editing will soon be possible on the iPod touch, with Steve himself labeling the lack of editing as “a bug that will be fixed in a future software update.”
I’ve always wanted this feature and sent feedback to Apple about it. The touch would fit my needs well: a device to manage events, play music, and do light browsing over campus Wi-Fi. I think contacts make more sense on an actual phone.
I took some time this weekend and made some changes to the site’s theme. I’ve been drafting some posts of a technical nature and realized that the code just doesn’t look right crammed into a 435px wide space… so I made the post view bigger. “Aside” posts (like this one) are now in the same area as all of the other posts. Improvements are all over the place, and will make a few more small changes in the next few days.
Stay tuned for that “technical” post… but for now, I have to write two papers! Yay for school.
