New Mobile Web Site Style

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

I just wanted to showcase the new Mobile Web site style for Red Dolan, the image shows what it looks like on the iPhone (I have also confirmed that it looks good on Blackberry Tour 9630). I am really excited about it as it is a new avenue for my skills, Mobile Web App Development.

I have to say that it really wasn’t hard either. I added a couple of declarations in the head of the document and created a mobile-specific style sheet. All in all it took a few hours to put together.

I am working on writing an article on it for Matters of Grey (MoG) here very soon!

I am curious to hear what you think about the new mobile design.

2/5/10 – I found out this morning that IE doesn’t like the way I did the mobile declarations and is basically stripping the styling all together. Stupid IE. Now I need to look into an alternative. Of course all modern and stable browsers render it correctly (Firefox 3, Safari 4, Chrome 4).

Review: Lumen

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008
 

Lumen is a logic puzzle game. It uses colored laser beams, colored filters, mirrors and check-points.

The game is played by strategically placing a colored laser and beaming it through the colored check-points. Along the way you may need to use a filter to change the color of the beam to go through other check-points. Once all check-points have been beamed through, the puzzle is complete.

The game is very addicting and boasts over a 1,000 puzzles between application and community. I have spent countless hours playing and have played a few puzzles that made me scratch my head for hours trying to figure them out. If you enjoy logic puzzles, this is a great deal at $1.99 through the App Store.

9/10/08 – I have lowered the star rating from 4.5 to 4. As I have played several of puzzles in the “all puzzles” category, and several of them have crashed back to the previous puzzle. One thing I will mention in their favor, they recently restyled the entire puzzle. It looks really slick now.

Wordpress App for iPhone

Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008

Those of you out there with a Wordpress blog and an iPhone can now download the Wordpress iPhone app from iTunes. I have downloaded it and used it and have to say it is really quite simple and easy to use. On top of that, you can actually add photos to a post directly from your iPhone. From my research it seems that your WP version needs to be 2.5 or higher to support this app. The other key point to be made is that it is currently really only for adding posts and not so much the management of anything else like comments.
