So get this, WordPress has released a new version of their free WordPress app. This baby adds horizontal support for typing with the larger keyboard. That must have been from the announcment from Apple that they would allow programmers access to the iPhones feature to use the keyboard in landscape mode. So clearly usin’ WordPress in landscape mode is from the 3.0 “SDK”.

So far, it’s nice usin’ this in landscape mode. Landscape is better for usin’ with two hands, but of course portrait keyboard is better for one hand. The good news is that it can be used either way, just rotate your iPhone / iPod Touch.

Another nice feature is the ability to edit pages. Not posts, but pages, such as “Contact” or “About”, things that have content.

They also allow for comment moderating. When someone posts a comment, rather than havin’ to go on your computer to accept a comment, you can do it from the WordPress app.

The last thing they have is the option to resize photos. That’s a great feature for people who’er wantin’ to upload large photos from their photo library, but I’m not sure if it’s needed for uploading screen shots or pics taken with an iPhone. The pic I’ve included now is usin’ the reduce picture size setting.

Peace, J

Update: I’m not sure why, but the one photo I included from a pic I took earlier today got posted upside down. Not sure why, kinda’ funny. But I’m hopin’ this is either a one time thing, or something they’ll fix.

Update: Ok, I left out mentioning that they added support for creating links. I left it out because I didn’t see any option for links. But I checked online and you create a link by typing out the start of a link. Here’s an example. Wired News

Just that easy.

Update: So yeah, WordPress has announced that there is an image posting bug that does rotate photos upside down ‘n’ crap, so they’ll release a fix for it soon. That’s cool then.

Well, the info has been released on what most of the major things will be comin’ out for the new iPhone 3.0 OS (set to come out this summer). There were hopes that Apple would introduce “teathered” Internet, as I mentioned the post before.

Well the bad news, for people like me, is that’s not gonna’ happen. Yeah, sorta’ sucks that I won’t be able to use the NeoCell to share its Edge Internet with my TomTom GPS so that I can get traffic updates. I’d go with a traffic antenna for my GPS, but, just like the NeoCell, I’ve hacked it too, turnin’ my model of GPS into the latest model (savin’ hundreds), so a traffic antenna may not work. That’s why I’m pushin’ to get the NeoCell to feed the Lexus data rather than an antenna.

Peace, J

It’s one in the morn, and this is the first time I’ve found out that Apple is going to announce details about a new OS update for iPhones, 3.0 later today.

So I’m readin’ that they may release the ability to use a Bluetooth connection to teather Internet.

I would love this because I would be able to use the NeoCell’s mobile internet to get live traffic updates to my gps via Bluetooth, which I haven’t been able to since getting an iPhone.

Lookin’ forward to seein’ all the things they announce.

Peace, J

So I’ve been workin’ on the design of the site and it’s almost finished. Goin’ with a groovy retro feel. Once the design is finished, I don’t gotta’ do anything else but just post from the NeoCell and I’ll be set.

Oh, and the WordPress app is workin’ great. I’m really greatful that WordPress has released this app, and that the ***** is free!

Peace, J
