iPad

Then the iPad appears on screen presented by Steve Jobs who's obviously not a well man. The initial scepticism about a device which looks much like an over sized iPhone starts to disappear rapidly. It soon becomes clear that this new device is going to rewrite the rulebook. Shackles are coming off and we're finally going to be able to interact with hardware that works for us. The operating system is there to enable rather than restrict. Pure genius!

Without Apple's strategy of keeping the entire computing package in its own hands [software and hardware, unlike Microsoft running on devices by many different manufacturers] , the iPad and iPhone would probably never have happened. I used to see this as negative, perhaps even as a tad arrogant. I have changed my mind. This device is going to propel Apple to even greater heights. But there is a difference in this case. What we were led to believe was gospel, Apple is doing away with. This makes Apple look very, very good but others very, very bad. No other device will be worrying the IT establishment more than this iPad. It's a bit like the truth finally being revealed after having been shortchanged by others.

Well done Apple!

Web development with RapidWeaver

J33PER has recently changed his entire website. For years DreamWeaver has been used with varying success but J33PER never managed to get the look and feel he required. Then with the acquisition of a Mac Mini, iWeb was tried. Unfortunately iWeb is too restrictive and not optimized for recognition by search engines to name but an issue. In fact J33PER is a tad upset that Apple feels it can call iWeb a web development tool.

Anyway, after a bit of searching, J33PER found RapidWeaver. This software is amazing and what;s more, there is a user community out there developing some excellent add-ins to the RapidWeaver product. If you're using a Mac, check it our here.

Long story short; J33PER has just added the facility of commenting on his blog pages. This is pretty cool and we're hoping you'll use it. In fact, why not try it out now!
