With the release of Apple’s new iPhone 4 and Facebook’s updated app that lets you upload videos from your phone, many more people will have the ability to record and upload high-definition 720p videos to Facebook. However, there are many ways to upload a video to Facebook and they do not all produce the same [...]
Just received my iPhone 4 pre-order (a day early) and first thing I did was start recording some 720p videos with it. As soon as I recorded my first video I decided to share it with the world so I sent it by email and uploaded it to Youtube right from the phone. Much to [...]
Macs are known for their ability to just work. Software seems to behave very well and for the most part, you don’t get as many crashes or freeze ups as on a Windows machine. However, the more I use my Macbook Pro the more I realize that, while it is true that you get less [...]
UPDATE: I wrote this article back when there were no aparent free solutions to enabling emojicons. Now that is not the case and you can easily find free apps that enable emoji on your iPhone. All emoji apps are the same. Some add other useless functions but they all enable the same emoji keyboard so [...]

While working on Hillegass’ book Cocoa(R) Programming for Mac(R) OS X (3rd Edition). I made this small app. It is called Speak Line and it basically speaks whatever you type in the text field. It is very entertaining. The book shows you how to do it with the default voice but I could not stop [...]
Today I was programming in Xcode and realized that every time I ran my programs, I would get these weird messages in the debugger console. They didn’t break anything or cause the program to end prematurely but it made the compile and run process take longer and flooded the console with the weird message “unable [...]
A lot of people always ask me what the easiest way to create ringtones for the iPhone is. Apple made sure to make the process time consuming and not that obvious for the average user. Instead they offer to create the ringtone for you through iTunes at a price. Well I am here to tell [...]
After installing the new OS X Snow Leopard on my Macbook Pro, I encountered some incompatibilities with some software. All of these incompatibilities were easily fixed by updating the software except for one: my HP printer/scanner/copier software. The printer was working fine as a printer but I was not able to scan anything. I would [...]
Up until today, I have been using hot corners in Mac OS X Leopard in two ways: To start the screen saver as a way to lock my machine (require login) To put the display to sleep when I am in class and wish to conserve energy or hide my screen without having to log [...]
Ever since I bought my Macbook Pro 15″ I have been VERY happy with it. The operating system is great, the laptop hardware is very nice, and everything works together flawlessly. That is, until now. I have found the first con of this laptop: it’s sharp edges. Because of it’s unibody design and the way they [...]

It feel extremely sturdy while still maintaining the beauty that Apple products are notorious [...]
I have not updated this blog in a while and decided that now is a good time to do so. I am planning on learning Objective-C (Apple’s programming language) and creating an iPhone app. I still do not have an idea of the app I want to create. I just know that I want to [...]
