Cool iPhone App Takes 360 Degree Panoramas
010 months ago
Last week I discovered a cool new app for the iPhone that lets you take 360 degree panoramas by automatically snapping photos as you aim the camera and then stitching them together. The app is called Photosynth and it was made, ironically, by Microsoft. While it is certainly far from perfect, the [...]
Changing Your Windows Live ID E-mail? Be Absolutely Sure it’s Right
011 months ago
Every time I think Microsoft has cornered the market on frustrating technical issues and stupid policies, I find out something new that again puts them over the top. I recently changed my e-mail address a few months ago because, after many blissful years of receiving absolutely no spam whatsoever, [...]

If anybody out there is using a newer build of the DD-WRT firmware with their router and has been having issues streaming Netflix movies from the iPhone app over WiFi, I have also stumbled across the reason and the solution for this problem.

01 year ago
I recently moved into my first home about eight months ago and had to choose between Comcast or AT&T for television and internet. You could say I was fortunate to move to an area that has a little bit of competition because for the first time the AT&T U-verse service was available to me. [...]

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted about anything but life has been keeping me busy as of late.

Multitasking, or at least some form of it, is finally going to be included in this release [...]
Flex for Free: Setting Up the Flex 4 SDK with Eclipse IDE
54
I recently wrote about Adobe’s release of Flash Builder 4, ColdFusion Builder and the free Flex 4 SDK. While Flex Builder is a great IDE, as I’m sure are Flash Builder and ColdFusion Builder, most independent developers cannot afford the licenses that range into the hundreds of dollars. What is an [...]

It appears that Adobe has released the final versions of Flash Builder 4, ColdFusion Builder, and the free Flex 4 SDK. Use the links below to navigate to the respective product pages.

As a new homeowner as of this past February 18th, I was trying to decide whether or not I should get a home security system. Many vendors are offering free installation but, of course, their service comes with an attached monthly fee. I recently came across an iPhone app called iCam that provides a [...]

As I had mentioned in one of my previous posts, I have used the FLVPlayback class for some of the video player projects I have worked on in the past. The newer version (2.5) supports some cool features such as Dynamic Streaming and DVR capabilities. There are some limitations, however, and one of [...]
