Gadgetry

I recently got an iphone. It's an amazing little gadget, and while it hasn't solved all of my problems, it continues to fascinate me. Let me give you a forinstance. I paid $1.99 for an app that allows me to upload pictures stored on the phone to any folder I choose on my webserver (via FTP). With a few lines of code I can display (for example) the latest uploaded picture. What you see in the left sidebar is the result. I'm sure all the other smartphones do this stuff too but I've never used any of them. The sudden availability of all these apps is a bit overwhelming and sure there's a lot of crap but by god there's some useful and interesting stuff out there too and a lot of it's free. But don't listen to me, I'm still amazed at the convenience of being able to check email from the street and to google-map myself at all hours.
