MooTools – Startup Schwag For The Month
Aug 28th, 2009 by (jeff)isageek

mootools

So I got home today and sitting there on the front porch was my monthly Startup Schwag bag!!!!  I always get excited wondering what will be in the bag this month.  So I ran inside ripped open the bag to find this months shirt is from MooTools.

The Fortress Of Solitude

Wondering what MooTools is exactly?  Well here ya go :

MooTools is a compact, modular, Object-Oriented JavaScript framework designed for the intermediate to advanced JavaScript developer. It allows you to write powerful, flexible, and cross-browser code with its elegant, well documented, and coherent API.

MooTools code respects strict standards and doesn’t throw any warnings. It’s extensively documented and has meaningful variable names: a joy to browse and a snap to understand.

So there ya have it another great shirt from the gang over at startup schwag! They have had some really good ones lately and I always look forward to the next package each month.

[An added note I wanted to say congrats to Startup Schwag for their 2 year anniversary coming up...been with ya since the beginning]

Need Some Wallpapers For Your Palm Pre?
Aug 27th, 2009 by (jeff)isageek

palmpre

So I found a kool group on flickr that has a pretty big collection of pictures that are the right size for your Palm Pre wallpaper (which i believe is 320×480).

Two many to decide which one to use?  Why don’t you use Switcharoo which is a homebrew app that allows you to switch your wallpaper on your Pre in an interval of your liking.

switcharoo0.9.3

Do you have some kool wallpaper/background images?  maybe a link to a nice collection?  Share with everyone whatcha got!

Palm Pre : Getting Your Homebrewing On!!
Aug 26th, 2009 by (jeff)isageek

precentral-logo

Are you a Palm Pre user?  Are you maybe not happy with the number of apps that are available in the official app store?  Well there is an answer for you and it has (at the writing of this blog) 160 apps and growing!

With the homebrew apps directory provided by PreCentral.net you can get lots of apps out there that can help you customize your Pre how you want it, games, productivity apps, twitter apps, ect ect. created by developers and Pre users like yourself.

fcoaster_2009-06-08_081228

Now in order to get the functionality of the homebrew apps you have to follow a few directions but it really is not to complicated and to help with the process check out this How To : Install Homebrew apps which is very good and makes the process very simple.

Basically you need the most updated version of java, one little app to run on your machine (for just the first time then you can use filecoaster for adding apps directly on your Pre), and of course the kool code for unlocking the developer mode “upupdowndownleftrightleftrightbastart” (thats awesome!).

For me having the homebrew stuff is a big plus and reason I am really looking forward to getting my Pre.  If you decide you are interested in getting into them and have some questions on how to get everything up and running feel free to contact me anytime either via email or shoot me a message on twitter…..I would love to help you out the best I can.

The Palm Pre : A New Era For (jeff)isageek
Aug 25th, 2009 by (jeff)isageek

sprint-palm-pre

Thats right!!! With Tuesday almost over I am now officially under a week before I purchase my new phone which if you don’t follow me around the internet will be the Palm Pre! I cannot wait! I have been playing around with the SDK, emulator, other people’s Palm Pre’s and following all the talk the forums.

There are a lot of things I am looking forward to with the Pre like better notifications then I am use to with my current phone, the great integration with many google services, great multitasking, using it with itunes and pandora, and adding apps as they come along (which is slowly becoming more and more daily).

Those are just a few things and I am sure I am missing a few but overall I am just looking for a kool new experience with a phone that so far I have really enjoyed learning all about!

You can bet over the next week and beyond I will have more on my thoughts and kool stuff I find out there on the interweb.

[side note] a great site with lots of info, blog, and great forum is precentral.net if you are looking for information
