Drupal Wallpaper-Dark

I have been on a bit of a wallpaper kick this past week. I really wanted a dark themed Drupal wallpaper and couldn't find one. I created my own using the striped black background and the Drupal logo EPS file from drupal.org.

Shrop's Favorite iPhone Apps

logo.gifOkay, I finally got around to listing the iPhone apps I use a lot on iusethis.com. A few aren't on the site and I didn't have time to add them as new apps.

Check out my list here: http://iphone.iusethis.com/user/shrop

Feel free to comment on apps that you like too.

Twittelator Pro

Twittelator Pro App IconEver since the iPhone 2.0 firmware was released, I have been searching for a native Twitter app that will give me most, if not all, of the features included with the great web based Twitter app, Hahlo (www.hahlo.com). The main advantages of a native app is that you don't have to fire up Mobile Safari and your account information can be saved in settings.

The Drupal Song Ringtone

So I was a bit bored with my iPhone ringtones. I Decided to create a ringtone from Jeff Robbins' "The Drupal Song." You can download the ringtone I created below. Once downloaded, double click the file and it will be added to your iTunes library under the ringtones category.

I completed all of the meta data I could, including a reference to the original song blog post http://www.lullabot.com/audiocast/the_drupal_song.

Enjoy!!!

I BeatMaker app iconam just loving BeatMaker. BeatMaker is a music application for the iPhone that is similar to other loop creations applications like Reason. It is available at in the iTunes App Store. You can read more about it here: http://www.intua.net/products.html

Refund for NetShare

I feel like one of the lucky US iTunes users who was able to quickly purchase the application NetShare while it was available in iTunes for a few hours two weeks ago. NetShare allows you to surf the web on a wireless computer/laptop using your iPhone's Internet connection.

Other thoughts about my 3G iPhone adventures since Friday:

  • Got in line around 6:40 am Friday for the 3G iPhone purchase. Walked out the door with a working 3G iPhone around 10:30am and a non activated 1st gen iPhone for my Wife. Wasn't able to activate her phone at home till around 4pm due to the iTunes activation issues. I then restored her iPhone to the official 2.0 firmware without restoring data so she had a fresh phone to start. She loves it BTW!
