floIcon Download Favicon Fixed

Okay people, I know that the most popular thing on my site is the floIcon based icon assembler. So, if something is broken on the site, please let me know. I know that people use that. Anyways, I noticed this morning that there was a missing \ character in the favicon downloader feature on the floIcon page and I fixed it.

You can AIM me, my username is flobi. You can email me, flobi on this domain. incredinex if you happen to use Yahoo! or my email address on gmail or msnm. ... You know, I suppose I do have a message saying things might be broken, don't I? I'll have to update that. That page was supposed to be stable.

New HDD

I just got a new hard drive at work. Really, it was amazing. At my last job, I would have had to fill out a requisition form in triplicate, wait 3 weeks for approval, then wait another 3 weeks for the order to be made, wait 6 to 8 weeks for delivery, wait another 2 weeks for the guys to install it. Here, all I did was ask via instant messanger, "Can I have a bigger HDD?" within minutes, the boss-guy comes upstairs with a 400GB hard drive and hands it to me. Wow!

And there it is.

More info: HDD stands for Hard Disk Drive. My old drive was 30GB. The model of the new HDD is ST3400620A. When using DiskWizard to copy your old HDD to a new one, make sure you download the newest DiskWizard files and don't use the ones included with your new Seagate HDD.

New File Extension

Sorry to anyone spidering, but I've change the file extensions on all my files from HTML to PHP. This may give me the ability to do new stuff in the future. One of my co-workers informed me that I could use PHP as my file extension even with using blogger.com to run my blog. Can't do anything with it right now obviously (check time).

I think that using blogger.com is better than trying to have people register to my site. Most people who go out and read blogs already have a blogger login.

iPhone/iPod Touch Repository

Okay, I've started my own repository for iPhone/iPod Touch applications. I've added MultiPod (see a few posts ago). Anyone who has a Jailbroken iPhone/iPod Touch can add my repository by the normal means. The address is http://i.flobi.com and I named it that for ease of entry. (You're welcome.) If you go in a browser, I recommend Safari as it's designed for that browser specifically.

MultiPod

Here's a quick upload of my program MultiPod that I've been working on in spare time. This is my first and only iPod application. It makes it so that you can swap multiple music/video/pic/bookmark libraries so that you can sync with multiple computers or convince your computer you have multiple iPods (or both!). It also allows you to require a password to be entered when switching to a library for those who may have sensitive information in your media.

Note: It does not currently swap contacts, calendars or any other application data.

Screenshots:


Installation:
First of all, you must have a Jailbroken iPhone or iPod Touch (though this hasn't been tested on iPhone) with firmware 1.1.4. Reason for firmware requiment: paths changed. A version for 1.1.3 and lower could be made if requested.

Use the installer to install the Jiggy Runtime.

UPDATE: View this post to add my iPhone/iPod Touch Repository.  You will now find MultiPod under Utilities with SwapTunes and other similar programs.  

When you run MultiPod, it will automatically detect the current configuration and assign it to the first position. To change the name of an entry, use iTunes; the entry will be named the same as the name iTunes gives the device.

New Blog Location

I was thinking about it, there's no need for my blog to be in a subdirectory. I appologize to anyone who was using a feed, it has moved too (check link to left). So, now, instead of http://www.flobi.com/blogger/, it's just http://www.flobi.com/ right here, main page of the site. The old techie stuff (not that my blog won't have techie stuff now and then) is still available here: http://www.flobi.com/techstuff.php.
