  • Who needs a top sheet and comforter when you have a cat that insists on plastering herself against you when you get to bed? #
  • @jimh Yeah, I had a few in mind too. ;-) Additionally, their domain/url forwarding is javascript-based, kinda lame. But free is free. #

  • @Big_Red89 Let me know how it works for you. #
  • @Dropbox Just installed it. Looks great, and seems to work like charm. #dropbox #android #

Ping.fm for webOS

<1 min read

I just released my first Palm webOS application.

Ping.fm for webOS

A simple and free client for the popular Ping.fm service.

Ping.fm is a simple and free service that makes updating your social networks a snap. Post from anywhere, to anywhere.

This application uses the Ping.fm API but is not endorsed or certified by Ping.fm.

It is now available in the Palm App Catalog.

I actually wrote it late last year, but had to wait for Palm to enable web distribution of beta applications, and then, wait for Ping.fm to activate my API key (Thanks, Sean).

Of course nothing would have happened without Dion. He provided me with a Palm Pre, and even tested the app for me. Thanks, mate.

If you want to look at the source code, it can be found in my subversion repository.
