“There are definitely some very interesting methods added to UIApplication’s delegate, including methods for badging the Springboard icon, and methods related to gaining and resigning “active” status - seems like background apps may be permitted somehow.” #
Interesting, I wonder how they’ll handle it (if they do allow some type of background apps, even with cron or something) because I still think they need to be careful. I’d love background apps, for a Google Reader app or a GTalk client but I don’t want my phone overbudened enough to affect the overall speed and stability of the phone.
Thanks to Nathan I was able to implement some javascript that would dynamically replace some eye-anchors through a query string in the URL on my company’s website.
We’ve been wanting to create some value propositions to our prospects on different marketing channels for a while now but until we get Omniture’s Test and Target we’ll have to settle for this little trick.
For our tests we’re going to take our normal landing pages and present different creative to our major channel, pay-per-click. Making sure we keep this test meaningful we’re keeping the old add copy and landing page but splitting the ad campaign, essentially making it a multi-variant test by splitting traffic to the same page with different query strings.
On to the technical side of things:
- Download Adam’s JS here
- Upload the code to your server and reference it in the header of your pages like so,
<script src=“http://dancameron.org/qs.js”></script></head>
- Create your script and objects. Below is what I use to swap out the image.
<script>
/* Query String Script ask DanC to modify or use */
var qs = new Querystring();
var img=qs.get(’img’,'http://dancameron.org/default.jpg’);
var title=qs.get(’title’,'default tile’);
var url=qs.get(’url’,'default.url’);
var alt=qs.get(’alt’,'default.alt’);
document.write(’<a href=”‘+url+’”><img src=”‘+img+’” border=”0″ alt=”‘+alt+’” title=”‘+title+’”></a>’);
</script>
- Then I just add the strings to the URLs like,
http://test.com?img=http://dancameron.org/mytestimage.jpg&alt=blah&title=blah&url=http://google.com
My review of the wii smash bros. game…oh forget it this guy made a video instead.
If you’re looking to jailbreak or hack your iPhone you really need to check out ZiPhone. Forget about JailBreakMe.com, it doesn’t work on the newer firmware releases but the community and Zibri are working hard on keeping this app easy for all and up-to-date.
It’s as simple as running the program, clicking on one of two options and waiting for your phone to finish updating.
I haven’t unlocked or upgraded my baseband yet but when the 3G phone comes out I’m planning to unlock this one and sell it on eBay or craigslist. I’ll probably post about it when the time comes around.
I just committed search everything 4.5 to wordpress extend.
There are some major fixes for wordpress 2.5; like tag and category fixes and Japanese localization support. So go and update if you’re using it.
Thanks to all the wonderful contributers out there that’s help build SE for the last year.
There are some other issues that need some attention, but I don’t even have time to write this post, so please help me out like Chris Meller and jdleung did this time around; even pointing out the obvious helps these days.
