Facebook photo upload via iPhone

Upload not currently working, see details here; http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=6628568379&topic=15740#topic_top

Here is a workaround; Go to here http://www.facebook.com/mobile/ and get a unique email address for uploading photos. Then use email address that Facebook recognises as you to send the photo (copy and paste it in a blank email). Takes a few moments, plus you can't write a caption. Good workaround though.

iPhone iPod tip

Great new tip. If the iPod is running on your iPhone, double pressing the home button brings up the iPod controller. Which lets you fast forward and rewind, and jump to your iPod. Great!

IPhone OS 4.0 - I love it




The iPhone OS looks great. The reveal shown on Engadget
http://i.engadget.com/2010/04/08/live-from-apples-iphone-os-4-event
Here are my thoughts;



1. Multitasking looks excellent. Now I can put the radio or Spotify/Lastfm in the background. How do you close apps though. Apple said you don't, but if all apps remain open, you'll have a lot to scroll through.



2. Folders. An excellent way of organising the home screen. This is great... Because past my 3rd screen it is a mess, and it will be great to organise, and not be limited by the 180+ limit of apps on the home screen.

3 Desktop picture; finally!

4 Digital zoom 5x. Excellent! I wonder if newest iPhone will get a flash?



5 ibooks. I've already used ebooks on my iPhone, and they work well. But it will be great to have a facility hooked up to the iTunes payment system.

What I'm not so excited about;



1 Integrated inbox - I personally like having them sepatated... How are you going to specify which account the mail should come from.

2 iAds great more ads, great :-(
