iPhone App

In the process of moving everything to this site, I have really come to appreciate the WordPress iPhone app.

Editing, deleting and now posting from it is a breeze. Not sure what has changed since I last tried it, but the experience is now way soothed than I remembered.

It’s worked out so well I have linked all sites I have done using WordPress so that I can perform quick changes for clients on the road.

Now if that iPad becomes a reality, I can see this app being one of the first installed, along with Teamveiwer (more on that another time).

Operation consolidation

Posts and pages transferred from keltik.ie so that’s all good. Having trouble exporting links, but they can be set up easily enough. My only issue now is a new theme, one that fits the work and home nature of the site. That’ll have to wait for a bit as I have a ton of reading to do.

I am back!

As it says, I am back. I’ve re-discovered my abandoned blog, after being sidetracked by Facebook, Twitter and other stuff. This rediscovery also comes with new plans to keep the blog active and useful to someone other than myself. If it does become useful who knows it may get read by someone other than myself.

The first change will probably to drop this highly chit chat tone and try to develop a more readable “voice” the second and more immediate change will be to incorporate the content from my other site at www.keltik.ie and combine my work and play websites in the same way that work and play are tightly integrated in my real life.

I believe that these days work, kids, home and social life are bound very closely for a certain type of person, of which I am one and I believe there a lot of us around. If you are like me you’ll get it, if not you will wonder what the …. is this site / person on about. I believe my existing clients and customers will be as supportive as ever, thank you all.

Joining the IT dots.

Sometimes, either through being set in our ways, or just overcome with all the gadgets and technology in our lives, we miss the opportunity to see how these things could work together. Sometime getting them running together can improve our lives, or at least make it run a bit smoother.

If you or your business use the any (or all) of the following products/services:

GMail - Google Calendar – Contacts

MS Outlook

iPhone / Blackberry

Media Streaming – 360 – PS3 – media PC

Windows Live Mesh

Offline backup

Then there are ways to integrate and make these work together in tandem.

For my existing clients I now spend more and more time improving how their existing tech is used and showing how free services can be incorporated to their existing IT strategy.

This is as a direct result of the current economic climate, people need to get more out of what they have and  free and open source solutions offer viable solutions to previously expensive to solve problems.

If you would like a free consultation regarding your existing tech setup and more information about how open source software, social media (Facebook, Bebo, Twitter) and other cost saving, productivity improving measures please contact Jason on 087 20 30 355 or email.

Remote support.

In order to improve response time Keltik support is now available remotely.

Using the latest remote access software from Citrix, which provides secure end to end SSL 128bit encryption between the client and the support representative, we can now diagnose and solve many of the issues faced by our clients faster than ever before.

Initially only available to contract clients, it is hoped to make the service available to non-contract customers in the near future.

iPhone app fail

Big long post from iPhone disappeared and lost to the ether. This will probably do the same, shame.

Edit: nope the short one worked, I’ll have to test further maybe only short posts work.

Middle Earth gone psychedelic.

Yesterday evening I was taking a rest, strolling around The Shire, placing bets on fat hobbits racing, returning spoiled pies and generally enjoying myself in a lazy half assed kind of way.

The scenery in The Shire is stunning and due to the lack of anything dangerous it is usually a nice place to spend an hour fishing and performing minor quests.

 

One of my favoured fishing spots in Hobbiton.

Now I’m not sure if someone slipped a dodgy toadstool into one of my packs but all of a sudden and without warning everything changed!

 

Trippy trees

Floating faces

All very strange and I swear I’ll never eat another mushroom stew unless I pick the the mushrooms myself.

Luckily “Alt-Tab” rectified the problem and everything returned to normal.

 

Back to normality (kind of anyways)
