Mp3Tag:Add Album Art Easily for Songs in iPhone

Sunday, October 14th, 2007

As said,

“Mp3tag is a powerful and yet easy-to-use tool to edit metadata (ID3, Vorbis Comments and APE) of common audio formats.”

I love two of its features most:
1. batch edit tag info
Just add the album songs into Mp3Tag then edit as whatever you want. very awesome.

2. get album art from online database like amazon.
since this feature highly depend on your orginal mp3′s orginal tag info which most likely are very few sometimes even wrong,  I for now still use google image search to get the picture for the album manually, then set it with the above feature.

Of course, Mp3Tag is free. I love freeware :-)
And sure you can donate to them if you could.

How To Track iPhone’s Latest News

Tuesday, September 4th, 2007

Thanks God, We have internet ! :-)

For me, I use two work-arounds:

1. Google Alert.

Type ‘iphone’ into search term textbox and enter your email, you’re done. simple and easy.

The cons of alert is not so latest, compared with the following methods, if you’ve got enough time. Otherwise, Alert is your best bet.

2. Hackintosh’s iPhone forum.

I believe in the power of community :-)

3. Google News Search and Blog Search for iphone.

Based on my experience, Blog Search can give you more recent news than News Search. I’m sure that’s because the latter represents a more formal and confirmed version of news.

Anyway, I use both.

iPhone App on Google Code

Saturday, August 18th, 2007

Actually you does have a very convenient way to find those 3rd  iPhone  native applications on the web: Google code search with the keyword ‘iphone’.

Even though so far there’s only 43 results, several of them have been mentioned and blogged many times and does worth of your attention and time, like iPhone NES Emulatormobileterminal , and the one i’m gonna try myself on the iPhone: mobilelauncher.

One of them should be  listed here: manzana – .NET API for interacting with the Apple iPhone, which provides the possibilities of more hackings on Windows platform. I do have an expectation on it.

P.S. Attach the google code search result here, for later check how fast and many the talented iphone developers make the applications in the world :-)

One more from Engaget.

It’s too early to make the decision. But given the known infomation, for me, I still prefer iPhone.

Reason? Simple: iPhone’s unique user experience, like pintch and scroll. And i love it. So far I can t see any clues that Swith( name of Google Phone) could beyone that.

Your choice?
