The Rumours of Our Death have been Greatly Exaggerated
by Eric March on July 7, 2008 at 7:19 pm
No, we’re not dead, but once again, life is throwing a dozen different things in our paths that have us juggling them as best we can, and for the most part, those life obligations tend to take priority over the blog, sadly. We’re still alive and kicking though, even if we seem to be very quiet at the moment. With the 3G launch a mere four days away you can be sure we’ll be covering as much of it as we can. I would personally like to be able to get down to an Apple Store to cover the event, but my scheduling at the moment doesn’t make that very likely — so once again I will just have to live vicariously through the blogs and newswires of others to cover whatever event information becomes available.
I have company over at the moment but hopefully I’ll be able to come back a little later on this evening to post a thing or two about a thing or two.
I also got a pretty awesome add-on for the latest Firefox called ScribeFire which lets me publish rich content to the blog from wherever I am without having to deal with WordPress’ blasted POS editor, so blogging will end up becoming considerably easier.
Patience, friends.

Haha thank god =)! I love this site, and found it amazing when you guys were posting 5-7 stories a day! But lately I guess you have been involved in your own life, but I really hope you start posting a lot, because this is what keeps me updated!
Thanks,
numb

Not to worry. We are going to have a new contributor to the blog in the next day or so. Keep an eye out for more stories posted from three of us.

HURRAH! With 2.0 mere days away, it’s about time you were back:)
Scribefire is awesome. I LOATHE Wordpress’ editor. Oh lord that thing is horrendous. But Scribefire is very cool indeed. Been using it for a while myself.

Oh, I know all about it. That stupid editor munches code, doesn’t properly apply image titles, it’s slow, the image handler is utter and complete crap … whoever thought that stupid editor was a good thing needs to be taken out back and flogged for an hour or two. If I knew PHP well enough I’d go to town on the editor’s source and get it to leave my code the hell alone — among many other things.
Fortunately ScribeFire has saved me from pulling all of my hair out. Brilliant plugin, that. I like their idea for an ad aggregator too; I may just sign up for that instead of relying solely on AdSense, depending on how they make it work.
