  • iRail updates

    I’ve made some more changes to iRail; small link (top, left corner) to refresh/go to the main page fixed an issue where the dropdown menus would display HH:MM when it should be HH+1:MM – e.g. if the time was 17h55, it would display 17h00 instead of 18h00 added a return/back button to the results page…

  • wget for Mac OS X

    The missing tool in Mac OS X is most likely wget. Here’s a (universal) port. Read the readme for installation howto. 🙂

  • WordPress iPhone plugin

    For those using the PDA & iPhone wordpress plugin, which turns your blog into something more readable on a mobile device, don’t forget to add the Google analytics script to your footer.php (in both iphone-theme and pda-theme directory). As other plugins seem to be disabled. This is actually also meant for me, as a reminder,…
