My Two Year Old Daughter Playing the Piano

My iPhone 3GS has video capture capability and I plan to use this frequently whenever my daughter does something cute.

Siena loves plaing the piano and I think she’s quite good at it already. In a few years, hopefully she’ll still be interested and actively taking piano lessons.

Glympse for iPhone – Share Your Location with Friends

Glympse is an app that uses the iPhone’s internal GPS to transmit coordinate information to a website allowing others to track your position on a map. While this sounds like it could be a stalker’s dream app, the idea behind Glympse is that the user can send a “glympse” to an email address or as an SMS text message, inviting only those the user trusts to view their location – and then only for a set time period the user controls. Right now I’m using it to track my wife’s progress as she drives home from Portland in the rain. The app updates her position on the map every 10 seconds or so, giving me a glimpse of her location and speed (so I know she’s safe). Think of this as a peace-of-mind app, and its free no less (at least for now).

New iPhone 3GS (well not new but new to me)

Not that I can see the screen or anything, but I’m now the proud owner of a new 3gs.

She had been wanting an iPhone to blog and tweet on the go and we both were aware AT&T had a current  $50 iPhone 3GS promo. We walked in thinking we’d fix her phone and walked out with a pair of new 3GSs. I was teased by my friends in the past for still clinging to my first gen iPhone and I now understand why. Now if I can get figure out how to get my apps transferred…
