Wordmobi on Nokia E71

June 21st, 2009 Patrick No comments

I just stumbled on Wordmobi , a WordPress client for the Nokia E71 written in Python. Installing was very easy and after a quick configure of the app I created a short post with it. Works very well. I only find the “Posted by Wordmobi” that’s added to the end of each post pretty annoying. Anyone know how to make it stop doing that?

The book meme

The instructions:

Grab the nearest book, open it at page 56, find the fifth sentence and post the text of the sentence in your blog along with these instructions. Don’t pick your favourite book, the cool book or the intellectual one. Pick the closest.

The results (two books since I could not decide which one was closer):

“Each separate LE layer needs a different MAC address, but can share the same physical ATM connection (adapter).” from TCP/IP Tutorial and Technical Overview by Adolfo Rodriquez, John Gatrell, John Karas and Roland Peschke (IBM Redbooks)

“At any rate, these facts were all new to Lieutenant Bart” from The Confusion (Volume Two of The Baroque Cycle) by Neal Stephenson.
