Epidemic – Feed a Fever

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

fever-fluid.pngShaun Inman has released his server-based feed reader, Fever.

I have just installed it (quite easily) and imported my feeds from NetNewsWire.

However, I think that it does need a lot of feeds to make the most out of it. What would be good as an ancillary service would be a web site called ‘Epidemic/Pandemic’. You could browse categories that you’re interested in e.g. Apple, Graphic Design, Photography, Environment, CSS etc. and download an opml file of all of the feeds in that category. Web site designers/companies, could submit their feeds to the directory and category of their choice.

Of course, it would need some looking after as there is the potential for some ’spammy goings-on’, but I’m certain it could be possible. Perhaps there’s a good one already. Who knows?

Choosing a colour scheme for your new business

color-scheme-designerHere’s a free web-based tool that will give you a bit of design inspiration when you’re looking for a colour that reflects your new business. There are many others around, but this one just pinged-up in my feed reader so I thought I might as well share it with you all.

My favourite is still Kuler by Adobe, though.

Chumby Store is now shipping!

Sunday, October 28th, 2007

I’d totally forgotten about these cool little gadgets until an email pinged-in this morning from the Chumby store. I remember seeing them on Diggnation probably over a year ago.

What is a chumby?
The chumby is a compact device that displays useful and entertaining information from the web: news, photos, music, celebrity gossip, weather, box scores, blogs — using your wireless internet connection. Always on, it shows — nonstop — what’s online that matters to you.

Why would i want one?
It’s just pure 24/7 gratification to be able to have the Internet on tap. Sure, you can get the same information on your computer, but why be stuck behind a keyboard to enjoy your internet addictions?

How much is a chumby?
The chumby costs under $200.

how much does it cost to access the chumby network?
Access to the Chumby Network is FREE. No subscriptions to pay, no plans to sign up for. It’s paid for by Chumby Industries and by sponsor companies who will be sending you widgets such as music, games, movie previews, customized alarm clocks, and special offers for products and prizes (called “Chumbooty” — coming soon), and who knows what else the future holds? Chumby Industries is 100% dedicated to keeping your widget channels new, intriguing, fun and FREE.

What are the features of the chumby?
Wi-fi connectivity • access to the free Chumby Network • 3.5″ LCD color touchscreen • two external USB 2.0 full-speed ports • 350 MHz ARM processor • 64 MB SDRAM • 64 MB NAND flash ROM • stereo 2W speakers • headphone output • squeeze sensor • accelerometer (motion sensor) • leather casing • AC adapter included
