Have you been looking for a way to test your iPhone application or to try that new iPhone game “online” ?

IPhone Emulator vs. IPhone Simulator

Make sure that you know the difference between simulator and emulator. An emulator can run the real iPhone applications while a simulator only simulates functonalities. If you want to play the iPhone games, you will need an emulator!

It’s Blue Blu!

The uber-awesome-incredible Twitter Client:

Blu Twitter Client

Download it here.

It’s Twitter on a whole new level. The client itself is very stylish and has a lot of fun features. A little blue bobble is moving from time to time, when you enter a message a big number is counting down (140 is max) in the background and most importantly you can add certain tweeps to your “favorites”. It’s a waste of time if you would try to unfollow all the people you don’t want to listen to, instead mark all those tweeps who deserve it as your “favorite”.

One of the best twitter clients out there, if not the best. And it is working totally fine on Windows 7!

Wouldn’t it be great to wake up and hear your favorite songs in the background?

Many people already have a wake up playlist or just use the built-in radio many alarm clocks have.

If you don’t have an alarm clock with a built-in radio or anything similar, here’s an easy solution for everyone.

One of the best tools to set up a wake up playlist is Jakes Alarm Clock. The website looks like it’s from the 90′s and the tool doesn’t have a fancy web 2.0 like interface – but it does what it promises and it’s very easy to manage your alerts! It even runs smoothly on Windows 7 (which I currently use).

I’ve just added “David Bowie – Let’s Dance” to my wake up playlist. I love that song!

What do you add to your playlist?

Cheers!

Well, at the moment there is quite a hype about the Kindle 2.0.

The Kindle is an eBook Reader that allows you to read eBooks on a mobile device with a large screen and very sharp text. The text on the display is as sharp as a newspaper: Eink Technology (electronic ink) is a big advantage and will even allow you to read in the sunlight.

Because everything on this blog is about Vista, I thought I would try to find out which eBook Reader does fully support Vista and which not.

First of all I suggest to get an overview of all good readers here:

One of the new Windows 7 features is called AeroSnap, which improves the management of desktop windows. You can maximize/minimize desktop windows by dragging a window to the taskbar; if you drag it to the left side of the screen it will automatically fill half of the screen. This can be helpful if you have to switch between applications a lot or if you want to split windows.
For designers this might come in handy to place working tools on the right side of the screen and the image itself on the left side. By the way it will also work on two monitors!
