The post immediately preceding this may in fact be proved wrong. Latest news is that the Republicans may actually be backing down on the financial regulation bill. If so it will be at least partly because the Democrats have been more aggressive this time around.
I will confess here that I really don’t have much more to say. I am mainly writing this post as an experiment. It is being composed on my Ipad using software developed by the WordPress folks. I’m really mainly interested in seeing how and how well it works. I’m cheating a bit since I’m using a bluetooth keyboard that we have hanging around. If this post seems a bit breathless it has to do with the reason the keyboard has been hanging around. It works except for the comma key. So full stops or nothing. Only problem is that there is no way to easily embed links. Hopefully that will be in the next update.
Speaking of Ipads I am slowly bankrupting myself a few dollars at a time. It would be so much better if they charged ten times more for apps as I would probably have spent 10 times less than I have. Some of these apps are truly remarkable for the price. I just downloaded one called “StreamToMe” that will stream any of your music or video content (except anything protected by DRM) to your Ipad from your computer. At $2.99 it’s a steal. It works great and basically allows you to access your entire Itunes collection from your Ipad without putting any of it on the Ipad itself. Not as easy to navigate and of course until we get multitasking it won’t play in the background but those are minor inconveniences given the price.
Well if this experiment has taught me anything it is that this works in a pinch and that I need to get myself a keyboard with a working comma key.
UPDATE: For about a day there were some unexplained pictures in this post. Those were also an experiment using the WordPress software. It allows you to browse your photos, but the method of inserting them is not explained, and there is no indication on the draft post that you have done so. Anyway, I’ve taken them down.
