Lightweight Wiki for Windows Mobile devices

TiddlyWiki 2.1.3 on Opera 8.6 for Windows Mobile 5

Monday, December 11th, 2006

I just found that TiddlyWiki 2.1.3 runs quite well on my Windows Mobile 5.0 PDAphone. It does need the USD29 (30 days trial) Opera 8.6 browser. WM5’s Pocket IE is too puny to run the JavaScript required for TiddlyWiki.

However, the QVGA (320x240) screen resolution of WM5 PDAs does require tweaking the CSS of TiddlyWiki […]

Eclipse, Visual Studio, NetBeans and WebSphere

Saturday, May 21st, 2005

One of my colleagues, an experienced Visual Studio developer, recently had a look at IBM’s Websphere development environment and was enamoured by it. I think he would be interested in what the industry is saying about Eclipse (and NetBeans for that matter). I wasn’t wrong, in pointing him towards Eclipse, was I? ;-)

IBM Websphere and […]

CardExAsia 2005

Tuesday, May 17th, 2005

Today I managed to squeeze some time to visit PWTC for the annual Smartcard Exhibition running on 17-19 May 2005. My impression is that this year’s is smaller than last, or it could just be my memory. Anyway, I did find a few interesting exhibits, as well as finally applying for MyKad ;-)

A better Nokia clam-shell than 7200?

Sunday, May 15th, 2005

My significant other decided to be generous, and left her Nokia 7200 on the back seat of a taxi. Needless to say, we couldn’t get it back. So now, I’m on the market for another Nokia clamshell with the following specs …

Clamshell - she really likes to physically close the phone, though a slide cover […]

MSC Flagships Status

Sunday, May 8th, 2005

I wondered what’s the current status of the 7 MSC flagships. The official updates status was as of one year ago, I’d guess they’ll update that just in time (JIT) before the next MSC Expo in September 2005. ;-) Excerpts of that with some additional notes of mine …

Saturday, May 7th, 2005

However in the US a competing 2D barcode, Semacode, is a bit more known. The two sample 2D barcodes encode the URL http://www.sabre23t.com in both QR Code and Semacode format.
