Google Analytics Finally Arrives For iPhone and iPod Touch

analytics

I was waiting for this for a loong looong time. Finally Michael Jensen decided to create such an application for this wonderful device. If you are a blogger, or a website owner, or basically you got anything going own on the www. , than i can place a safe bet that you are obsessed with this word ” analytics ” . I was until like 2 months ago. I was checking my stats every hour. Until i realized that, it was useless to do so.

That doesnt mean, that i stopped checking my analytics. Not at all, but now i calculate every move i make in this world. Anyway, this post is not about me teaching you how to blog. So let’s get back to the main subject. GOOGLE ANALYTICS ON MY ( and yours ) iPhone !!!!!!! I was really surprised when I’ve stumbled upon Analytics App.com

When you first load the app , it will ask you to insert the email address and the password that you use to login into your Google Analytics account. This is usually your gmail address and password. Once you are logged in, you step into the wonderful world of analytics, but now, this world is ON THE GO.

Continuing this post is useless. If you are interested in something like this, and you are reading this post, that means that my writing journey for this post stops here. I don’t need to explain any further what is analytics, what you can do with it and so on.

I will attach screenshots of this app below, and you can click on them to enlarge the pic and see what this app can offer you.

Cydia Now Available On The Web

ModMyi.com just made my dream come true. This statement is true or false? Well let’s see : not true, but not false. Why so confused? 🙂 Well they lunched something i wanted for a long time , which means that the statement its not false. But they didnt make my dream come true, because well… i dont have such low ambitions.

Anyway, they recently ( i believe ) released a web version of Cydia where you can search all the repos for apps. Cydia apps listings show basic information about each application as well as a screenshot. You can check webCydia ( thats how i call it ) here

Cydia™ is Debian APT on the iPhone. Think AppStore, but with packages you could never get direct through Apple. Created by Jay Freeman (saurik), Cydia™ is a feature-rich AppStore competitor. Full themes to completely make over your iPhone’s look are available through WinterBoard. Video recording is possible using Cycorder or Video Recorder for 3G. You can share your iPhone’s 3G connection with your laptop using PdaNet, or get free music, videos, and torrents using dTunes. Take complete control of your iPhone with SBSettings.

You’ll find Cydia™ right there on your iPhone after you jailbreak your iPhone. Using it is easy – browse the categories, check what’s new, or peruse the featured section to see the current popular apps. There’s hundreds (getting into the thousands) of themes to choose from. Cydia™ is easily searchable via the iPhone – but if you’re wanting to browse what’s available from your browser, that’s what this section of ModMyi.com is for.

Jaadu VNC for iPhone

This is a guest post by iRoc, and today he is going to fill you in on one of his most favorite apps :  Jaadu! icon

What exactly is Jaadu and why would I need it, You might ask. Well, let’s say you are at work and you need a file, but that file is on your computer at home. You could call home and try to talk someone through navigating to the file and sending it to you. Oh, but that almost always is a head ache at best. Wouldn’t be great if you could just get in touch with the Enterprise , and teleport back home and get the file? No Jaadu is not about to save you thousands on travel expenses or make your daily commute magically disappear. Though Jaadu was formerly known as Teleport, and it’s the next best thing to a real deal teleporter.

Jaddu will allow you to remotely access any of your computers anytime you want or need right from your iPhone. You will have 100% control over your distant computer, or the one that’s just out of arms reach if you want to roll that way. 100%? That’s right 100%!

Your desktop even shows on the iPhone screen. So you can navigate to the necessary file and send it to yourself via email, instant messenger, any way that you could send that file if you were sitting right there at your computer normally, and everyone is happy and you are the big hero of the day in your boss’s eye.

Here’s how I used it last. I was at the store and I saw a DVD for a movie I had been meaning to download and watch, but always seemed to forget when I was at my computer. So I reached in my pocket got out my iPhone called Scotty and said, “Scotty one for transport.” N o not really. I opened Jaddu selected my laptop at home. Opened Firefox, went to mininova.org and searched for the movie. Once I found it I started the download. I could even check back in periodically to see how the download was coming along. Anything you can do sitting at your computer with your keyboard and mouse you can do on the screen of your iPhone with Jaadu.

Download it from cydia, than load winterboard and select it. The springboard will respring and now you will see the icon above instead the normal preferences icon. That means that supreme preferences are activated.

Once you load the supreme preferences, you will notice a new section there ( supreme preferences ) where the majority of the new features are, but it will add some new features among the usual settings. ( note : this will not overwrite your old preferences or something like that. it just adds new stuff )

SNAPTELL – IMAGE RECOGNITION ON YOUR iPhone

Since the holiday/shopping season is here, i decided to present you another useful app for this time of year. Well, to be honest , this app is useful anytime so, let’s begin :

This is a simple and useful app , that uses iPhone’s camera to find more info about DVDs, CDs, Video Games, and Books.All you need to do is to point and shoot the cover of any or this items and you good to go. I was actually surprised on how accurate the search was. And not only that was accurate, it was quick and painless as well.

What do i mean by painless? I mean i didn’t need to take 2-3-4 shoots of one product , in order for the app to recognize it and send me the results.

Depending on the product, your options for additional information will be: Buy from Amazon.com, IMDb, GameSpot, WikiPedia, Rotten Tomato, or the Google and Yahoo search results. All of these locations load up right in the app itself.

The items that you’ve looked for will remain in the SnapTell Explorer screen until you delete it. Of course , you can leave all the info there for later reference.

This app looks and feel a lot like Amazon’s Remembers , but the only difference is that , SnapTell has a wider field of search.

All in all , this is a very useful app and best of all IT IS FREE and you can download it from the appstore.

JAILBREAK – LEGAL? SOON, MAYBE….

Do you know what DMCA ( Digital Millennium Copyright Act ) is? Well, it’s a law that Mr. Clinton signed like 10 yrs ago and that says something like “… it is illegal to produce or disseminate technology that is put in place to control access to copyrighted material.” or something like that. I dont care that much , because i dont live in US , and this law is not affecting me . But if you want to read more about it, you can do so here

Every couple of years, Library of Congress and some other dudes are looking for suggestions in order to revise the DMCA. Now ,this year a group by the name of Electronic Frontier Foundation is petitioning for the privilege of hacking smartphones ( read here the petition ).

What does that mean? Well if you got your iPhone jailbreaked , than you know that this is a copyright violation and that Apple ( they only do it in theory ) can sue you for modifying the firmwire. Now, if this petition is bullet proof and this are  some hardcore dudes , soon we can legally jailbreak our beloved iPhone and we wont loose the warranty for doing so. ( thats my only gain out of this lol )

SELF-MASSAGE TREATMENT FOR CONSTIPATION

I have been asked today to do a review for a site that offers solution to constipation problems. This is something i would normally not write about, well in this blog at least. But since this is the only blog i got ( i got like 4-5 others but i dont deal with them anymore ) and i thought it was funny as hell to be asked to write about ” constipation ” , well……. Anyway bare with me, cause as funny as it sounds, this is , in fact, a serious deal. I mean imagine yourself as a dead end street : all sorts of stuff are going in and nothing comes out.

Self-massage treatment constipation appears to be borrowed from China and this type of massage is closely related to acupuncture and considered to be effective for a similar range of health problems. Their website is presented to you in a very minimalistic design but pretty straight forward. The hilarious thing is that they actually answer the question ” What is constipation? “… i mean if you got on their site ( from google, or from blogs like mine, or a friend told you , really doesent matter ) , doesent that imply that you are pretty familiar with the term?
