MiniChimp – MailChimp for BlackBerry
I’ve built another BlackBerry application through Keone Software, called MiniChimp. MiniChimp brings MailChimp campaign stats to the BlackBerry. Hooray for applications with APIs! It’s in beta, so go download and test it out it if you are interested.
FreshBooks referrals count Greasemonkey script
The FreshBooks page that shows referral information was lacking a quick way to see a count of the total number of referrals and how many of them have signed up for service. So, I whipped up a quick Greasemonkey script to show the totals at the top of the page. It’s really quite basic, but [...]
Book Keeper, FreshBooks for BlackBerry, released to public!
I’ve released Book Keeper, my FreshBooks BlackBerry application to the public. It’s still a “beta”, though it’s been through a private beta and is pretty solid, but I’ve still got features to iron out along the way. Come and grab a download!
Life Hacking
Over the last year or so, I’ve taken to heart the mindset of automating frequent / mundane tasks. Yesterday, I realized I was constantly annoyed at dealing with my development environment when I switch locations/ IP addresses. I’m working on a project that uses Informix, which doesn’t bind to the network in such a way [...]
Thoughts on HTC Magic Android Phone

Want a Free Book on Grails?
I’ve been into Grails for a while and bought The Definitive Guide to Grails (first Edition) a while ago. The book is a good intro for beginners or a good reference for developers who have already built an app and gone through the online tutorials. I actually bought the book after I’d worked [...]
FreshBerry – The FreshBooks BlackBerry Application
[NOTE: This application has been renamed "Book Keeper" and is now available to the public at: http://www.bookkeeperapp.com ]
How’s that for a title, “Fresh” and “Berry” all over the place. I’m finally venturing into the Micro ISV arena and building a BlackBerry application for FreshBooks. It’s set to Beta around the end of February with a [...]
Freshbooks Greasemonkey Script – Select All Projects
I just created another greasemonkey script for Freshbooks. This one lets me select all projects easily from the generate invoice page. I have a client that I invoice bi-weekly and their book keeping requires me to have several separate projects setup. Minor annoyance to always select them all, so I created a little script to [...]
